Hostel Beirut is located in the safe and comfortable neighborhood Geitawi, close to the buzzing Armenia street in Mar Mikhael with all it’s cafes and bars.
We provide a relaxed work/study environment with a fast free Wifi connection.
The building is a duplex with spacious balconies in green surroundings. Breakfast and wifi is included in the price. You can sign up for arabic classes through our affiliate ALPS in Hamra. If more than 6 people sign up we can have ALPS send out a teacher to the hostel. There is a kitchen available for our guests but we also do different dinner events with Mexican, Iranian, Ethiopian and local food. We strive to have regular events where journalists can present their work to the public, either in a multimedia format or as a lecture. This gives young and aspiring freelancers the opportunity to publicize their projects and mingle with other likeminded journalists.
Once a month we're having a Cultural Potluck Dinner for Lebanese, Palestinians, expatriates, and Syrians. It's an opportunity for everyone to meet and share food and culture. People are bringing a dish of their own making (preferably from their own national cuisine).
