The 30 best pet-friendly places and activities in Beirut

absolutely terrible hotel. the wifi doesn’t work, the rooms are all open on each other and you will not sleep from the noise of the other rooms, the staff are incredibly rude and mean. not only that but we had no access to the amenities, the pool was closed and the gym was too. there was nothing nice about this hotel

It's a good place to stay in but not more than 10 days the staff is good and always smiling and ready to help you but they have one problem it's about our breakfast I'm here from 15 day but untill now they didn't send me any breakfast knowing that my reservation includes breakfast

It's is, the most beautiful hotel I ever met 😍 super super luxury ✨️

The staff was friendly and helpful, the location is good and near to Spinneys and many bakeries, and the area is quite at night. You can reach the Rawsheh rock by a 15 minutes walk from it. But you have to know that the breakfast was in a nearby hotel ( a couple of minutes by foot) and it was not that big problem.

Don't let the bad reviews fool you. This hotel was top-notch. Electricity and warm water 24/7. Rooms get cleaned and aired daily. They also change towels and bring bottled water every day! My room was super comfy and had a nice balcony. The neighborhood was mostly quiet, but when you close the window you get completely isolated from the outside world. The only downside was the inconsistent internet connection.

Great service and classy style. Very comfortable.

Good hotel, the staff are professional and very kind, service 5/5. Location 5/5 Cleanness: 5/5 The bed mattress 1/5 old Room 2/5 because I had a connected room door, the next room guests were screaming until 4am. I had just a bad luck. Wifi 5/5 The shower hot water was red /orange for like 30 mins. The water tank I guess was rusty. Price 5/5 Overall very 👍

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an excellent dining experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and full of authentic flavor. What truly made the visit outstanding was the professionalism and warm hospitality of the team. A special thank you to Mr. Allam Sleim, the restaurant manager, for his personal attention and genuine care for every guest. His leadership clearly reflects in the way the entire team operates—with passion, precision, and a welcoming attitude. I also want to highlight Ms. Nour, who provided exceptional service throughout our visit. She was attentive, polite, and made sure every detail was perfect. Overall, this restaurant combines great food with an outstanding team that truly knows how to make guests feel valued. Highly recommended. Dr. Aly El Dakroury

I was planning to book a stay at the InterContinental Phoenicia Beirut for two guests, but I was surprised to see an additional *“extra person charge”* of 135 USD added to the total. When I contacted the hotel via live chat, I was informed that this is part of the hotel’s policy and cannot be adjusted. This is quite disappointing, as the booking was clearly for **two guests** in **one room**, and such an extra charge doesn’t make sense in this case. It gives the impression of an unfair pricing policy, especially for a hotel of this standard. I truly hope management reviews this policy to ensure a more transparent and reasonable booking experience for future guests.

We truly enjoyed our stay everyone was so welcoming and supportive. The location is amazing. We will definitely consider and recommend the hotel later on again. Everything is supper clean,organized and well managed. Thank you for making our Wedding day amazing and memorable

An absolutely wonderful stay! The hotel offers stunning views, spacious rooms with full amenities, and a truly welcoming atmosphere. Breakfast was a highlight, thanks to the excellent service by Mr. Allam Slim and his team—especially Nour. This was my second visit, and I’ll definitely be coming back again. Highly recommended!

Loved every moment of my stay! The views are amazing, rooms are big, well-equipped, and super comfortable. Huge thanks to Mr. Allam Slim and his team—Nour in particular—for the fantastic breakfast service. This was my second time staying at the hotel and I’ll happily return again. A truly exquisite experience!

Hotel is centrally located. Wonderful views. Rooms do leave a bit to be desired though. The are a bit dated and in need of renovation. The food and service is excellent. Allam the Mosaic restaurant manager is exceptionally welcoming, friendly and very efficient. He goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is satisfied. Bravo Allam.

ad a fantastic stay at the Phoenicia Hotel. The service was excellent from start to finish, with staff who were attentive, professional, and always welcoming. The rooms were comfortable and well maintained, and the facilities made the whole experience relaxing and enjoyable. It was a seamless stay that I would happily recommend to anyone visiting Beirut. Truly a hotel that reflects the high standards of InterContinental.

The greatest hotel in Beirut, no doubt. In terms of the spaces, from the patio area down to the swim club at the top, it is the pinnacle of service, great food, and amazing scenery. The rooftop terrace during sunset is a gem one must see in Beirut. Absolutely beautiful.

Tried the rooftop! Lovely view of Beirut city specially during sunset hours. The food and drinks are good but expensive. Service is great.

There are no words to describe this masterpiece of hospitality. Style, history, esthetics, amazing gastronomy, outstanding service, elegance... After visiting over 100 countries and stayed in best of hotels, Albergo ranks among the best if not the best. Discreet luxury with quality and class. I just love it. I love the professionalism and quality of staff... Rooftop terrace is just a mixture of beauty, coziness and urban nature. Beirut at its best. Food!!!! Outstanding from breakfast to dinner. Thank you for this amazing experience. I am going to be back again for sure.

Top notch service and property, with the warmest staff you can encounter. Well done to Albergo team and big shout out to the kind ladies at reception (Celine and Ruwa).

Came to the lobby for breakfast .. very nice and aesthetic the breakfast layout as well as the outdoor lobby. Food is overpriced but overall we enjoyed.. we ordered waffles, pancake , croissants , labne and toast with avocado with 3 coffees total was 150$ a bit overpriced for breakfast

We were really looking forward to dining here, but the experience was a major letdown. When we made the reservation, no one mentioned that there were separate indoor and outdoor dining areas. Had we known, we would have clearly chosen outdoor. Instead, we were seated indoors — and it was absolutely not what we expected. The indoor section felt more like a cheap café trottoir in Paris — and not in a charming way. The space was cramped, uninviting, and uncomfortably close to the kitchen, which completely ruined the ambiance. It felt more like an afterthought than a proper dining area. To make matters worse, the chairs were basic café-style seating, uncomfortable and flimsy. The table was so small we couldn’t even fit two dishes at once without juggling plates and glasses. For a restaurant that promotes itself on atmosphere and quality, this felt careless and disappointing

An authentic experience. Excellent in every way. Even if you don’t plan to spend the night don’t forget to try out their courtyard (for daytime lunch and coffee) and rooftop (for a bite and drink).

I stayed at Coral Beach Resort in Beirut, Lebanon, this past summer, and I must say, I’m puzzled as to how this place is considered a five-star resort. In my opinion, it’s more of a three-star experience. While the staff were generally friendly and welcoming, the overall quality of the resort left much to be desired. The rooms were extremely outdated, and the bathroom design was problematic. Every shower led to water flooding the floor. The swimming pool was decent, but I was deeply disturbed by the resort’s discriminatory policy against modest women. It’s appalling that head-covered women are not allowed to swim in the pools, regardless of whether they are paying guests. This discriminatory practice, under the guise of maintaining "prestige," was honestly disgusting and unacceptable. As for the breakfast, it was another disappointment. The selection and quality were poor, definitely not what you’d expect from a five-star establishment. While the staff’s friendliness was a highlight, it doesn’t compensate for the outdated facilities, poor food, and discriminatory policies. I certainly wouldn’t consider this a five-star resort.

