The Grand Meshmosh Hotel

Nice and very posh area of Beirut. Nice breakfast assortment. Too bad that bunk beds don’t have curtains and the bed light is too bright. Toilet and showers are clean. Staff is friendly and professional. Indoor seating in the lobby is comfy and nice for meeting other tenants. Prices are average. Parking is very limited. WiFi is bad in the rooms.

After a long search, choosing Grand Meshmosh Hotel turned out to be a very wise decision, and for many reasons. First of all, the location is excellent and the price is very reasonable for the quality of accommodation. From the moment I arrived, I felt truly welcomed and at home. The staff are incredibly friendly, helpful, and always happy to recommend places and answer any questions. The accommodation itself is lovely, and the beds are super comfortable. I also highly recommend adding breakfast to your stay — it’s super rich, full of flavor, and beautifully local. What really makes this place special for me is the vibe — something you simply can’t buy with money. The atmosphere is amazing, and the people there are unique, kind, and full of positive energy. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Extremely lovely staff and great service with a very homy and cozy atmosphere in the lounge that felt like the nicest place in Beirut. Yet, the dorms are quite outdated and the showers are rather old and really lack hangers making it a very uncomfortable experience. We loved it though overall - deference a very adequate price! Nice place to meet fellow travelers.

I really loved the vibe of this hostel. The breakfast was delicious, with authentic Lebanese flavors, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Both the room and the bathroom were spotless. The room’s soundproofing could be improved, as I could hear the generator running during the night.

Arrived from Burkina Faso for a study visit on Lebanese agricultural cooperativism. We received a wonderful welcome from your hotel staff, and the rooms had everything we needed for a good rest. However, the best part was definitely the breakfast, rich and typical of Lebanese tradition. Thank you so much, we hope to visit you again in the future.

Amazing hotel, staff were really friendly and professional. Michel and the colleague who looks like a young Freddie Mercury were great. They arranged fairly priced taxi services (travelling solo I'm always ripped off)||Breakfast is lovely homemade Lebanese food and the bar area is chill. It's right next to St Nicholas stairs and artsy gourd area. Great stay ❤🇱🇧

My Son and I had a wonderful time. We were on the top floor and so enjoyed being in Gemmayze. We were visiting family, and the location was perfect for being able to explore all morning, enjoying The Grand Meshmosh for our siesta, and feel safe returning at night. My only regret is that we did not spend enough time at the restaurant downstairs which I'm sure had fabulous food judging from our breakfasts. The staff were lively and sweet, it felt like we were being cared for as family. I had help arranging drivers for when we went out of town, and for pickup from the airport. Truly our stay here is what made our time in Lebanon feel seamless and we can't wait to return.

Great hostel except no kitchen. Also found it strange that the female dorm was placed between where the male staff go to access the washing machine whereas the other dorm seemed more private. every 15 mins there would be a man knocking on the door to warn he was coming in, i thought that was quite odd seeing as i booked a female dorm. the staff would also randomly come into the dorm to just walk through and have a peek when no one was there but me and this happened a few times. The shower door was also see through which was concerning, especially because the blind covering the laundry area was also see through. Overall reception was nice and i did get a fattoush from the restaurant which was good. the area is an expensive area, with nice cafes and restaurants, but expensive.
