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!😊

Exceptional! You must stay here.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

I cannot say enough great things about this property! My whole stay was perfect. I even extended for a few nights. All of the staff was super friendly. They, along with the owner, were available 24/7 via Whatsapp for contact. The property was well-decorated down to every last detail. Sustainable products. Water and coffee station available on every floor. The location is also ideal in a hip neighborhood near many bars and restaurants! You do not want to miss out on this place!
