Guesthouses have been booming in Lebanon in recent years. They are highly sought-after, and the quality of what is being offered is continually improving.
This Is Beirut invites you to discover four guesthouses located in various Lebanese regions, while interviewing experts to assess the season in light of the crises and repercussions of the ongoing conflict between Hezbollah and the Israeli army in South Lebanon.
Ramzi Salman, President of the Union of Guest House Owners and owner of Bkerzay, points out that “the city of Tyre has been severely affected by the conflict in the South, and many guesthouse owners have gone out of business.” Salman adds, however, “In other Lebanese regions renowned for the quality of their guesthouses, such as Beirut, Batroun, Douma, the Chouf, etc., the season has been acceptable, although not as good as last year’s.”