The customer service is extremely great from Top to bottom, Even the service is awesome. The only thing the entire hotel need to be maintained well. The parking is not free 10 Dollars a day

Excellent service - Professional Staff - Attention to details - We had an amazing stay -

Isolated location with steep entrance Rooms with mosquito like in Africa Staff trying to sell water even in Ramadan Reception doesn’t know when twin rooms are required Ms. Lara is the only manager I saw as a hotelier who can do nothing for a guest except saying sorry.

It is very clean and quiet i liked the atmophere and service. But the cafe was so expensive.

Worst service ever. 8 days of complaining about cleaning . There was dirt in the room and they didn’t clean it at all , getting towels and shampoo is a hard challenge . And if you order a fork to the room . It might take at least 40 min You starve till your get your order to the . And after complaining many times. Still they did nothing. They just say sorry without doing any effort to fix their service . It was one of my worst stays ever . Never again . Very disappointing But to be fair the girls on the front desk are very nice and helpful especially Reva and sawsan .

The indoor views are just acceptable, and the view from inside leads to the old agriculture for downtown, I liked it but it depends on people’s taste. Great place though.

Possibly THE best hotel in Lebanon. Excellent staff, incredible service , spacious rooms. Don't believe it's expensive considering you're staying at a hotel that leagues above the others. Centrally located in downtown Beirut. Walking distance to many restaurants in downtown. Highly recommended

Wonderful hotel, close to the sites and attentive to family needs. My wife and I along with our 12/13 year old children travelled to Beirut earlier this month and stayed at Le Gray for two nights. For a family on holiday in Lebanon, the Le Gray helped make us not only comfortable, but allowed us the rest needed to properly explore the wonderful city from a great location. The staff was very accommodating and the breakfast buffet was very memorable. The rooms are extremely clean and the facilities lacking nothing. The view from the Corner Suite was simply amazing!

I stayed for 1 night at this place for a business trip but I would definitely come back again for a leisure trip. It is a new hotel so everything in it is in tact; rooms are spacious and equipped with all you need and the staff are professional and very helpful. I didn't get the chance to try the swimming pool on the rooftop which has an amazing view of the city. I enjoyed the coffee machine in the room with the fresh coffee grinder and the breakfast at the roof top

Stayed here for few days while I was in town for a wedding. The hotel breakfast was great, the roof top was nice but could be bigger. The hotel felt spacious, but that might be because all the rooms weren't taken. The only issue I had was the noise in the room. I could hear everything from the roof due to being on the 5th floor, and I did hear noise from the rooms around me as well.

Le Gray is in the heart of downtown with everything you’ll need within a 15-minute walk. If you’re an art lover, this place is a must visit. Felt like I was living in an Art Gallery, and they change the paintings frequently to give the space a new feel. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well-designed. The staff is friendly and the breakfast is delicious.

It was the first time for my husband and I at Le Grey Hotel and it will definitely not be our last!! We truly enjoyed our dinner at the Indigo. The food was spectacular and the view was breathtaking. Also, the front desk team was very nice to us, especially Hassan; he was wonderful and is a great asset for the hotel.. I would highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Beirut!!!

Nice hotel, the room are clean and confortable, the staff is kind and very helpful. The location is very nice, close to all the shop and restaurant. the breakfast are not super good but the food for lunch or diner is excellent!

Upon arrival, reception was empty. Waited for 20 minutes, a female employee came but stayed on her phone then left. We waited another 15 minutes for another employee to come. Were given a small room on 1st floor with old furniture and broken table and TV. Exactly near service section. Where door was always open bringing hot air and massive machinery noises. Workers going in and out constantly, talking, yelling. Was very noisy. Bathroom flush broke a couple of times. Floor was flooded overnight but female receptionist kept ignoring us, answered but didnt follow up the problem. We had to call a housekeeper to fix it. We called the tourism police department and informed them about all details, they said they made a note and will follow up complaints. Manager only sent reassuring msg on whatsapp but failed to follow with actual actions. At night reception was strangely abandoned completely while dangerously looking thugs with beer and alcohol standing outside and entering in. Which is very inconvenient for families staying in hotel.

The room was supposed to be non smoking… but it smelled very bad with lots of cigarettes and there was also a cigarette in the toilet… My clothes smelled like cigarettes for the remainder of the trip after only one night. Would never book again.

The Mayflower Hotel, an iconic establishment in the heart of Washington, D.C., is a perfect blend of historical elegance and modern luxury. From the moment you step into its grand lobby, you are transported to a bygone era of classic charm. The hotel, often referred to as "The Grande Dame of Washington," has hosted presidents, diplomats, and celebrities over the years, and it’s easy to see why. The rooms are spacious, well-appointed, and meticulously maintained. My stay was in a deluxe king room, which offered plush bedding, a comfortable sitting area, and modern amenities like a large flat-screen TV and high-speed Wi-Fi. The marble bathrooms were particularly impressive, stocked with high-end toiletries. The hotel pays attention to detail, ensuring that guests feel pampered during their stay. One of the highlights is the hotel’s dining options. Edgar Bar & Kitchen offers a delightful menu, blending American classics with contemporary flavors. The ambiance is perfect for a quiet dinner or a lively evening out with friends. Additionally, the hotel's afternoon tea service in the lobby is a must-try, offering an elegant and relaxing experience. The staff at The Mayflower Hotel are courteous and professional, always willing to go the extra mile to ensure a pleasant stay. Whether it’s arranging transportation, providing local recommendations, or addressing specific needs, they do so with warmth and efficiency. The hotel’s location is unbeatable. Situated near the White House, National Mall, and numerous museums, it’s an ideal base for exploring the city. In summary, The Mayflower Hotel offers a luxurious and memorable experience, combining historic grandeur with modern comfort. Whether visiting for business or pleasure, it’s a top choice for anyone looking to stay in D.C.

It's well priced, but the room was a bit gross, I paid a bit extra for the breakfast that was included, had the english breakfast the first day as it was recommended by the staff, but the breakfast was aweful to the point I didn't eat there again the following days, still not a bad experience considering the price, the best thing about the hotel is arguably the aesthetic and all the beautiful paintings hanging around

Nasty smelly Owner tried to take my number Chareef I think his name is Would not leave us alone we had to leave the hotel Gave me a free night if I was to go out with him Very horrible owner asked me if I can meet him after hours for a nice drink

Very good, friendly personal , clean

Excellent location and staff. Keep up the Great work.

Sky Suites boasts exceptional rooms that are not only comfortable and impeccably clean but also complemented by top-notch service. Its prime location, conveniently close to everything, adds to the overall appeal of this outstanding hotel.

Modern hotel tucked in the heart of Bliss Street. The rooms had a modern feel with plenty of amenities. I definitely enjoyed the cleanliness of the room. Small pool on top of the hotel provides an escape to enjoy the sun. There is also parking available underground.

One of the very few pet-friendly hotels in Beirut. The suites are large and comfortable, although they do not have non-smoking rooms so the rooms do smell slightly of cigarettes. The mattress was very hard and the mattress sheet was sitting directly on top of the waterproof sheet, so the mattress doesn't breathe at all and we both sweated a lot during the night.

I have booked a 2 bedroom master suite on top floor. Good things first; the view is very nice and apartment is suitable for small family. The location is quiet and a few minutes walk from university, food and shopping area. Coming to bad things; the breakfast is not at all good. Very few items on the table and on top of that the food isn't at all fresh. Despite of complain, I do not find fresh food. The towels are very old and torn at edges (needs to be replaced with new ones).

