This is a small luxury hotel. We stayed at their newly added suite of 5 rooms at their second property 1 minute away (walking). The hotel is beautiful and comfortable, and the staff is very attentive. Breakfast is included in the room price, and it is very delicious. The food is all brought in directly from farms, and you can tell from the richer taste of the eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers, labne, etc. They use the tannour to make their bread and manakeesh, and the taste is top-notch. The owner approached us at breakfast to ensure that everything was done to our satisfaction and to describe his "project". I would say that he has succeeded admirably. We will definitely stay there on our next visit to Beirut. The street the hotel is on has many restaurants and pubs, and we tried a couple of them (both were very good). It is not far from ABC Achrafieh, a very classy mall within 15 minutes walking. Overall, a terrific experience.

The only place to stay in Beirut

Beit Toureef is an outstanding guesthouse right in the heart of cool and hip Gemmayze. It offers a perfect location from which to explore Beirut. The house has been immaculately restored and the rooms, bright, clean and thoughtfully laid out, are a delight to stay in. The staff are attentive, friendly and work hard to ensure a pleasant stay is had. Highly recommended.

Cannot say enough good things about Beit Toureef! What a beautiful experience. Sass and his staff are exceptionally kind, attentive, and so passionate about this guest house project that gives back to the community. We also loved the rooftop patio and the bartender, Shawki. Beautiful drinks, and food!! Will absolutely recommend to all my friends who visit Beirut, and will definitely be back.

Beit Toureef is more than just a guest house. This gem offers a charming and authentic experience that truly immerses you in Lebanese village traditions. During my stay, I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Sassine, the amazing founder whose visionary concept brings the essence of Lebanon to the heart of Beirut. The atmosphere at Beit Toureef is delightful, the staff is friendly and attentive, the rooms are cozy, and the location, nestled between Gemmayze and Mar Mikhael, is perfect. And let's not forget the well-stocked pantry filled with Lebanese traditional products, adding an extra layer of local charm to the experience. A truly unique and memorable stay!

Mon séjour à Beit Toureef a été absolument inoubliable ! Cet hôtel est un véritable bijou, plein de charme et de beauté. Son emplacement est idéal, à proximité de toutes les attractions locales, ce qui nous a permis de profiter pleinement de notre visite. Monsieur Sassine est d'une grande serviabilité et nous a généreusement assistés tout au long de notre séjour, nous fournissant des recommandations et des conseils pour notre programme. Rien à redire sur le service impeccable que nous avons reçu. De plus, l'histoire et la mission de cet hôtel ajoutent une dimension spéciale à l'expérience. Je recommande vivement Beit Toureef à tous ceux qui cherchent un séjour exceptionnel et mémorable. Merci pour cette expérience inoubliable ! 🏨✨👍 #BeitToureif#ExpérienceExceptionnelle #SéjourMémorable

Felt right at home from the very first moment I stepped into Beit Toureef. That feeling rung through till the end of my stay. I was bummed that I had only booked a one night stay. Beit Toureef is beyond just a lodging or hospitality venture, the business helps support local communities and villages throughout Lebanon. The room was sparkling clean, cozy and comfortable. The staff members were warm and courteous. Special mention to Doha & Kalsa. After checking out, I needed to store my belongings. They were happy to accommodate me, and even offered me freshly pressed juice as I waited. They take Lebanese hospitality to another level. Thank you Sassine for the great conversation. You are doing amazing work here, keep at it! I will definitely be back the next time I’m in Beirut; which is sooner than I had expected!😊

Cool Stay in Gemmayze

From the moment I started my journey, the staff were on point. Before even arriving, they checked in to make sure I was on track. Sassine greeted me warmly when I got there and showed me around. Youmna was a star, always ready to assist and making sure I had everything I needed. One thing that really stood out was how the staff were keen to help with my plans in Lebanon. They often asked if I needed suggestions or assistance with anything I wanted to do or see, making my trip even more memorable. The room? Super comfy. And the morning? It started perfectly with a delicious Lebanese breakfast on the rooftop. All in all, if you're thinking of a trip to Beirut, Beit Toureef is a top choice. Great people, a comfy stay, tasty food, and thoughtful assistance with your travel plans.

excellent hotel, one of the best experiences ever!

Best hotel in Beirut, and one of the best hotel experiences ever! :) pros: -very central location next to all the buzzing life with cafes restaurants and bars; -excellent quality of shampoo and conditioner and all products which are organic and made in lebanon, promoting villagers' products -delicious food and breakfast with events on the rooftop sometimes like singing traditional lebanese songs -owner and staff very welcoming and available for all requests and were always so kind and helpful. I will not forget their kindness: I was sick at the end of our trip and they wrote to me after we had checked out to make sure I was okay, shows how much they care about their clients and how human they are! -bed was very big and comfortable -running bath was amazing and so relaxing cons: room a bit small if you have more than 2 small suitcases since there is no wardrobe, but it was completely fine. thank you for this amazing stay, we will be back for sure!
