About The Smallville Hotel

The Smallville is found in Beirut's exquisite Badaro neighborhood, an area that uniquely blends the historic with the new. At Badaro's center stands the iconic National Museum, just a stone throw's away from The Smallville and home to Lebanon's most impressive archaeological treasures.

The district's emphasis on culture and education extends from the museum to local events and performances to university campuses. Like The Smallville itself, Badaro embodies a singular balance between privacy and neighboring activity.

Our residents enjoy an oasis of calm and comfort without being too far removed from the fun and action. At The Smallville you can relax in our soothing white orchid garden

Wow!!! I have to tell you I’ve been to 98 countries over 350 times. So I use hotels a lot. The staff at Smallville have become such a family away from home and the hotel itself is immaculate. Anytime I go to Beirut I usually stay here 1-2 nights of my trip.

Love this place!!!

payed twice online for expedia then at the reception (don’t know who’s responsible expedia or the employee at smallville).
you have to give your car for the valet by a sudden annoying decision from the administration so carrying the luggage and walking for a mile is a must cz no near parking place.

Nice, but not worth the price

Cute, quirky themed hotel. I give top marks to the room itself as it was comfortable and very well equipped. Location was not great, not much around. Front desk staff were efficient and friendly, however i went to the top floor restaurant and had terrible service on both occassions. For the price i think you can do much better in Beirut.

Property is unique. Modern and cozy at the same time. There is a superhero theme across the hotel, which is very cool. Rooms are comfortable and light. Cleanliness is spot-on. There is a small variety of restaurants and bars, but everything was very good. Good breakfast, nice snacks and drinks in the top floor, with nice views of the city. Staff exceeds any expectations. They are genuinely friendly and helpful. Extremely helpful I would say. I'm happy with our experience in this hotel and cannot recommend more. Really impressed with their level of service.

overall, the hotel has a quite an interesting. It is high tech relative to hotels in Lebanon, comfortable and spacious room, nice décor and amenities to fulfill your needs. The area that management should pay better attention to is the service. The team is young, eager, but lacks the skillset and customer engagement that would make this hotel a winner. Perhaps management should invest in improving training for customer facing staff to serve customer needs better. It happened that while we were there, they were hosting a wedding. Obviously, with all the commotion, the staff was overwhelmed, and some calls to the front desk were left unanswered and heard comments that I should come down to the lobby to be served. This I find unacceptable.

The hotel had made several changes since the last time we were there a few years ago and it made it even better. The rooms were clean, spacious and we had a great balcony. The bed was really comfortable. The Star Gaze deck on the roof was an awesome addition!

Interesting decor, basic hotel, good location

Nice hotel in Beirut. Check-in and check-out were disappointing experiences with grumpy staff who were curt and unwelcoming. Room was comfortable but the interesting decor couldn’t hide a more basic feel to it.

Incredible two bedroom suite, very clean, very quiet, big fridge and freezer and microwave could have been very helpful. But there were no utensils or plates, juste a few glasses and cups, so the kitchenette was not as useful as it could have been.
Only downside: very inefficient staff that did not seem like they knew what they were doing. For pretty much any request (except that of the safe which broke, but including late night checkout, needing change for a 100 000 LBP bill, calling a van to take us to the airport) they seemed clueless and running around not doing anything.

Only a few hours!

Plane delays (4) and lost luggage meant I only had four hours in the hotel, much to my sorrow, as the room, staff, etc. were just great! If I ever return to Beirut, I will say and get more time with them!

Very quirky hotel.

Lovely hotel but disappointed with the fact that we couldn't have access of the pool area due to private parties taking place on two days of the stay. Hotel staff should have informed us of this on arrival at check in.

Convenient funky hotel

Great convenient place with professional friendly staff and clean facilities. However, charging loyal customers for valet parking and 10 times the value of a regular orange juice from the mini-bar that you can buy from the grocery store right across the street isn't the best strategy to maintain loyalty! Not to mention the rooftop pool which is constantly rented for birthday parties. When renting a hotel room, you also rent the facilities the hotel offers!

Nice, but pricey

The Smallville hotel is comparable to the Citea, with a few bells and whistles that are unlikely to impact you if you're just staying for work.
And though when I booked it was the same price of other similar hotels, the add on prices were ridiculous. 20,000 LBP for parking for starters. No breakfast. The Citea has free parking and breakfast (with Bacon).
I realize this sounds like a commercial for The Citea. It isn't. But I hope that if you're struggling to choose between the two you'll read this and go to The Citea instead. You'll be glad you did.
Thank you.

Nice hotel, well located

Friendly staff. Everything great except for parking which isn’t free. You have to use their valet service with a daily rate which is quite expensive. Rooms are great, so is the service. Mini bar is overpriced but so are all minibars. The ambiance all over the hotel is pretty funky and yet you feel at home in their rooms. Will definitely come back but like I said, Parking should be free or at least with options to choose from like in most hotels.

2 Weeks in Lebanon

Hotel was fabulous. I spend much of my time traveling, and staying in hotels around the world. This rates with the best of them. It's definitely more geared towards the trendy/hip vs traditional. It's a scene, but in a good way. Perfect base for exploring all of Lebanon.

So happy I made the decision to stay here, which was done after extensive research and recommendations from locals!

