What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
I love the Albergo Hotel for its authentic feel of a Lebanese mansion. There’s something poetic about it…
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set along tree-lined Rue Abdel Wahab El Inglizi, the quiet Achrafieh street is a short drive from vibrant Mar Mikhael.
The rooms
Pastel boudoir suites feature high ceilings, vintage textiles, and private balconies, leading into marble bathrooms stocked with local olive-oil soaps and deep tubs.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
A 16-meter open-air pool stretches across the rooftop deck, lined with cushioned sun loungers and potted greenery.
The spa
Tented ceilings and botanical wallpaper set the scene for massage treatments in the dedicated wellness suite.
The gym
Floor-to-ceiling windows line the 11th-floor fitness room, set with cardio machines and a strength station.
Restaurant
Albergo Rooftop
Glazed verandas and open terraces serve Italian-influenced Mediterranean dishes alongside panoramic views across Beirut to the mountains.
At the table
Downstairs, the ground-floor bar pours evening aperitifs beneath red lantern pendants and bookshelves of rare volumes.
How it began
Built in the 1930s as a family apartment building, the ochre mansion retains its traditional Lebanese three-arch facade and storied proportions.
