The Rotana Gefinor hotel is quiet, very comfortable, always beautifully decorated for all seasons, offering the exquisite Lebanese cuisine, in a walking distance from the seaside promenade. Beirut is one of the oldest cities in the world with a rich history over the past 5000 years. In the first half of the last century it used to be called the Paris of the Middle East, prosperous and rich. Having both the sea and high mountains, historical monuments and an advanced infrastructure, it was a popular touristic destination. Regrettably, the second half of the last century brought wars, damage and decline. Over the past years much efforts have been paid to restore and revive the city; in May 2015, Beirut was officially recognised as one of the New7Wonders Cities together with Vigan, Doha, Durban, Havana, Kuala Lumpur, and La Paz. I hope peace and prosperity may return.
I keep returning to this hotel I was happy to see the internet problems are fixed (December 2018).
Remember to go to the rooftop to enjoy the amazing view, I never get tired of it.
The lobby with its reflection features is another photographer's joy.
