Beit Toureef - HOME

I stayed here for 10 days and had an amazing experience. The staff were incredibly hospitable, friendly, and always available whenever I needed help. The property felt like a home away from home. It was warm, cozy, and welcoming from the moment I arrived. I really appreciated the thoughtful decor and attention to detail. The building is older but very well maintained, always clean, and the staff did a great job keeping everything spotless. The air conditioning and the breakfast was also a huge plus. Overall, it was a unique and comfortable stay, and I would absolutely stay here again the next time I’m in the city. Highly recommended!

It’s a converted old house with a lot of charm. WiFi is good. Water never ran out. Electricity was always on. The towels were thick. The A/C cooled the room appropriately. The breakfast was great. There is water and tea available for free in the common area. Note that there is no elevator and the stairs are fairly steep. The only real complaint is that the shower head had accumulated a lot of calcium due to the hard water, and this affected the water pressure. Also, dirt or hair had accumulated in the shower drain, causing the water to drain slowly. Both are easy fixes that should have been caught by the household staff.

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

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.