I stayed in Sky suites for 12 days in July in a Superior Suite. To be honest it was an extremely pleasant stay, with a very friendly staff. In a time of crises like this in leb, having 24/7 electricity and water is a bless that sky suites fulfill. I am not an artistic person, but the painting in the apartment were soothing and easy on the eyes. Available parking spots which a rare gem in Hamra area.

Booked a double bedroom suite on the 11th floor with nice views. Rooms are very spacious and clean with good facilities. Swimming pool on top floor and gym in the basement. Nice location close to all shops. Apart from this, their breakfast wasn't good at all and a very few items. Stayed there for a day.

Urbanista is a cozy spot that attracts a diverse crowd—business professionals, students, and remote workers alike. The ambiance is welcoming, making it an ideal place to work, study, or just relax. The staff are consistently friendly and make you feel right at home. My only concern is that not all the items listed on the menu are available, which can be a bit disappointing. Overall, it’s a great place, but it would be even better with a fully stocked menu.

We went there on a Sunday morning and it was not crowded. We were planning and working and we were able to focus. The seating was relaxing and i loved the interior. The food is good and the service was great the lady was very friendly. I also liked the outdoor space at the end of the store.

The ambiance is nice, jazz music was cool. The tea was good. Minted lemonade was great and tasty. They Russian cake is really good, a must try. Attentive yet not disturbing staff, they are nice and friendly. My previous experience with their coffee is satisfying

Super cosy and beautiful coffee spot, we enjoyed staying there to relax and have some stuff to eat. The food is good but not insane. However the French toast are VERY good and I loved it ! The service is super kind and gentle, the location is also nice in the heart of gemmayze with a lot of nice things around. I recommend this place 100%!

Nice coffee shop . Warm ambiance to spend sometime reading a book bought from adjacent Antoine book store. They even have a large table in the center, where students can plug in their computers and do their assignments. Intellectuals are easily visible. 😅

Great place to study. Spacious, good lighting and many options for food and drinks. Staff is friendly and speed of service is very good. I recommended trying the Sesame chicken salad.

A relaxing and comfortable place with a huge variety of mouth-watering sandwiches, burgers and desserts. As well as Alcoholic drinks, hot drinks and specialty drinks. You really feel like ordering the whole menu. Fair portions. Highly recommended!

By far, this is the best hotel resort in Lebanon! The service is impeccable, the ambiance is truly breathtaking, and the overall mood makes the entire experience unforgettable. From the warm welcome at the main gate security to the moment we checked out, everything was handled with professionalism and genuine care. The reception team was outstanding , their hospitality made us feel at home from the very first moment until our departure. We absolutely loved the room’s setup, cleanliness, and attention to detail. Room service was excellent as well. A special thanks to Sarah, Cyrine, Ahmad, and Farah for their exceptional service, they truly made our stay remarkable.

We booked the romance package for 1 night to celebrate my husband's birthday. Big thanks to Mr. Jean-Pierre for helping me customise it to our preferences. We loved every part of it!! The resort itself is beautiful, spotless clean and the design is very artistic (i particularly loved those little human figurines all over the place). The deluxe sea view room is beautiful, wide with well-designed partitions, digital lighting and curtain control. The bathroom is so luxrious though i would prefer more luxurious toiletries. The room has napkins and bins everywhere and i haven't seen this in any hotel so far - love it! The view from the balcony is serene though the sea view is very partial but well that's how the hotel is built. The spa is top-notch, so is the massage and staff there, already reviewed the spa on their account. We had 80 minutes heavenly massage. The in-room dinner experience was amazing, super delicious, generous and elegant. They also offered fruits and heart-shaped cake as a birthday gift. Hassan from room service is a true star with aimable attitude and sincerely cares about making the guests' experience positive - he rejected tips twice, but my husband insisted more lol. Breakfast was good as well, some items were better than others, but overall it was a nice experience with super helpful smiling staff. From the valet to management, the staff and service are flawless. True luxury and Lebanese hospitality 😍

During our stay at kempenski resort during the summer period for couple of months I recognized few employees like Hassan the room service guy which consistently provided outstanding room service. He was always on point anytime we ordered meals or drinks with extra care. The other guy hussein sherri from the house keeping is irreplacable amongst all hotels ive been in he is so neat, room was spotless and smelled fresh all the time , also Nagham is wonderful and her service was so neat , linens were crisp also adding extra towels. Jad on the reception is another asset for the site very welcoming with smile on his face all the time. We appreciate the the house keeping, room service and most services at the hotel. Would gladly return to Kempenski resort . Thank you Hassan haidar room service Hussein sherri and Nagham the house keeping Jad nd his colleagues are wonderful also on the reception.

Wonderful experience! the hotel service is incredible, housekeeping very professional special thanks to Mr Mohamad Ali and Mr Baraa! The rooms were very clean and the mini bars always full. Breakfast is always delicious and tasty! Loved every minute of the stay. Will definitely come again!

From the moment I arrived, the Kempinski redefined what true five-star hospitality feels like thanks to the beautiful Sarah at the reception. Every detail, from the warm welcome at the door to the seamless check-in, spoke of professionalism and genuine care. The room was immaculate — elegantly designed with luxurious touches, breathtaking views, and one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in. Housekeeping maintained everything to perfection, and the turn-down service was a thoughtful touch that made each evening feel special. Breakfast was a highlight of the day: an incredible spread with both local and international selections, fresh ingredients, and attentive staff who remembered my preferences after just one visit. Dining at the hotel’s restaurants was equally outstanding, with dishes that were as beautiful as they were delicious. What truly sets the Kempinski apart is its service. Every staff member I encountered went above and beyond — anticipating needs before I even voiced them, offering helpful local tips, and always greeting me with a smile. It’s clear that hospitality here isn’t just a job; it’s a passion. The facilities were world-class: a pristine pool, a serene spa, and common areas that felt both grand and inviting. Location-wise, it’s perfectly placed for both leisure and exploring the city, yet offers a quiet escape from the hustle and bustle. My stay was flawless from start to finish. If you’re looking for a hotel where luxury meets heart, the Kempinski is where you’ll find it. I can’t wait to return

The hotel is truly elegant, and the staff are exceptionally polite, professional, and helpful. Everything is spotless and peaceful. The bed is extremely comfortable, and the room is spacious with a lovely balcony. The view overlooking the large, beautiful swimming pool is simply breathtaking. Thank you to the hotel management for such a wonderful experience!

We went for a family staycation, and felt pampered in our duplex room. The kids enjoyed the direct access to the private pool with jets. Service on the pool was attentive. Rooms were impeccable and nicely decorated. Reception staff very welcoming and friendly. Room service timely and tasty food. Moving around the hotel was a bit confusing to reach reception or breakfast area because there was an elevator out of service

Best vegan place in Beirut (: Amazing menu all vegan Amazing drinks Amazing ambiance and amazing owners and waiters ⚡️✨⚡️✨ Would definitely come back

🌿 Oh, a VEGAN restaurant! A lovely, homey location with a welcoming staff and warm atmosphere. The food is delicious, with a wide variety of dishes served all day. You can truly enjoy the Lebanese flavors across the menu, from breakfast items, appetizers, sandwiches, and lahme b’ajine, to vegan pasta, Indian dishes, and burgers. Come to Orenda and you’ll definitely find something you love, any time of day. I’ve also tried their Saj Brunch, which was wonderful — great vibes, a cheerful crowd, and an abundant open buffet. They also host musical evenings, which I haven’t experienced yet but surely will soon! If you care about good food, animal welfare, and our planet, Orenda is a place worth supporting. Your small gesture (“grain de sable”) truly makes a difference.