Good Not Great

Cool chic hotel in the Badaro area. Very trendy spot at a decent price if not a little overpriced. The hotel itself I enjoyed however I've probably never met a more complacent staff for what should be considered a high-end hotel. Constant mistakes that lend me to believe it has to do with the training of the staff. It's not as if they didn't want to try to do a good job they simply didn't which means it stinks from the head. The most egregious had to be in the outdoor restaurant. Constantly late with food, forgetting about what I ordered, wrong food coming out. Just a complete failure on all aspects. The front desk didn't do much better. The lower staff seems completely clueless as to what their job description is. Also you will pay a different price for the same item in different parts of the hotel; one price for the diner outside and a different one inside. The traditional food in the back was pretty good but the diner out front was completely awful. Nevertheless it's a very interesting and cool place to stay they just need to get the kinks worked out and train their staff immensely better

Great location

Overall the hotel is really good for your money. The rooms are ample and mine had a balcony which was nice. My only complaint is that I ordered two margaritas at pool without checking the price and was shocked when I received my $60 dollar bill (not including tip)! And, the bartender served them in plastic glasses because of the pool! The Smallville Hotel isn't Raffles, the Penninsula, nor Harry's Bar where you know you're paying for the ambiance. Other then that the staff is super friendly and it's a three minute walk to the magnificent National Museum.

Looking forward to my next trip

As a frequent hotel visitor, I find Smallville creates a perfect balance between a Business & Pleasure hotel. It is young, fun and vibrant, while having strong wifi, a good gym and a tasty breakfast. Their young staff are are always happy to help, and will provide company if alone by the bar. Badaro is a hip area with some great restaurants and bars, and is a nice break from downtown and Mar Mikhael.

Unforgettable Fun!

The whole experience of the hotel really transforms you into a world of youth and diversity that is unforgettable! The staff is all full of youth and energy yet so pleasant, welcoming and professional! They all know you by name and the way they wear their superman outfits just makes you love their courteous behavior! The rooms are very modern and spacious but the bathroom is a little small. Everything in the hotel is carefully designed and even though the pool is small but it is cute with parties happening there everyday from locals and hotel patrons. You just want to call it \"mignon\"! Asking for small things might take time (like asking for remote control batteries) but you are in Beirut! So the charm of the city and hotel experience just makes you wait for these little things as the human experience is just much more richer! I booked all my day tours through the hotels before I even got to Lebanon and Yasmine was extremely responsive! The breakfast with Khalil is just an amazing experience with tenderness and diversity of food and a HUGE beautiful smile! The hotel is also very gay friendly and in a great location in the new section of Badaro!

This is my first time staying at a hotel in Lebanon and I was kind of dreading it . But smallville hotel ended up being a very nice clean and comfortable hotel with very helpful , friendly staff . rooms are of adequate size , noise proof which is essential for being located in the middle of the city . Would definitely go back . Has a big screen TV , kitchenette , big closet , safety box , and a large couch with lots of pillows. bed was very comfortable and sheets clean . Had also a cloth line in shower which was also convenient . Towels a bit old but clean . Also loved the garden restaurant. Has a little kind of cafe at the main entrance too . And taxi service always available although pricey .

Pleasant stay in safe neighbourhood

Overall just a little bit of a lack of knowledge from staff when it comes to service. When ordering room service to specifically have ginger tea delivered they instead offered a different flavour. There was a slight leak in the bathroom floor each time the toilet flushed. Service at the rooftop pool wasn't that great either, not for lack of trying but again lack of training/knowledge from staff. When asked for a glass of Prosecco, we were given San Pellegrino fizzy water.

High class hotel near popular Badaro street

The hotel is located next to the Levanese National Museum. This prime location means you ll be at walking distance from USJ, Hypodrome, French Embassy, Universite Saint Joseph, Grand Lycee Franco Libanais, Hotel Dieu de France, Les Creneaux sports club, Sodeco Square, and most importantly the very popular and vibrant Badaro street, which is full of restaurants and pubs that are sure to satisfy you.

The hotel itself is average in size as it is only 13 floors high. However, it is high enough in the region and you ll probably have a view in the higher floors. The construction and exterior design are quite modern and it seems that the management is taking good care in maintaining it.

The interior design on the other hand is very special. Personally I liked it a lot, even though I would understand that some people might not like it. It is called Smallville, as a reference to the superman series on TV, and therefore, superman is on of the hotel's main themes. Also the color red, also associated with this superhero, is omnipresent. The furnishing is modern and of good quality. Special mention for the elevator that has a TV screen on it s ceiling.

The design of the rooms are however much more classic while maintaining a touch of modern. The premium suite I took was very spacious and accomodates very easily two persons also there were two bathrooms that are medium to small in size, one bigger bathroom would have been more enjoyable, but some people might find two smaller ones more

Small on everything

Booked a premium room for two weeks at this hotel, because of its location and it having a swimming pool. The pool was used once, right before the whole floor was closed for construction work. Our room was 2 floors below the construction work that took place, between 9AM and 5PM, daily. The constant jack hammering was extremely unpleasant. Room condition left a lot to be desired. Out of 40 some TV stations, 4 were English speaking, two of which had a constant frozen picture. The bathroom condition was exceptionally bad. Toilet had a broken seat which made it a challenge to sit still. Balcony windows had not been cleaned in several months, years maybe. We had to plead incessantly with room service to get any type of help with concierge services. Most personnel were very rude, stared constantly and made us feel unwelcome. The hotel restaurant had trouble matching our preference in preparation of meat. Breakfast, although not included, was mediocre unless you ordered something specially made. Spoke with the manager at checkout regarding our sub par experience. No compensation whatsoever was offered. I will not recommend this hotel to anyone.
