Aden Hotels
Aden hotels are an
interesting subject as their history is proving a
little tricky to piece together. Thus, this topic is
being updated frequently.
During the 1960's, apart from catering to a
number of semi-permanent residents the principal
hotels had groups of rooms committed for RAF or
civil airline air crews who would night-stop.
