Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were perfect, comfortable, clean, and well-organized, but they felt a bit small for the price. The service was outstanding, especially with the Lebanese sweets for our anniversary, though there were some issues with compensation. The location was great at the Mosaic with a close proximity to Zaitona Bay, but the situation with the collapse of the government next day was a downside. The dining experience was sumptuous but quite costly at $39 per person. Overall, the facilities were top-notch.
The hotel offers beautiful ocean/marina views from the rooms, which are absolutely gorgeous and well-equipped. While the rooms are nice, they are very dated and may not be worth the price. The service is exceptional with a helpful and friendly front desk staff and concierge. The location is great, close to Zaitona Bay and within walking distance of major city sights. The dining experience is special with a relaxing spa, massage, and swimming pool, although the variety may not match larger hotel chains. Overall, a pleasant stay with some areas for improvement.
The hotel is in a convenient location right across the street from Zaytunay bay, making it easy to explore the city center. The rooms were spacious and offered a nice ocean view, but the dining options were not as extensive as expected. The service was professional and engaging, enhancing the overall stay.
The hotel had all the amenities you'd expect to find in a 5-star hotel, and surprise surprise, you didn't need a PHD to figure out the lighting system. The room overlooked the marina, but it wasn't really as clean as I expected and not as big as I had hoped for.
I had an amazing stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, equipped with all amenities, and offered a wonderful view of the Mediterranean and the Corniche, which was just a short walk away. The service was super nice, helpful, and all staff members were very friendly and professional. The location was perfect, and the hotel's facilities were top-notch. However, the dining experience had a minor issue with some bacon being too fatty. Overall, a great value for money stay.
The hotel offers a wonderful view of the Mediterranean, with the Corniche just a short walk away. The room, although only accommodating one person, was spacious, well-equipped, and maintained in a nice, spacious, and clean condition.
I had a fantastic time at the hotel in Beirut with amazing room upgrades and excellent service. The pleasant location near Zaytunay Bay made for wonderful walks on the Beirut corniche. The dining experience was marvelous, and the fresh vegetables were a delight.
The hotel offers nice rooms that are a bit dated but clean, and the service is friendly and helpful especially from reception staff. The location is great close to Zaitona Bay, and the dining experience is special with beautiful spa amenities. However, the rooms could use renovation, and the breakfast options were not satisfying.
The hotel rooms were absolutely gorgeous and very well equipped, but the view of the damaged buildings from the back was not pleasant. The service was good overall; however, the constant requests for money from some staff can be off-putting. The location is incredible, close to everything you need, but be wary of the surroundings. The dining experience was very good with a mix of international and local specialties. The facilities were up to standard with modern design and a variety of services available.
The hotel offers a fantastic view of the Mediterranean with the Corniche just a short walk away, featuring an amazing room layout with a bedroom and a living room. However, some areas had too little light, creating dark spots. The service was super nice and helpful, provided by beautifully friendly and knowledgeable staff. The location is truly nice, boasting a pleasant and relaxing lounge. The dining experience was delicious with a wide selection available, although some aspects were average. The facilities were luxurious and overall well-maintained.
