The Royal Tulip Al Rasheed Hotel (sometimes spelled Al-Rashid) (Arabic, فندق الرشيد) is an 18-story hotel in Baghdad, Iraq, often visited by journalists and media personnel due to its location within Baghdad's Green Zone. It is named after the eighth century Caliph Harun Al-Rashid. It has been a focal point in a number of conflicts in the region, most recently the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq.
