Our experience at this hotel was exceptional! We hosted a successful corporate event, thanks to their top-notch facilities, the highly experienced staff and the outstanding service. The rooms were comfortable, tidy and clean. The food generous and delicious. The warm atmosphere makes you feel at home. Highly recommended for both leisure and/ or business experience.

This definitely is not a 5-star hotel, and well below the standards one would expect of a luxury hotel. The hotel is in need of refurbishment - the lifts are tiny (and shudder), and the rooms - whilst reasonably sized - are worn, with stains on the carpet and the upholstery. The bathrooms are small and poky, with dated fixtures. About the only thing that made it upscale were the Lanvin toiletries. There's not even a coffee machine in the room - only instant coffee is available. During the four nights I stayed, I was offered a turndown service only once (the other 3 nights I was out, so I don't know why they didn't just come in and do the turndown?). So the rooms are very much of a low grade. The pool and gym are in the basement. The gym is small, with very dated machines - neither the treadmill nor the elliptical machine worked at all. The cleaning staff were friendly. I never saw the front desk staff except upon arrival and departure, as they are hidden by a big pillar and work behind a plastic screen - it's not friendly or inviting. The security guard was mostly hunched over his mobile phone. So you feel quite ignored as you come and go. The location, however, is great - so close to lots of lovely bars and restaurants, and in a really lovely part of town. All in all, a disappointing Sofitel experience - far more in line with staying in a Ibis. Very expensive for what I got. I wouldn't stay again. And as for all of the other 5 star reviews...you will note that they're all by one- or two-time contributors, so I really question the authenticity. When you find a reviewer who has more than two reviews to their name, you'll see they also gave the Sofitel a low grade.

What a gem this beautiful boutique hotel . From the time you step in the lobby you feel at home, the reception staff are multi lingual, professional and knowledgeable . The room service is impeccable and the buffet breakfast is varied and delicious. We have stayed at Le Gabriel Sofitel many times over the years and always look forward to visiting again.

An incredible stay! The hotel's prime location was convenient (close to everything) What stood out most was the staff - genuinely friendly and helpful, from front office to bartender to housekeeping. Their warmth truly made our experience memorable ! We are already looking forward to coming back!

The nicest hotel in the world! The staff couldn't have been kinder or more generous. They always went above and beyond to find a more suitable room, to bring breakfast to different places or at different times or to accommodate special requests, to help me navigate the complexities of the city. Everything was clean and perfect. The gym was great. The AC and WiFi worked well around the clock, even though it didn't seem to work anywhere else in the city. Lovely rooms. Amazing breakfast. Great bar. And again, the greatest staff I've ever experience -- and i've traveled to 84 countries and spent way too much time in hotels:-)

This hotel was designed, built and is managed by a consummate hotelier whose motto must be, “Do it right from the start.” No effort has been spared in its design and finish, right down to the training of the cheerful staff who despite the difficult economic, health, and political difficulties in the country today, deliver polished professional services. The breakfasts and all food and beverage services are very good. It’s a perfect location for business meetings, relaxation, or the base for an extended stay. It has good amenities, including an exercise room and indoor pool. WiFi and computer/printer stations are also available in the main lobby area. Well located just steps away from restaurants and gourmet pastry shops and 4 short blocks away from a multi-storied, indoor/outdoor ABC shopping mall with a wide range of shops includng art, wine bars and eateries presenting an international selection of menus.

All in all the hotel is in a good condition, nice clean rooms. The rooms with balcony are the best. Breakfast was simple but good. Nice and friendly staff. The only thing that need to improve is the internet connection. It was too slow and sometimes it even didn't work. Still I think the price per night was a bit high for what you get but the area is just very good. You can walk anywhere and there is electricity everywhere not like on other parts of Beirut.
