- Mohamed Rami (8/5): Not Sofitel standards and definitely not 5 stars - The rooms were spacious, generally staff were pleasant when we approach them Property is old, facilities are limited, colors are very dark and somehow depressing, my kids junior suite was old and all facilities especially the bathroom were overused. When we asked the front desk manager to change it he said upon availability we don’t have any other twin bed junior suites. Usually in such cases we get either a letter of apology or a complimentary gift, but he was that’s all I can do. When I told him this is going to be in my review, he was like yeah go ahead. Also, staff generally were not attentive

- Reef (10/5): Exceptional -
- Basel (9/5): Superb -
- Faysal (7/5): Not bad, could be better - The restaurant prices are not acceptable, after the first two days I booked dinner for twelve persons and agreed with the management that the bill will be max 50 dollars/ person with a fixed menu but when we finished we received a bill for 75 dollars/ person, we objected but paid it. This was not nice from them .
- Paul (10/5): - Service at Sofitel exceeded my expectations
- Paul (10/5): - The service in this hotel exceeds by far my expectations!
- Marc (10/5): Beautiful boutique feel hotel, excellent service, very central -

- Nicolas (10/5): - Lovely staff
- Mohammad (8/5): Very good -
- Paola (10/5): Exceptional - Great location great staff
- Sasan (10/5): - I've had the pleasure of staying at this hotel five times over the past two years, and I wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else in Beirut. The hotel’s intimate size is undoubtedly one of its strengths, offering a cosy and familiar atmosphere that larger establishments lack. The rooms are clean, with a timeless and elegant design. The furnishings are solid, and the beds are generously sized and comfortable, perfectly suited to my taste. What truly sets this hotel apart is the staff. Without exception, they are warm, welcoming, and attentive. The receptionists, in particular, are discreet and go out of their way to accommodate my requests. Both check-in and check-out have always been quick and efficient. Housekeeping is thorough, and both the room service and laundry services are consistently prompt and reliable. The doormen deserve special mention for their attentiveness, always rushing forward, ensuring you are escorted to your taxi. One of the hotel’s most significant advantages is its location, situated in Achrafieh, arguably the safest area in Beirut. Additionally, the ABC Shopping Mall, which I frequent almost daily during my stays, is just a short walk away. It offers a wide range of shops and services that are particularly useful for travellers, as well as a variety of cafés. A taxi ride from the hotel to downtown Beirut typically takes 5 to 8 minutes, depending on traffic. I’m already looking forward to my next visit in the coming year!
- Jenny (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nicolas (10/5): - Very convenient location and very friendly staff

- Christiane (9/5): Superb - Professional and helpful staff
- Alina (9/5): Superb - Really great service and super friendly staff
- Emad (5/5): Passable - Nothing Old building, very poor breakfast, not fresh food quality
- Michel (8/5): Very good -
- Ilianna (8/5): Very good - The location is very safe and close to a nice mall. The staff is very polite and welcoming. The breakfast can be improved.
- Karen (8/5): Very good - Emplacement central. L’air conditionné central mis à 21 degree. Froid la nuit
- Hardik (3/5): Not Happy - Small rooms, small and slow elevators. Zero value for money. Staff is co-operative but rest everything was not up to the mark. At the same or lesser price, much better properties were available. Breakfast was also not upto the mark.
- François (5/5): Passable - The crew was wonderfull Indoor swimming pool not indicated on website I was expecting an outdoor swimming pool and the indoor was not mentioned at all on the website. Furthermore I have selected this hotel mainly to get because it was an ACCOR member. I was expecting to get benefits of my ACCOR membership. None of them were provided. Welcome Drink, upgrade, and bonus points. Again the crew of this hotel was amazing very lind and professional.
- Jan-mark (10/5): Exceeding expectations - Great service, very friendly people and very helpful towards us. Restaurant is good (great local wines). Staff was very fast in following up in questions for help in organizing tours, drivers and reserving restaurants NA

- Andrew (8/5): Highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay again. - The breakfast was reasonably priced and delicious! So much selection. The room was big, spotlessly clean and the bed was really comfortable. I had a great night sleep. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I stayed in other five star hotels in Beirut and this is the only one where I felt the service was 5 star. The hotel accepted credit cards which is great as many hotels in Lebanon do not because of the banking crisis. The gym is small and below ground level but it has free weights so you can do a good work out. The pool was a nice temperature and quite big. Both times I was in the fitness centre it was very quite which was lovely.
- Hadia (7/5): Fun stay in the heart of Beirut. - The location was very nice and convenient, very central. The hotel was clean and comfortable and the staff was friendly. It was a bit dark. Not much natural light in the lobby or the room which felt a bit weird for such a warm, sunny location like Beirut.
- Muath (9/5): Superb -
- Merna (8/5): Very good -
- Mihaelae. (9/5): Superb -
- Anonymous (6/5): Nice location, friendly staff, very old property - Staff is incredibly amazing Property is extremely old and outdated
- Homayra (10/5): A wonderful hotel. In a great location. - Breakfast was great. Location. Staff amazing . Rooms are spacious.
- Maxim (10/5): - A remarkably cosy and homey hotel to stay in Beirut. A great location where you can walk pretty much everywhere in Achrafieh and the staff are always there to assist. The only letdown is that rooms could have a have better noise insulation. And parking is out on the street. Apart from that, a superb hotel in the heart of the captivating Beirut.
- Stephen (3/5): Poor - Location of the property is good Bedrooms are very "tired" & the Breakfast is simply not good in enough both in terms of quality & selection
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Siobhan (10/5): Exceptional - The staff are amazing. the pool is ideal and the rooms are large and the pillow selection is the one! nothing
- Karma (9/5): Superb -
- Souzen (8/5): Very good -
