Waxwing Hotel
photoThe Waxwing Hotel was the only functioning hotel when we visited Antakya in April 2024. The reason is that it had been "retrofitted" about three months prior to the earthquake in February 2023. Notice, that the buildings around it had collapsed and much of the debris had been trucked off.
