베이트 투리프

Here’s an honest review: Location 5/5 — Perfectly located in the coolest neighborhood of Beirut Amenities 4/5 - It’s a cute, heritage building with an external staircase that’s a little tricky when it rains, but charming AF when it’s a beautiful day out. The “lobby” is charming but feels less of a lounging place, and more like a cafeteria. The shower situation is cute in the corner, but not very practical as water ends up pooling in the room after a reasonable shower. Not a huge deal, but not perfect. Bed 5/5 — Very comfortable king size. Perfect to sleep in after a long day (and my days have been LONG AF!). Noise 3/5 — Location being what it is, you will hear the neighbourhood (street cars, occasional construction bangs, loud church bells- not the charming kind of church bells). It did bother me a few morning not gonna lie. Staff 5/5 - Amazing hospitality. No negative comments. Super responsive. Kind. Smiling. All good! Room 3.5/5 - It’s a cute concept: A micro hotel in a heritage building… so it is what it is. I really like the high ceilings (Heritage building). I didn’t like that there wasn’t much room to unpack properly. A corner closet (or an “armoire” if you want to stay true to form) would’ve been great. Another thing I really didn’t like is the lack of ventilation in the room. How much hours raise the humidity and unless you’re open the windows, books and passports would end up wrinkled. Cost 5/5 — A lot of value for the money. Definitely a great find.

Beautiful new property right near some of the best bars and restaurants.

This is a small luxury hotel. We stayed at their newly added suite of 5 rooms at their second property 1 minute away (walking). The hotel is beautiful and comfortable, and the staff is very attentive. Breakfast is included in the room price, and it is very delicious. The food is all brought in directly from farms, and you can tell from the richer taste of the eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers, labne, etc. They use the tannour to make their bread and manakeesh, and the taste is top-notch. The owner approached us at breakfast to ensure that everything was done to our satisfaction and to describe his "project". I would say that he has succeeded admirably. We will definitely stay there on our next visit to Beirut. The street the hotel is on has many restaurants and pubs, and we tried a couple of them (both were very good). It is not far from ABC Achrafieh, a very classy mall within 15 minutes walking. Overall, a terrific experience.
