In October 2009 Tatler declares, "Get there soon: Aleppo [Syria] is poised to become the chicest destination in the Middle East. "(Christian Louboutin bought a house there). "[It is] Marrakesh before the macchiato invasion." For accommodation in Aleppo, Tatler recommends the Mansouriya, "best hotel in the Middle East.... wonderful and theatrical." Harper's Bazaar adds, "None [of the hotels in Aleppo] is more sumptuous than the Mansouiriya Place in the Old City [Aleppo is its best destination for exotic souks]." It has nine rooms and is sited in a 16th century Ottoman Arabic house.