Went with my family. It was WOW! Seriously, the chef is extremely talented. Never tasted so many flavours, working together. Nothing compares. Even non vegans would fall in love with Orenda. Mallow in London was my favourite restaurant anywhere, but now that's at No.2. The restaurant is quaint with beautiful decoration and the service was perfect. This restaurant is why I love vegan restaurants, theyre attentive to detail. Pros: The best food worldwide, The best deco worldwide, The best service worldwide Cons: That I don't live in Lebanon 😔

Such a cozy space and pet friendly where you can bring your dogs along. The entrance is from the main street so you dont get lost as shown in one of the photos. The ambience is nice though the outdoor space is limited with 3-4 tables as they have an indoor space too. Its a calm peaceful place for a chitchat with friends. Enjoy your beer and drinks along with some bites or even food. Also considered as light place for finishing your job on your laptop or whatever business.

One of the places that I'd call a hidden gem. The staff are absolutely wonderful, friendly, and very welcoming. The food is great, and the coffee is okay. Best part about this place: you can come in and spend the day with your laptop, grab your coffee, a great meal, and finish it with a drink! The music is really nice as well, perfect for work or chatting with friends. I definitely recommend this place!

Orenda has definitely earned its title of « Beirut’s hidden gem » . It has become the equivalent of home for me in lebanon. Everything about this place is beyond adorable. The owners are insanely welcoming , the staff is amazing , the food is excellent (for someone who is not even vegan) I haven’t missed a dish on the menu and I am always spoiled for choice, even their drinks are out of this world. But more importantly than all of this , it’s the feel of the place, the details that you see in every single corner, the beautifully designed garden, the energy you get the second you step in and the overall atmosphere. You can’t beat that even if you try and it doesn’t hurt that it’s dog friendly ans has the cutest items to buy form the concept store. Orenda definitely lives up to all its reviews, can’t recommend it enough. It has been my happy place back in lebanon since its opening.

Beautiful hidden spot in Mar Michael street, it's a place where you can have a nice cup of coffee and have delicious vegan food. They also have excellent cocktails, i recommend trying the sangria 👌. You'll definitely notice the cool design of this place as it shows great artistic work in it. Also check out the shop inside where you can find lots of cool vegan-type products. Highly recommended

They serve 100% vegan food, including vegan pizza. This vegan restaurant is open 24 hours a day, every day of the year, and has a funky pop interior. The price is relatively reasonable, unlike some vegan restaurants around the world that tend to be overpriced, even considering the high inflation in Lebanon. The taste of the food is quite plain, without a lot of seasoning and sugar. In other words, they can probably concentrate on how the natural flavours work. The atmosphere is relaxed, given that the place is open 24/7 and there are plenty of attractions and free Wi-Fi. The service is also courteous, with explanations when they ask me what I have ordered. # Beirut # Lebanon

The atmosphere: Incredible, there's Foosball, Billiards, places to play music, couches, a massive ans beautiful aquarium, and the place has a very comforting atmosphere. The food: I was absolutely bewildered. Compared to McDonald's it's not the best; however, considering the food is 100% vegan, I was very surprised at the quality of the food, and I could barely tell the difference between real meat and what I was served. I highly recommend the vegan cheese rolls, the vegan Philly cheesesteak, and the vegan sujk sandwich. The vey nice waitress I had recommended the vegan pesto pizza too. The service: Waiters and waitresses where always checking up and making sure you got what you want and what you need, so I really liked the service here. They were all also incredible nice and helpful. The negatives: -The couches, chairs, and tables aren't the cleanest, also most of the furniture while looking somewhat nice, is genuinely uncomfortable. -Some of the people that work there can be outright mean. -The wifi NEVER works. Not on my laptop, not on my phone. It's kind of absurd if I'm being honest. -They almost never have change for dollar. If you're going here, I recommend you bring with you a sh** ton of LBP. Note: the lazy cake is incredible

Eaten here twice. Once the hummus and once the barbecue pizza. Nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. Maybe a bit pricey to be Lebanon. The hummus was 3,5$ and the pizza 9$ (July 2023). The pizza was very good, but you can definitely find better hummus nearby.

The one and only Vegan restaurant in Hamra, and the most successful vegan restaurant in Lebanon. This is my happy place🌱❤️ I tried almost all the menu and everything has exceeded my expectations, here you can feel at home, very nice garden to chill with your friends plus they have gaming area🎲 Staff super friendly and hospitable. I highly recommend Luna’s Kitchen. Come to Luna’s and enjoy the vibes here 🌻🌱❤️

Beautiful Indoor and outdoor design too! Fast service, Kind employees! The food is 6/10. I liked the cheese rolls so much, i give them 10/10 ! The fahita was 5/10 and luna's pasta was good too 7/10! Worth the visit. And affordable! ❤️ Keep it up 🌱

Lovely stuff, cozy place and awesome food. I've been eating my way through the menu for some time now and so far everything is super delicious and recommendable. Definitely in love with their brownies and even my non-vegan friends leave this place saturated, satisfied and with a smile on their face. Thank you for running a vegan restaurant.

Vibes are nice in the morning they are calm and just right for studying and in the evening they are relaxing in a cool way, what makes lunas kitchen amazing is the people u meet honek, they just so friendly w up to a laugh even with a stranger . The garden is also really nice AND THE PUPPIES I SEE THERE GOD….. and the vegan menu is chef’s kiss. 10/10

⚠️ WARNING: DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL ⚠️ Avoid this hotel at all costs! We booked the Grand Habtoor Hotel Beirut trusting their claim of being a 5-star property, but what we experienced was nothing short of a nightmare. The moment we entered our “suite,” we were met with a strange, foul smell. We brushed it off at first, assuming that a supposedly luxury hotel would of course be clean. After a full week of sleeping in that bed, we discovered the horrifying truth: the mattress we had been sleeping on was soaked with urine and possibly menstrual blood stains. That was the source of the stench. We had grown suspicious that housekeeping wasn’t actually changing the sheets, so we stripped the bed ourselves, and what we uncovered was beyond vile and absolutely traumatizing. Not only was the mattress disgusting, but even the duvets and comforters had urine stains on them, hidden beneath the white sheets they use to cover everything up. When we confronted the staff and showed them the filthy bedding, they didn’t react with accountability or professionalism. Instead, they had the audacity to accuse us of being OCD. Imagine being told you’re overreacting while staring at a mattress and bedding drenched in bodily fluids. It was insulting, dismissive, and downright shocking. Although they made a half-hearted attempt to “fix” the situation, the damage was already done. The cleanliness of this hotel is a complete zero. They even admitted they didn’t have functioning vacuum cleaners, which explains the filthy and stained carpets throughout the property. As if that weren’t enough, the hallways reek of mold, the restaurants left us with food poisoning after their attempt to apologize with a dinner in their so-called Italian restaurant, and the night ended with us vomiting. Employees loiter in the halls and even eavesdrop outside doors, creating an atmosphere that feels more unsettling than hospitable. To top it all off, if you order delivery, the drivers aren’t allowed to bring food up, so the bellboy intercepts them and takes the tips for himself. The facilities are equally appalling, from broken irons to disgusting carpets, everything about this place screams neglect and greed. To be fair, Rashid and Manuela did apologize, but an apology does not erase the fact that we unknowingly slept on a urine-soaked mattress and bedding for days, got sick from their food, and were treated with arrogance when we tried to raise legitimate concerns. This is not a 5-star hotel. It is a disgrace. We have photos and videos to prove it. Avoid, avoid, avoid.

