A very large well situated, very clean and safe hotel. The hotel overlooks the bay and a small harbor with beautiful yachts. The conference facilities are excellent. The room service and restaurant food was pleasantly a good experience considering that this is my first trip to Lebanon. I was thrilled to see a few vegetarian options in the menu and... More

Stayed at Phoenicia in Feb, 2012. I've been to many hotels in my life so far and this has been one of the best. The way they pay attention to the tiny details that make a difference is breath-taking. For example, the choice of soap bars and shampoos in the toilet is luxury. How the room service checks if you... More

I attended the 4 days Forum of the Lions Clubs International in December 2011. Good location. The hotel is near sea and some rooms have excellent view of the same. The hotel has everything that a star hotel of this category offers. Excellent spacious rooms, swimming pools, restaurants, spa etc etc. The hotel catered well to delegates from 56 member... More

The Phoenicia Hotel has seen it all: glamorous events, scary times, first line in the civil war strife, windows shattered as a result of the bombing assassination of a prime minister, multinational meetings, and a continuous unremittingly first class management of hotel operations. Occupancy numbers have varied according to circumstances from zero when Beirut became a war zone, to over... More

The Phoenicia Hotel (aka Intercontinental) was a fantastic hotel. The staff were amazing, so helpful, efficient and happy, nothing was a problem to organize or assist with. The staff at the spa were also amazing, the treatments were excellent and the staff were well qualified and really knew what they were doing. The buffet breakfast was outstanding. The delux room...

Pros: Location, Spacious rooms, view ( on sea-view rooms). Lobby is very nice overlooking the swimming pool and the outside bar/restaurant. The swimming pool and area around it are also nice and perfectly located within the hotel. Cons: Some of the rooms, especially on the old tower ( hotel has two towers) has old or worn-out furniture; only when compared... More

I visited Phoenicia Hotel last October. I stayed there for 3 days for a conference. When in Beirut, I realised one thing that I havent noticed in any other destination up to that day: Dollars do REALLY count... The hotel service and everything was about money and paying, there was no hospitality mentality, just service and getting what you had... More
