Entirely Syrian in its decor, the Damascene Room serves as
a VIP lounge for visiting VIP's. Its focal point, an elaborate marble
fountain overflowing into a series of pools lends the soothing affect of gently
rippling water. Seats line the walls offering guests the full effect of the room
Thick stripes of indigenous stone in yellow, black and white
form the walls. The colored stone sets off the painted wooden relief ceiling. The intricately inlaid
floor is as smooth as glass.
No detail has been overlooked here. The brass planters carry out the arabesque design. Even the sprinklers and
smoke detectors have been incorporated into the arabesques to retain the aesthetic harmony
of the room.