I booked a room and at the last minute was unable to stay. The policy of the hotel sensually they would take the full payment for a cancellation, but the staff was so understanding and did not charge me for the late cancellation, even though it was my fault. This really shows the exceptional service they provide, even for customers who have not yet even stayed with them! I will for sure keep them in mind for next time. Thank you all for this gesture as it means a lot.

I had a wonderful experience at this Italian restaurant Venezia! Everything was absolutely perfect from the delicious food to the warm and efficient service. The staff, including both the waiters and waitresses, were incredibly fast, friendly, and very helpful throughout our visit. The management clearly knows how to run a great place everything was well-organized and smooth. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be coming back!

We celebrated our anniversary at Venezia, and I’m so glad we did. The staff decorated our table beautifully, just as we requested, and were attentive to our every need. Service was smooth and thoughtful everyone made us feel truly special from start to finish. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was beautiful, and they even offered us a gondola ride. One kind waiter went out of his way to take photos and videos of us without us even asking. Everyone was polite, helpful, and genuinely warm. You can tell they care. Highly recommend!

It was our first time at Habtour grand hotel , we had a wonderful experience during our stay. A special thank you to Christian who helped us with everything. The staff are kind, professional and welcoming. Highly recommended.

I liked it very much😍. It’s delicious🤤, healthy and clean 👌🏻I feel that he deserve number 1 Italian Restaurant. I advise you to try it. You will not regret it and you will visit it again. You can also try the small boat through the water for a short and enjoyable trip around the restaurant. Special thanks for Mr. George.❤️

I had a wonderful experience during my stay! A special thank you to Rachid, who went above and beyond to make everything perfect. His warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail truly stood out and made me feel genuinely welcomed. Exceptional hospitality—I highly recommend this hotel and especially commend Rachid for his outstanding service!

I was surprised to have such a nice parc in Beirut, especially after all these bombs lately near it. I had a really nice walk. It is clean and wasn't crowded for a Sunday. Kids were playing with rollers. Nice place for a small walk.

The park is very poorly maintained — there’s trash scattered everywhere, and most of the grass is dry or dead. It was extremely crowded when I visited, and the loud music coming from different groups totally ruined the peaceful vibe I was hoping for. I really wanted to enjoy some green space in the city, but this just wasn’t it. Super disappointing experience. I did enjoy walking between the trees tho

Horsh Beirut is a great green oasis in the heart of the city. It’s a perfect spot to escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy some fresh air. The park is well maintained with clean paths, shaded areas, and playgrounds for kids. It’s a nice place for a walk, a picnic, or just to relax and enjoy nature. If you’re in Beirut and need a break from the city, Horsh Beirut is definitely worth a visit!

In a city that lacks green spaces, Horsh Beirut plays several important roles. Its trees produce oxygen to relieve air pollution. Its paths are used by joggers who want to escape Beirut's heavy traffic. But the park is in desperate need of maintenance funds. Many parts of it suffer neglect. It's still beautiful and worth a visit.

A little run down but they were busy cleaning up and doing landscaping. This oasis in the middle of Beirut is really green zone with paths around and many shaded places. It is a great place to take the kids with some playgrounds for the little ones.

Great public park, with a lot of trees and greenery. The only open gate is from Omar Beyhum street, the others are closed. Family friendly. Very clean. Could use some upgrades especially by making the bathrooms functional, and fixing the benches.

This is good to have such a green zone open to public for free. This area could have been a great recreational zone in the heart of Beirut. A lot of effort is necessary to upgrade it to the level and to improve the quality of services. Public awareness on cleaning is also needed, as well as enforcement.

It's a very butiful place you can go in vacation and have so much fun

Overall we enjoyed the stay at the hotel. Check-in staff is amazing! We arrived there and my kids were exhausted from the flight. After checking-in the receptionist was so sweet with my three year old daughter, entertaining her while showing us to the waiting area. The room is great, location wonderful, and food delicious. My two complaints: the waiting time for food and the concierge desk confused my airport transportation twice. That said, I don’t have the heart to mark them down because the receptionist was awesome!

the amount of huge high standards this hotel offer is outstanding. everything the tiniest details in all departments are made to perfection. staff, building, location, service , and never ending list goes on is on top of the sky. it feels inside like u r in another planet of excellence . we r thankful for having such hotel around .

Went there for Iftar, you are greated with a smile from the moment you walk through their doors till you sit down in your chair. The ambiance is warm and elegant. There was an abundance of food to cater to every taste. The service was excellent. I would recommend this place.

Excellent from check in to check out. Everyone was impressively professional and made me feel so welcomed! The staffs from, front office, concierge, housekeeping and restaurant were very courteous and impeccable. The room was very sizable and spacious, but it might need renovation. The whole stay was outstanding, gorgeous and comfortable. Thank you so much for everything and I would definitely be back in four seasons Beirut :)

Amazing experience, amazing view, amazing diner. the food is super the ambiance is great. a great escape inside the city.

Went there to pick up an item which happened to be in lost and found. The (maybe) efficient but not human procedure took 52 minutes. And I got a parking ticket. Flowers in the lobby are nice. Smart way to slash budgets :)

The pool area at this hotel is undeniably beautiful — the aesthetic is on point, with a relaxing atmosphere that's perfect for a day of lounging. Unfortunately, the experience was brought down by the service. The reception staff were surprisingly rude and unwelcoming, which set a negative tone from the start. Additionally, the staff at the pool bar seemed unfamiliar with the drinks they were serving and couldn't answer basic questions about the menu. It's a shame, because the ambiance really had potential. With better-trained and more professional staff, this could easily be a five-star spot.

This hotel has a fun, unique vibe with its superhero theme. Rooms are clean, and the staff especially Maya and Ala’ at the front desk were incredibly helpful, going above and beyond to assist us with bookings. The pool is also clean and has a nice atmosphere. The only downside: charging $10 a night for parking even for guests, which doesn’t really make sense.

Such an amazing hotel! Smallville is truly one of the best in town. The staff are super friendly and welcoming, and the rooms are cozy and comfortable. One highlight for me was the food — I tried their burger, and it’s honestly the best I’ve ever had in a hotel. Highly recommend staying here!

It’s o-k — but I found it very strange that you’re not allowed to bring any food from outside into the hotel to your room (thus forcing you to order room service, felt a bit like a cinema forcing you to buy from the lobby). They also charge for the nespresso capsules — I saw it said “$3” and assumed that meant for extra! Never in my life have I stayed in a supposedly 5* hotel where they charge for Nespresso in your room! Staff are friendly. These comments are for management who need to bring their policies in line with other 5* hotels if they want to keep charging at this level. Rooms are big (provided you get a deluxe)

Very cozy and stylish hotel, sure you will be happy about room services. Most important one very clean. Thank you

We had a great stay at The Smallville Hotel. The staff were very friendly, especially Karim. We’d definitely recommend it and come back again.

Had a great time at the hotel. Stay was comfortable, food was delicious, staff were friendly and helpful, and the decor and pool were amazing.

Clean, loads of seating and the wide pavement with great views out to sea make this a great place for a stroll in the sun. At the weekend there were hoards of people fishing in the water below which was great to watch and the whole length gave a nice sense of what a welcoming city it is. It’s such a shame that the water was so polluted with rubbish, especially when everywhere else is so well kept. It certainly doesn’t distract the locals though, who clearly love sunbathing on the rocks out in the water. During my visit to the city I walked it a few times, and although nothing special as such, it was one of my favourite areas.

