The room’s cleanliness was okay, not the best.
The reception did not fulfill their full job, they did not guarantee my car’s security and safety when parking it, leaving the key inside the car and unlocked all night while I asked them the day prior to make sure it is locked.

We were 4 adults in a 2 bedroom suite. The suite was very large with a full living room, kitchen, dining and balcony. More like a 2 bedroom apartment. It was very clean and also recently updated. Very nice. The staff were also very nice. My only reason for 4 stars was that the AC system is quite noisy and the pillows very big and hard. Otherwise a very good value for money.

I also visited the larger Smallville hotel for a coffee and received excellent service
I would highly recommend the hotel to everyone.

Great location furnished apartment

We stayed in a studio- the room is ok, the staff is nice, the location is great. There’s a supermarket underneath in case something is missing in the apartment.
The only downside is that it can be a bit noisy sometimes

Well located self catering room.

This self catering room was well located being a short distance from both the National Museum of Beirut and Beit Beirut - Museum and Urban Cultural Center. We were able to park for no additional charge in the basement which was convenient. The only room available when we booked was a smoking room so there was a bit of a smell but we got used to it pretty quickly. The room was well appointed with a large bed, couch, balcony with seating for two and a small but useful kitchenette. There are some good restaurants nearby and it is is only about 15 minutes drive from the airport. All in all a good choice for a long weekend in Beirut.

Definitely recommended

Our stay in The Living by Beirut Homes last week was incredibly well.
Large supermarket in same building and close shops for late dinner.
Kind of central for transportation
Reception was very helpful and welcoming,
Assisting us with all requirements and accomodating parkings as required
The flat was spacious with a nice balcony and view.
Clean beds and toilet and late room cleaning since we needed the room most of time till afternoon
Can’t recommend enough

Thank you for hosting us, would definitely consider coming again and would highly recommend for friends.

Comfortable place to stay

The hotel is really comfortable with suitable price in the middle of city, close to night clubs and restaurants. Personal are good, room is clean and large with all you need even if you want to cook yourself. Higher levels have good view as well. Almost everything was good.

The only negative point was sometimes smell of cigarets. Hotel does not offer any breakfast but you can have good breakfast directly across the street.

Good home for family

Very freindly staff and clean spacious permises.
However we would have liked some essentials in the room like a tray of tea, coffee and sugar,,, also the towels were relatively old and need to be renewed,,, apart from this we got very good time and we recommend this hotel for family trip

Bien mais attention lors du check out.

Le séjour s'est bien déroulé excepté la veille du départ lorsque l'on m'a demandé de régler 500 dollars US en plus de ce que j'avais déjà prépayé à Hotels.com (annoncé comme taxes et frais compris).
Le réceptionniste prétextait une TVA (qui ne correspondait de toute façon pas à 500 dollars mais à 100 à tout casser).
Le service client d'Hotels.com a réglé l'affaire rapidement.
Mais cela n'a pas empêché l’hôtel de me demander à nouveau la même somme à 05h00 le jour du départ.

Merci à Hotels.com d'avoir réglé ce malentendu qui a quand même duré plusieurs heures compte tenu des difficultés à établir une communication téléphonique entre l'hôtel à Beyrouth et le SC d'Hotels.com.

Je précise que je suis une femme de 79 ans voyageant seule et que je parle arabe.
