Beyond the arches, an evening in Damascus

A room made for a grand entrance.

The heart of Ammoora, the Damascene Dining Room brings the romance and grandeur of Damascus to Baltimore. Natural stone floors, soaring columns, flowing drapery and the gentle sound of a mosaic tiled fountain create a setting that feels transportive from the moment guests enter.

Mother-of-pearl inlaid mirrors, handcrafted in Damascus, reflect the room’s warm glow and intricate details, pieces of Syrian artistry that give the space its unmistakable character. Elegant in scale yet intimate in feeling, the room transforms beautifully for candlelit dinners, milestone celebrations, weddings and grand receptions.

Designed for occasions meant to be remembered, the Damascene Dining Room offers a setting that needs little embellishment to feel extraordinary.

An intimate setting, designed to glow.

Warm, enveloping and quietly dramatic, the Reflection Room earns its name through layers of light and reflection. Bronze mirrored columns and a reflective ceiling catch the evening’s glow, while illuminated arched panels of intricate wood mosaic create a striking backdrop between sculptural curved bronze sconces.

A sweeping cream leather banquette wraps the room, softening its architectural lines as light moves across bronze, mirror and wood. The effect is intimate without feeling enclosed, rich in texture, flattering in candlelight and especially beautiful as evening settles in.

Opening directly onto the Damascene Dining Room, the Reflection Room remains connected to the energy of Ammoora while creating a setting that feels distinctly your own. Ideal for intimate celebrations, bridal dinners, business entertaining and gatherings designed around good company, beautiful surroundings and an evening meant to linger.

Every evening starts somewhere.

The Parlor brings a different energy to a private event at Ammoora. Cocktails around the House Bar, conversations tucked into curved banquettes, guests moving between tables and friends finding one another across the room. It feels glamorous and social, yet comfortable enough to make everyone want to stay awhile.

A trio of floor to ceiling hand painted murals on mother of pearl, framed within arches inspired by a Damascene liwan, gives the room its connection to Old Damascus. From there, the design becomes decidedly modern. Bronze accents wrap the bar, glass and bottles shimmer against mirror, and televisions disappear behind towering bronze panels when they are not part of the occasion.

Blush booths hug generous round tables beneath dramatic hanging lanterns, while a cinnamon leather serpentine banquette curves along the room, creating places to sit without separating anyone from the celebration. Light catches the mother of pearl, bronze and glass throughout the evening, adding warmth and a little drama to the room.

It is polished without being precious, intimate without being quiet, and particularly suited to events where cocktails, dinner and conversation are all part of the celebration.

The only ceiling made of sky.

Tucked away from the city, the Courtyard offers a private open air setting that feels almost discovered rather than entered. Stone walls surround hand set mosaic fountains, with jasmine and poppy overhead and the sound of water adding to the intimacy of the space.

For an event, it becomes its own little world. A long dinner beneath the evening sky, cocktails around the fountains, a bridal celebration filled with flowers, or a candlelit gathering that carries on after sunset. The courtyard is secluded enough to feel entirely yours, yet still unmistakably part of Ammoora.

As daylight fades and the fountains and surrounding stone begin to glow, the atmosphere shifts naturally from garden gathering to something more romantic and transportive.

For the night, the city disappears. The Courtyard is yours alone.

For Celebrations Best Shared Around One Table

Inspired by the liwan at the heart of traditional Damascene homes, this private dining room was made for the kind of gatherings that deserve to feel personal. One beautiful table anchors the space, surrounded by champagne velvet, intricate mosaic tile and mother of pearl mirrors brought from Damascus, each reflecting the warmth and movement of the celebration around them.

With seating for up to sixteen guests, the Liwan has an intimacy that larger rooms simply cannot recreate. Toasts are heard by everyone. Conversation travels easily from one end of the table to the other. Birthdays, family celebrations, bridal dinners and private business gatherings feel less like a reservation and more like having a beautiful space entirely to yourselves.