The cleanest spot in Beirut, wish other places were too. A wide pavement to walk or jog on. Ample number of benches decorated with Palm trees. The view of the Mediterranean sea is not to be missed whilst the breeze from the sea is so refreshing especially in the summer heat. The crowd is friendly, however, there are spots like the New Lighthouse, which should be avoided. There are even local boat riders who display their skills at times by riding over the waves or a few locals show off their diving skills, which in all earnest, deserves recognition. The streetlights however are not lit, but given the 4hr electricity availability in Lebanon, it's understandable, nevertheless, the roads light up thanks to the well lit buildings opposite the road

The Corniche, Beirut's attractive seaside promenade, brings together people from all walks of life. Joggers and casual strollers, amateur fishermen and pro swimmers, divers and floaters, the rich and the poor congregate to gawk at the sea, the glitz and each other!

It’s fun to walk around. The beach is a mix of trash and rough seas and people hanging for ter dear loves on the rocks. It’s quite cool to see though - very “Beirut sur mer” outside of the expensive beach clubs.

My favourite place in Beirut. A buzzy atmosphere, especially on a weekend. Lovely views of the sea. A nice place to escape the city madness for a nice walk... And people watching!!

Probably my favorite thing I did in Beirut was strolling along this beautiful stretch along the coast. You have to see it to believe it. The sea, the traditional architecture, the modern skyline, East Beirut rising on the hills hidden in the clouds in the horizon...

Awesome place to be in, can do sports like jogging, cycling, walking, and even just glazing at the Mediterranean sea. The feeling of being at this place is undescribable..if you travel away from Lebanon, this would be the place to miss

I give the hotel 3 stars but before I write down the points I deducted, I want to give the hotel its due in some respects. The location of the hotel is quite central and many central points in Beirut can be reached with a short walk. The room I stayed in was clean. There was no bad smell in the room since it was a non-smoking room. On the other hand, as you can see in the photos, the furniture and furnishings are very old. But really old. The wooden coverings at the entrance of the room are out of place. Of course, it is not a super luxurious hotel, but in a hotel where you pay more than $100 per night, you expect at least more proper and functional things like a hair dryer and iron. The floors were carpeted but they were not clean enough. I think they should be cleaned more carefully. The oil of the French fries I ate in the hotel lobby probably had not been changed for a long time and many different things were cooked in this oil. The taste was quite bad and the smell was bad. I did not like the hamburger either.

I’ve stayed in this hotel more than once. The best part is undoubtedly the location - walkable to Zaytouna Bay for dinner. Otherwise it’s very tired around the edges: poor quality towels, air conditioner (either freezing or off), rooms smell damp/musty, poor quality breakfast buffet (stale croissants and if you stay several days you realise they are putting out same food daily if not eaten). On my last stay they didn’t service my room at all after the first night, either. And since I was out all day I only found this out coming back in the evening. Quite disappointed, but not saying I wouldn’t stay there again. Lebanon is having a huge financial crisis and frankly everywhere I’ve stayed there has been similar/the same.

So many good things to say where do I start?! Ali, Hussein, and Rabii and so many others are the most hospitable kind and welcoming team I have ever met. Truly and honestly they are a powerhouse. Their service is amazing their recommendations for food and entertainment are authentic. If you care for loyalty and magnificent service stay at the Radisson Blu Martinez. Thank you so very much for everything! Nesrin P.S taxi driver Haj Haidar is the gentleman you want to ask for he will take you anywhere with ease knows the ins and outs truly a humble being.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this stay was honestly frustrating. The pool had extremely high chlorine levels, within minutes of swimming, my eyes were burning, and my skin felt irritated. The smell of chlorine was overwhelming and stayed on me even after a rinse. It didn’t feel safe or properly monitored. Management really needs to step up their maintenance and hygiene protocols. Until that happens, I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

i had a beautiful stay at the Hotel. very clean and comfortable hotel. Very professional and hospitable staff. Ali and Mostafa from the reception were exceptionally helpful and pleasant to deal with. My favorite place to stay in beirut.

Loved the stay it was a short trip to beirut coming From Dubai , overall nice hotel perfect location , easy to access all premium areas in beirut , staff was friendly , Mohammad on reception was very professional, sure will come back again , highly recommended 👌

If you’re looking for a hotel with a perfect location, I highly recommend Radisson Blu Martinez. It’s within walking distance of both Zaitunay Bay and Downtown Beirut, which made it super convenient for us. Kassim and Hadi were incredibly kind and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. The entire staff was amazing and very welcoming. Thank you for the great experience — we’ll definitely be back!

One of the worst Hotels I have ever stayed in. My flight was cancelled so I booked a room in this hotel as it claimed to be 5 stars hotel. I wouldn't give it one star, the hotel is so dirty, there were some disgusting stains on the bed sheet and a blood stain on the mattress and some old tissue. Also, the bathroom is rusty and the curtains have many visible stains. I have to mention also the outdated equipment and the cracks on the ceiling. Location is good and the staff are friendly. However, the hotel is insanely dirty and I would not recommend it to anyone. It was shameful for a 5 stars hotel with 75$ per night.

Very nice hotel, room was big and have all the service iron shower bath, room service was good, well secured, reception staff was very helpful he took us to local cafe as we arrived very late. Outstanding services

The worst service I have ever had, the hotel doesn't deserve one star rate The breakfast service was not related to five star hotel. Bad house keeping service, we left our rooms from 11:00 am and went back at the evening and the room was not cleaned, several complains were reported to reception after 1 hour ( 9:30 pm) the house keeping came to clean the room. The pool is too small for 5 star hotel It was worst experience I ever had, I don't recommend this hotel at all

Excellent service and friendly staff.

Quality and price are not matching. The 4 stars are barely 3. The room are old, cold and we had problems with the windows than could not be closed and the wc! The staff is kind but cannot help the guests properly. The area is pretty odd: half destroyed and the rest so and so! Breakfast: pretty big buffet but the bakery part was cold. Again for a reasonable price I would recommend it but for the price we spent ... go for another hotel!

I waited 20 minutes with my bags just to check in. No one offered to take my bags, there were barely any staff present and the hotel wasn't in the least bit busy. The room was fairly nice but nothing lavish - clean sheets, large bed, desk, TV, bathtub, furniture in relatively poor condition but acceptable given the pricing. I had a big issue with the safe, it simply didn't work and would sound the alarm with the slightest touch. Room service is outrageously overpriced, but that's to be expected of a 4 star hotel. I can't reccomend this hotel but can't advise against it either. It's simply okay.

We stayed at the Commodore for 10 nights. Excellent location, service, rooms, and overall value. They were always seeking feedback and wanting to make sure we were comfortable. The rooms are spacious, clean and with fully functioning bathrooms. Location near Hamra was so convenient. Internet easy to connect to and the outdoor pool area was inviting and clean. Truly enjoyed our visit thanks to the excellent services and personalized atmosphere while away from home. It made all the difference for us. Would highly recommend!

