Home to ancient holy sites, breathtaking mountains and buzzing cities, Iraq still has a lot to offer despite its troubled past. Located in the heart of Mesopotamia where the first great civilsations were founded, it radiates with old-world charm.
Iraq’s capital of Baghdad is also its cultural core, with a National Museum and various sights including the Monument to the Unknown Soldier, Al-Shaheed Monument and the Al Kadhimain Shrine.
The archaeological site at Ashur is the former capital of the Assyrian Empire and many temple and palace remains have been excavated in recent times. You can explore further ruins at the sites of Ctesiphon and the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hatra.
The Iraqi Kurdistan region in the north is also worth exploring, defined by its waterfalls, mountains and natural springs. The area offers plenty of opportunities for hiking amongst these sights, as well as the large lake of Dokan and the ancient cave paintings at Gondik.
Currently, most accommodation comes in the form of hotels located in Erbil, the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan. A limited number of hotels are also available in Baghdad.

Superb five star boutique hotel, recently opened. Modern hotel with all you need, even brand new saunas, turkish bath, massage room, jacuzzis, gym etc. Breakfast is fantastic and delicious, served in a real Kurdish way in their fine dining restaurant next door. Everything here is exceptional and quite exclusive. Thanks to the managers and all the staff for receiving us in such a kind and special way. We strongly recommend it!

I had a wonderful experience during my stay. The lady at the reception was incredibly helpful and accommodating—she kindly allowed me a late check-out, which made my departure much more relaxed. Her friendly and professional attitude truly enhanced my stay. Thank you for the excellent service!
