Well, it isn't quite what you think.
In the Saddam era dozens of unidentified men thronged the Al Rasheed's lobby. All belonged to the country's feared Mukhabarat internal intelligence service.
The stories recounted by journalists are legendary. One told how, shortly after asking guests whether they needed ice for their drinks, a waiter bearing an ice bucket knocked at the door. Fast work considering he had not yet called room service.