I had such a great experience at this hotel! The staff were incredibly friendly and always willing to help with anything I needed. Everyone was welcoming and made me feel comfortable from the moment I arrived. The service was excellent, and you can really tell they care about their guests. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend this hotel! The staff was incredibly kind and helpful and the service was wonderful. So close to downtown Beirut and very easy to find. I will definitely stay here again!

while location is in the heart of downtown, the rooms are small. food is a bit limited no diversity. the guys at the bar/restaurant are amazing and super helpful but the communication between night shift and morning shift at the reception is non existent at all, wouldn't go back to be honest,

it is my first time in Beirut. a small central park :)) a well-developed, beautiful hotel with an incredibly good location. The reception staff are friendly and sincere thank them all ramada staff

Ramada is an impeccable hotel in the heart of downtown, great location, great rooms and most importantly great great customer service. I want to particularly thank Amira the reservation manager for her perfect hospitality. A true Lebanese hospitality, very kind, smart and respects the guests’ time. Definitely ask for her when checking in!

Big thanks to Amira, very welcoming, helpful with an amazing smile. Hotel is nice, cozy, clean with a proper location in down town Beirut with a great customer service.

it was one of my best short stay in beirut i had a very warm welcome by the professional team they are all friendly super team Thank you Ms Ameera Mr Paul Mr Tarek Mr Ahmed you made our stay wonderful

Nader @reception did a great great job. We had a food poisoning on the day we were checking out (As we ate falafel outside the hotel) and he did a great job by leaving the room to us till 4:00 PM where we were going to airport although we were supposed to checkout at 12:00 PM. He and the team at the restaurant and housekeeping crew are the reason we would like to come back again . Breakfast was absolutely delicious especially the Lebanese foul. Housekeeping were top-notch and always keep complimentary water on daily-basis. Thank you and that left a great experience

Very nice service and friendly team. Always responsive and kind. People in the restaurant are also super kind and friendly. There was a waiter with Down syndrome, I loved him so much. A great place for conferences and workshops. An overall great experience and a very good breakfast.

If you're planning to hold any future event, seminar, or conference, I recommend this hotel. Based on our previous experience, they provide the best services with the lowest rates when compared with other hotels. Mrs Rayne Ghalayini is there to offer you all facilities required for a successful event.

The best part of this hotel was the breakfast. It was delicious. The beautiful lady at the omelette station made me feel like I was home. It was my first impression of Lebanon. Mohammed and all the other staff members were very welcoming! I will always choose this hotel. It’s sooooo much better than Martinez.

One of the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The management team and staff were amazing. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Thank you Radisson Blue.

The service was amazing and a prime location in the heart of verdun. Everything was fine and on point. The hotel staff was really helpful and assisted our needs. We booked two rooms on the 4th floor and we stayed for 10 days. I would like to thank Faod, Yousif, Nader, and Lia for unforgettable experience. Regards Mussed alshammari

The hotel is clean and in located in safe place Just 50 Meter to cities best Shopping Mall (ABC) The staff are supportive and smily . Highly recommend .

We came here for a 17 days stay. Up to now already 12 days have passed, and we had a wonderful stay at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. Check-in was smooth and fast. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Overall, it was a great experience. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable stay with exceptional service. I’ll gladly return on my next visit!

Extraordinary for the price, super clean rooms, very friendly staff, very juvenile rooms, amazing service, awesome front desk. Honestly I was doubting the place but it will be my go to hotel from now on!

Some disadvantages: - The rooms are dirty from the first glance that the floor leaves black marks on your feet and the bathroom has an unpleasant smell ( molds) - You might find another person's hair, some crumbs or a bug on the bed (see the photo) , moreover I've marked the bed set and realized that they don't change it ... - The kitchen has no plates or eating set, only two bottles of water and two tea bags .. so grady - I got free maintenance for the door lock ( replacing batteries) Some advantages - Good reception staff -Calm and very polite restaurant workers - Good wifi - Good air conditioner - Changing bathroom towels, daily Suggestions - Uniform for staff especially the girls on reception - More care on indoor cleaning especially the bed set - Providing decent hospitality and providing complete bathroom amenities as per 4 star description I will give it a second try and feed back

My stay at Gems hotel was excellent. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the location made it easy to get around and enjoy the area. What really stood out was the staff — they were always friendly, professional, and ready to help with anything I needed. A special thanks to Eva, who was absolutely amazing and made my stay even more enjoyable with her kindness and professionalism. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.

It was very good experience, the staff were really friendly and helpful, morning and night shifts are amazing, definitely recommend

This hotel is really good, comparing it to other hotels with the same competition its way better, the internet is slow but everything else was great, we even used the hotels taxi and it turnes out its cheaper for long trips

Great Location in the middle of Beirut City , around 15 minutes walking distance to the Raouche area and close to restaurants and supermarkets . Staff is friendly and rooms are cllean

From the moment you walk-in the door until you leave, this place treats you like gold! The customer service is second to none; it was consistently outstanding. My husband and I were completely impressed with the professionalism of hotel staff and especially Mr. Riyad Briash. Mr. Braish went above and beyond in order to make us happy. The ambiance here is extremely inviting, familial, and comfortable. Lamia and Imad Nasrallah

I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful and the rooms were spfless and comfortable. I really loved this hotel

Very good hotel, professional staff, quiet room and very good AC, reasonable prise.

I had a fantastic experience at this hotel! The staff was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great stay!

Great price quality ratio. Excellent welcome and reception by tamer and bachar. Keep it up.

2-3 hours construction work in the floor beneath us without even a warning . And staff didnt even care to warn us about it or even move us to a further room .

Love this hotel. Meet the owner, very friendly and welcoming staff. Its location, location, location here! Easy to get around and so much is in walking distance! Room was very clean and easy to sleep in! I was visiting from the United States and felt very at home and at ease. I look forward to returning!

This is literally the best hotel in Lebanon and believe me I've searched a lot! The people are extremely helpful and welcoming, they literally helped us in everything, especially when our flight was cancelled and we had to recheck in they were so nice. Everything was clean. Their breakfast is decent. The free wifi is good. They also have an electricity generator so power cuts don't affect guests. The location is also great in Hamra which is like downtown in Beirut. Loved my experience their and if I come to Lebanon again I'll definitely stay in Napoleon.

From the moment you arrive at Hotel you're welcomed with warm smiles and exceptional service. The lobby exudes elegance, setting the tone for an unforgettable experience.

Highly recommended⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It was great but i have to say one thing only i didn’t like that they didn’t put water bottles in the rooms so u need to buy water or u stay thirsty all night 😅

I had a great time at this hotel. I recommend everyone to try it. The service is very nice.

Best service and best rooms i see ever and u can get safe cozzy night in clean blanket

While check-in was still fine I did not sleep well due to a lot of mosquitos. While that might not be fault of the hotel there was a electricity black out and they did not even put any generator on. While I had to leave at that time in the early morning I had to shower with phone light and could not use elevators with my luggage. Very bad organized for those cases.

Horrible. Stained floors and furniture, for hot water you need to wait around 10-15 min while keeping the faucet open. Mini fridge empty had to go to a store at 3am to get water (didn’t realize it was empty till then). Rude and angry staff. Pillows are hard as a rock. At night I couldn’t sleep because of all the shouting and loud music from the pub downstairs and in the early morning people on the road start shouting.Another thing that happened i was originally given a room which had stained everything and when I requested another room i was charged extra 20$ so that i can have a clean room and the new room also had problems like door not closing properly and clogged faucets. DOES NOT RECOMMEND EVER.

Very nice environment, very very nice! I like the sense of history, I like this French style. As for coffee, the only problem is that there are not many types of pour over coffee. But on the other hand, because I am a pure Japanese coffee lover, I can accept this kind of roasting depth. When the texture of the cream is reflected, I am very happy that I chose the right shop.

