The Moevenpick Hotel and Resort Beirut offers its guests a splendid atmosphere of true luxury and beauty. Situated right by the Mediterranean Sea between Ramlet El Bayda Bay and Raouche rock, the Resort is only a short distance away from the bustling Beirut central district and elegant Verdun shopping area. It is the only hotel in Beirut with a private bay, a marina with 140 berths, 72 chalets, 1010 Cabanas, a shopping center replete with 35 boutiques and a state of the art spa and health club.

There is nothing to complain, they are one step infront of your needs. The view from the room was very nice. It was very clean the people were very helpful, the room had almost everything in it, enough space, bi bathroom, a newspaper daily, sweets and fruits daily, very good quality cosmetics in the bathroom. I recommend it 100 %.
I liked very much Sydney's. Its on the 12th top-floor were breakfast is served with a fantastic view of Beirut and mediterranean sea.
Notice that "Le vendome hotel" is a boutque hotel and there is no swimming pools and fitness center etc. if you are looking for things like these maybe you have to go to Phoenicia, but if you like small boutique hotels Theme: HotelPrice: US$120-180 » Currency ConverterAddress: P.O.

My hotel:
Regis
I stayed at Regis, where I got a huge post-bombing discount. The staff, two young guys, one of which owns the place asked me to share lunch with them, 'we are lıke family here' gave me free tea and more tissues, whenever I ran out. As it was not very hot during the day but the sun really fries your brain there, at least mine, and the computer there was very slow when it came to updating a travel website-- I got to hang out with them a bit in the lobby area. They helped me make otherwise confusing locals calls, and I wasn’t even charged for it. No pennypickers them Arabc speakers. It was very homely this way, I didn’t feel like some stranger but like family, though the place seemed very modern. Breakfast would have been included but I have some dietary restrictions. It was not good for me to have the TV because I spent at least 1 afternoon just catching up on movies, a documentary about Iran that made me forget that I was already abroad and pretending to myself that I understood the Arabic in the soap operas.
When I left to get a cab to the bus station, one of the guys working at the hotel volunteered to help me get my luggage out to the taxi spots, howled one for me and negotiated the price. Don’t expect this—but before I knew what was going on and sat in the cab, he had paid for me too!
During that time period when few people were visiting Lebanon I paid less than 15$ per day, also because I was staying longer, but I think the normal price is a bıt over 20$, for a single. I think they had AC, but I am not sure because I never use it. The air blowing in from the sea was quite nice.
It’s a block from the corniche, near the Palm beach hotel, and from my huge window I could see the Mediterranean sea, bathroom attached, hot water, electricity outlets, and with remote control and 60 or so stations. They had Zee TV!
Internet in the hotel, 3 minutes to the sea. They guys, both under 30, are very unpretentious and genuinely friendly.

Even though this old fashion hotel is basic, its rooms are decent-sized, CLEAN, and it's in a good central Hamra location; next to it are various cafés, restaurants, universities, banks, shopping areas, etc...
Rooms are fine for the price, with Tv , A/c and fridge.
Some rooms have a sun terrace which is a good deal.
There is a lovely ground floor garden terrace, and a pretty light-filled breakfast room, a quiet place to enjoy a copious traditional breakfast , and to sit with a book and some post-cards to write.

The Bayview hotel is a boutique hotel, located right in the heart of the seaside promenade -the Corniche (the North side) , and is in an excellent location to see all that Beirut has to offer. The mediterranean views from the rooms are amazing. I was pleasantly upgraded to a junior suite that included an in room bar, sitting area with couch and desk, as well as a walk in closet. The room and hotel is clean and well appointed. The service was impeccable and spoke english - from check-in, room service, valet, house keeping, breakfast staff, concierge - they were all phenomenal. All the rooms have safes, hairdryers, mini-bars, balconies, breakfast and the amazing view. As a woman traveling alone I felt very confortable and safe at this hotel. I highly recommend it!
roof top pool and double pain windows (so if you want, you can block out the early morning call to prayer) Leave a Comment
