Hotel Albergo’s location gives it a head start: this art deco hotel stands proudly in the heart of old Beirut within reach of the fashionable party streets of Mono and Gemmayzeh and the Sodecco shopping area. Despite its enviable address, leaving the salubrious surroundings of this city manison, with its charming ocre facade, isn’t easy.

Each of the 33 suites has a character of its own. Choose from opulent Orientalist, European, Colonial and Mediterranean themed rooms. All boast marble bathrooms featuring Jacuzzi baths, stained-glass windows and antique furniture.

Beyond the bedrooms, there’s the rooftop pool and bar where the city’s party people head to sit, sip and soak up the 360 views of the Lebanese capital. Enjoy gourmet cuisine at Al Dente restaurant or relax in the pool – a cooling retreat from bustling Beirut.

Outside the hotel the Grand Serail, Sursock Museum of Modern Art and National Museum are but minutes away. Further afield, take a tour of the Temples at Baalbek or Tripoli.
