Be sure to stay in a sea view room, the sunset is breathtakingly beautiful! Reception staff were very kind and helpful - super easy check in! The room it’s self was spacious and had a heap of space to hand clothes and pack away luggage. We didn’t really explore the area on this stay, although this location is great for bars and dining (a short stroll from the hotel). You also have access to swim in the ocean just across the road - crystal clear water and just the perfect temperature! Highly recommended for a short or long term stay. Thank you

Excellent hotel in unbelievable location. Wonderful spacious room with balcony view over the sea. Outstanding breakfast. Fabulous service from reception, concierge, valet. Lovely swimming across the road. Two more critical footnotes. First, the hotel's restaurant across the road served a poor dinner - heavily salted food, no bottled water given. Second, the hotel's bar kept very loud music going into the night.

Beautiful view from the suite overlooking the sea. But you have a road accessing to the nearby parking under your window. And most disturbing is the permanent noise from the huge generator on the right corner ( you are in Lebanon...with no public power supply guaranteed ). Ask for a room away from that corner. You will also experience unbearable noise from parties held in the restaurant facing the hotel. The breakfast is fantastic, and make sure you never miss it, with on demand prepared omelet or fried eggs, mankouche b'zaatar- lebanese thyme and olive oil breakfas pizza, assortment of homemade jams, all sorts of brewed coffees, fruits, cheeses, cold cuts, healthy veggies proteins ( balila, foul ), croissants, lebanese sweets, etc.... The staff is friendly and always ready to help. Overall, you will definitely enjoy your stay here

Vi ble ikke informert om at vi ikke kunne putte toalettpapir i do. Det skapte selvsagt tett avløp. Det ble røyket inne i restauranten noe som var både uvant og ubehagelig. Personalet var vennlige og gjorde sitt beste, men var tydelig utrent.

Not a 5 star hotel anymore--they just don't care!

I returned to this hotel as I loved my first visit; however, I will not return again. Though I mentioned that we were celebrating a special event, registered for an "Executive Room," and staying a week, we were given a room next to the kitchen (room 105), which was noisy starting at 7am and until 11:30pm. I requested a move, but was told they were full; however, at breakfast I watched people come and go--we could have easily been moved because of the length of our stay. Throughout our visit, there was no consistent internet--it would work for 5 min and then not again until the next day or not at all. I had to go to the cafe up the street to connect. When we arrived there were no hangers in the closet--I asked for 3 days before they were delivered. The main shower head was broken, only the hand held one worked. They didn't bother to try to fix it, so we just made do. Service sometimes came, sometimes not. We would return at 3pm and have to request that the room be cleaned and then also request additional towels since they consistently only supplied for 1 person. The valet and breakfast people were consistently friendly and wonderful. The front desk people didn't care that we had issues and made no attempt to improve our stay. They just didn't care. When I checked out, I told the manager the continued issues. She made no apologies or any attempt to get me to return. She just didn't care. I told her I will not be returning. This is NOT a 5 star hotel--I was so disappointed

Great stay for 1 or 2 nights

The hotel is in a central location making it easy to walk from but also means the music is fairly loud in the evenings - Ask for a room furthest from the street & bar noise. This would be the highest floor rooms. The bathrooms (countertops & shower) could do with a deep clean between each stay and the room service food quality was not good. The breakfast selection is also not the standard you’d expect from a 5* hotel so perhaps explore the beautiful restaurants in the area for food. The staff were very accommodating though and the executive suites are large and very comfortable. The welcome snacks are also a very nice touch.
