Aparthotels & serviced apartments in Beirut

32 stays · 31 aparthotels and 1 serviced apartments · from €110/night

Beirut is a city of distinct neighbourhoods, each with its own pace, so aparthotels and serviced apartments make sense for anyone staying more than a few nights. Business travellers, academics visiting the universities and families returning to see relatives get a kitchen, a separate living space and the freedom to settle into one district, rather than living out of a hotel room.

Gemmayzeh and Mar Mikhaël

  • nightlife
  • dining
  • culture

East of Downtown, Gemmayzeh is a bohemian quarter of narrow streets and buildings from the French era, with bars, cafés and restaurants mostly along Rue Gouraud. Its natural extension, Mar Mikhaël, continues along Rue Arménie with cafés, galleries, bakeries and shops. Both are lively at night, so ask for a quieter street if you are a light sleeper.

Getting around Beirut

Beirut–Rafic Hariri International Airport, Lebanon's only commercial airport, lies south of the centre, roughly 7 to 9 km depending on the source and a 10 to 15 minute drive in normal traffic. The airport offers an airport taxi service and car rental, and its Tourist Information Center is on site. Driving in central Beirut is slow, with heavy traffic. Airline schedules to Beirut have changed during 2026: the UK government's travel advice (updated 10 August 2026) describes the airport as open and operational and tells travellers to check the local security situation. Check your airline and your own government's official travel advice before you book.

Most people get around by taxi or service, the shared taxis recognisable by their red number plates. Two public bus operators and privately run minibuses also serve the city. Coaches linking Beirut with neighbouring cities leave from Charles Helou station, about 1 km east of Nejmeh Square, facing the port. Within and between Hamra, the Corniche and Downtown, walking is often the most pleasant option.

Living in Beirut for longer

For a longer stay, pick one neighbourhood and live locally: Hamra Street has shops, restaurants and cafés, and Achrafieh's Sassine and Sodeco squares are afternoon shopping areas in the east of the city. Souk El Tayeb, Beirut's organic farmers' market, is held on Saturdays near the downtown waterfront. Arabic, French and English are all widely spoken, which makes everyday errands easier.

Beirut is a university city, home to the American University of Beirut and Université Saint-Joseph, so academic visitors often prefer Hamra or Achrafieh. If you are moving for work, read our guide to serviced apartments for relocation, or see what an aparthotel is.

When to visit Beirut

Beirut has a Mediterranean climate with hot summers. July and August temperatures rise to around 30°C, and most of the year's rain falls between October and April. April to June brings warm, dry days and long, cool evenings, and is a good time to visit.

Lebanon's calendar includes both Christian and Islamic public holidays; Islamic dates move about 11 days earlier each year, so check dates for your trip. Event dates in Beirut vary from year to year, so check organisers' listings.

Lebanon's capital sits on a promontory with the Mediterranean to the north and west and Mount Lebanon to the east. The site has been inhabited for more than 5,000 years. Most visitors stay in the western districts around Hamra and the Corniche, or in the eastern quarters of Achrafieh and Gemmayzeh. See all our stays in Lebanon.
