Markazia Suites

The location of the hotel is great! Close to beirut city centre! Breakfast is not very rich, as of a five star hotel. Room very spacious and clean

Good location, good service, old-fashioned decoration but the hotel is good value for money

Excellent helpful staff, especially for solo female traveller.

A comfortable hotel in a great location. Walkable to many downtown sites and the beach. Interesting area.

vale muito a pena, os precos sao muito bons

Unfortunately my experience with Markazia was very unpleasant, therefore I find it very difficult to recommend this hotel to other travelers. 4 days before my arrival I contacted Markazia requesting a pick up service at the airport. Since it was my first time visiting Lebanon and with a flight scheduled to arrive at 3AM, I thought it would be safer and less troublesome to have a driver waiting for me. Markazia staff confirmed the pick up service but to my surprise, they didn’t send the driver. I spent almost 1 hour waiting and despite several attempts to call the hotel, nobody answered. I had to find a taxi by myself and if you have been to Lebanon you probably know how unsafe it feels having to deal with taxi agents trying to scam you and take advantage of you, specially at 4Am when there is almost nobody around. Once I reached the hotel, nobody seemed to know what happened. There was no apology from the person who agreed to provide the service as well. As for hotel itself, the location is good. Near the souk. The rooms are extremely dated and crying for a renovation. The bed and pillows were fine. The breakfast is absolutely awful!!! Stay away from the restaurant. Extremely overpriced and very poor quality. The reception staff is certainly what saves that place. They were friendly and willing to help. Overall I must admit my experience with Markazia was below acceptable and I will never go back.

Good value and in a good location. The staff was all very friendly and helpful. The room was a bit rundown but clean.

The location is excellent and the receptionist was extremely helpful. However, some staff were not, we had booked several triple rooms and when we arrived the 3rd bed in each room didn't have a duvet. When requested we were told there were none left by housekeeping. Only when reception got involved did some duvets appear (at 1am) and even then we were left to make it ourselves. Restaurant staff were quite unhappy and not interested in customers.

Great location, easy to get everywhere in Beirut. The hotel is all suites and having a kitchenette is handy. Rooms are decent, though not recently renovated. Breakfast has lots of options and check in was friendly.

The hotel is nicely located in the city center . The staff is excellent, many thanks to Rami at the Reception how is very helpful. Rooms are very spacious. The only thing is that room need to be refurbished.
