Stayed here as it was near a conference I was attending. They're obviously trying, there's a lot of earnest follow up but the hotel is quite loud with very thin walls. The staff were all friendly and courteous. Breakfast is not very good, and although the Lebanese food from the attached restaurant is very good, some guests may prefer some international choices on room service as well. The local area is great though, lots of bars and restaurants and shops. Apart from the noise, the room itself was comfortable if a little dated and faded. One thing to note though, hotel wifi is TERRIBLE. This is partly due to infrastructure issues in Beirut.
