On first glance, the location of this boutique hotel doesn't look auspicious. But if you ignore the fact that a busy motorway is next door, the fact that Achrafiyeh, Gemmayzeh and Downtown are on the doorstep makes it extremely convenient. Rooms are very handsome, quiet and romantically lit; service is slick. The rooftop pool is a major draw.
Superior rooms have an enhanced bathroom with tub and a better outlook. Approach the hotel directly when reserving for decent pay-upfront discounts.
