Dar Zamaraia and Orient House

Dar Zamaria Hotel's building was built in the 17^th Century. This hotel earns its name after the Zamaria family that lived in it since the 18^th Century before it was converted by the Martini Co. to a boutique hotel. This oriental house was meticulously restored by the Martini Co. Its courtyard, sitting area (called Iiwan in Arabic), and halls have been converted into restaurants and resting areas. The rooms surrounding the patio of this house have been converted into cozy bedrooms that have their historical marvel preserved. In 2006, the Martini Co. purchased 3 oriental houses (about 30m away from Dar Zamaria) and has named them as the Orient House Hotel.

These hotels are set at Al-Jidaydah area, which is a historic area in Aleppo that is near many attractions such as the majestic Aleppo Citadel, many Aleppine historic souqs (marketplace) which have amazing hammams (oriental spa), and antique and silverware shops. This area was destroyed by Tamerlane in the 1400s. Al-Jidaydah was inhabited with Christians before the Mongol invasion. Therefore, this quarter contained historic Churches. After the former Christian inhabitants fled outside the city walls to a northwestern region of what has become part of Aleppo today, Al-Jidaydah was rebuilt by local brokers and has flourished into a highly developed quarter that has enchanting oriental palaces and courtyard houses. Many historic buildings in the Al-Jidaydah area were restored and converted to elegant museums, schools, hotels, and restaurants. This city has an eventful history.