Kalei Café is truly a gem in Beirut! Housed in a beautiful old Lebanese house, it carries the charm of history while offering a modern touch in its food, drinks, and presentation. The balance is inspiring – you feel connected to the roots and heritage, yet at the same time, you experience creativity and progress. The food is excellent, carefully prepared, and full of flavor. The coffee and baked goods are served with such attention to detail that you immediately feel the passion behind them. Add to this the warm welcome, the friendly staff, the beautiful setting, and the vibrant atmosphere – and you get much more than a café; you get an experience that celebrates both tradition and innovation. It’s a place that tells you: yes, Beirut has a history, but it also has a future. Highly recommended!

Great place. Awesome nature and house/coffee house. Zaatar is a little too salty but everything else is great. We liked our waitress. She spoke fluent English. Definitely a positive experience.

The most lovely old home completely renovated to showcase its original beauty. The food was delicious and the coffee excellent. I wish I had discovered it earlier.

A cozy coffee spot tucked away at the far end of Beirut’s bustling Hamra. Perfect for unwinding or getting some focused laptop work done.

Their coffee and tea are so amazingly tasteful. Enjoyed having a cup of herbal tea in the afternoon while visiting Beirut.

Best specialty coffee in town for both of their branches in Beirut also that atmosphere and the interior design is amazing. Highly recommended.

The room view was quite nice, but unfortunately the furniture was not in the best condition. The cleanliness of the terrace was noticeably poor. Service throughout the stay was very slow. I had to request an iron and ironing board repeatedly over two days before receiving them. Reception staff varied greatly—some were friendly, while others were unprofessional and unhelpful. Most of the time, any request was met with the response “it’s hard to do.” I had also requested a shuttle to the airport and clearly provided the time in advance. When I called to reconfirm, I was told it would be difficult to arrange a shuttle at 9:00 PM. After a tense call, I was suddenly informed that the shuttle was in fact already waiting. However, I later found out that the same shuttle had been double-booked for another guest at the same time, which shows a lack of proper coordination. Conclusion: While the view was good, the service was average at best. At this price point, I would prefer to choose a better-managed hotel in the future.

A reservation made for one night honeymoon stay. Very bad experience; they told us that the total amount (that was paid in advance) includes room decoration, love cake and breakfast in the room. The love cake didn't exist and In the morning no breakfast to our room. Plus we have paid little things we had take it in the mini bar despite the technical problem we had faced in the morning (water falling in the morning and phone's room didn't work)

I want to warn everyone about lancaster eden bay due to the unfair treatment and inequality experienced by many guests. The hotel seems to prioritize certain guests while neglecting others, offering vastly different levels of service depending on who you are. This kind of discrimination is unacceptable, and no one should have to deal with such unfairness when choosing a place to stay. I strongly recommend avoiding this hotel until they address these serious issues.

The best hotel with exceptional service, delicious cuisine, and the most stunning sea view.

the hotel has a stunning view with a very friendly staff. the whole experience is 10/10 and would definitely repeat it my next holiday

Best location ever with a direct sea view. Clean hotel & friendly staff . Do not miss your vacation at Lancaster Eden Bay

Very bad services , unprofessional accommodation, for exemple hot water not always available for shower, i stayed one night in 5-6 april 2025

I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to the management and staff of The Hilton Beirut Downtown for their exceptional service during my recent stay. The team went above and beyond to accommodate my diplomatic needs, ensuring seamless coordination for both my schedule and that of my diplomatic security team. Their efforts in liaising with Lebanese Security Services were impeccable, providing a secure and comfortable environment throughout my visit. Each time I stay at this remarkable property, I am consistently impressed by the unwavering hospitality and warm welcome extended by every member of the staff. The Hilton Beirut Downtown continues to set a stellar standard for excellence, and I look forward to returning in the future. Thank you once again for making this stay truly memorable. Warm regards, Ambassador Patel

I highly recommend this hotel. We had a great experience. Excellent management and staff. Clean spacious rooms. Breakfast buffet by far one of the best I’ve seen with a large variety and very delicious!! Location is ideal. I will definitely return. Did I say they had excellent customer service 😉

Very clean hotel, excellent staff. We felt safe and we love that they had the executive lounge. We were able to have breakfast, snacks and dinner. The food was excellent. I would definitely return to this hotel. The hilton downtown is near everything, restaurants, shopping center, all with in walking distance.

The location was great for the purpose of the travels to Beirut... shopping !! It’s right next to all the most famous shops. However what truly stood out in this hotel was the service... from the check in to the breakfast to even the housekeepers... everything was top. Loved it and will definitely come back

Staff was extremely helpful and courteous. Hotel has great amenities and is the closest to the Souks so it's an easy walk. The staff helped me get a Sim card and watched my bags while I shopped and ran last minute errands even after I checked out. Will return to Beirut and will likely always book this hotel.

Clean hotel good location. House keeping follow up needs having a closer look. Food is good, nice staff but, absolutely poor WIFI. Annoying. May be different pillows for the ones having bones pain. Mattress little too stiff but still OK. Nice mezze

Probably one of the best showers I've experienced in a hotel, and I spent around 60 nights per year outside... Very well located, walking distance to a fantastic area for dining, shopping and walking. Kind staff, Thanks Carla at reception for your tips and recommendations ;-)

This is the worst hotel I’ve ever seen! Literally they enter my room while I’m outside and stole my money Also i call them to order from “barber shawarma” they add on the original price about 50$ That’s mad!

My overall experience was positive. I stayed for two months at an affordable price, and the staff were very friendly. The location is ideal, with easy access to Rawches, Hamra, Verdun, downtown and all the tourist attractions. It’s a very safe place to stay, and I would definitely recommend it.

lower than expected, water is salty, significant lack of hygiene, damaged doors and furniture and more.

Hotel Service bad, no towel, no hot water, water is salty, no heater or iron. Suitable only for sleeping.

🤮🤮

Rooms are very dirty. The staff and people awkward and dangerous.

good enough

My recent stay at Shade Suites and Studios was truly a highlight of my Beirut experience. Tucked away in vibrant Sodeco, this accommodation offers the perfect balance of privacy and accessibility. The thoughtfully designed living spaces feature high ceilings and abundant natural light, creating an atmosphere that feels like a home rather than a hotel. What impressed me most was how seamlessly everything worked - from the reliable WiFi to the well-equipped kitchenette. The neighborhood offers fantastic dining options within minutes, and the 24-hour security provided peace of mind. Whether you're a digital nomad needing a productive environment or a traveler seeking authentic Beirut charm, Shade delivers exceptional value that mainstream hotels simply can't match.

I have to tell the story. My wife and I are newly married, we reserved a suite at Shade Suites and Studios for 15 days. When we came back from the wedding, the place was all red rose petals - with a heart shape on the bed also, and a vase with beautiful flowers. The next morning one of the friendly staff knocked on the door, the owner brought us white chocolate strawberry cake! The whole team really made our days, giving us hospitality and a great fast service, they greet you on your way in and out! I definitely recommend to stay at Shade Suites and Studios.

Had a great stay. The location in Sodeco is perfect—close to everything. The rooms were spotless and very spacious. Staff and management were super helpful and welcoming. I recommend this for anyone staying long term for a few months, or even for a quick weekend!

Simply amazing experience. At the center of Beirut. Just what you need and more! Welcomed by an exceptional hospitality and care. Highly recommended!
