Lebanon's former premier Rafiq Hariri was assassinated in a massive car bomb explosion outside the hotel on February 14. The owner of the hotel, Fady Khoury, was slightly wounded in the attack which he said cost him losses worth millions of dollars. The hotel, overlooking the Mediterranean, had been badly damaged during the famous 'hotels battle' in 1976 at the start of the Lebanese civil war and was still under reconstruction. Only the pool area has been refurbished and open to the public. AFP PHOTO/PATRICK BAZ (Photo credit should read PATRICK BAZ/AFP/Getty Images)
