	Friendly and comfortable Review of Le Meridien Commodore, Beirut by banginbird Advantages: Friendly staff and good amenities. Disadvantages: Local Press I visited Le Meridien Commodore in January 2007. Visiting Beirut was an amazing eye-opening experience, and my stay at this 5 star hotel helped to make me feel safe and comfortable. The staff are brilliant, friendly and always willing to help, the food wa ...

	Quick review of Temples of Baalbek, Beirut Review of Temples of Baalbek, Beirut by nadime Yes Baalbeck is very interesting, I have visited twice after a long car journey through the Beka Valley and on to Zahle then to Beirut. I found walking around this ancient site mesmerizing, over a large area you can walk round freely and touch the stone and sit and take in the size of the coloumns made of rose granite and wonder about how they were built. It is breathtaking believe me. Hard to visit at the current time, but a treasure all the same.

	Beautiful Baalbek Review of Temples of Baalbek, Beirut by clarenceh Advantages: Fantastic Roman Ruins Disadvantages: Very hot in summer months I visited this wonderful roman ruin a few years ago and it is far more impressive and spectacular than the Acroplis in athens (i have been there too!). The magnificent Temple of Bacchus is virtually intact and the surrounding columns and fantastic carved ...

	Room with a view Review of Quality Inn, Tripoli by Aloush Advantages: Clean, friendly staff, relatively cheap. Disadvantages: No frills in rooms The Quality Inn I don't want to repeat what Vodkaboy wrote in his thorough review of the hotel in 2005, so I will just add my own particular observations from my recent stay at this hotel in October 2006. Tripoli is geographically in the North of ...

Read review Ciao members have rated this review on average somewhat helpful Ciao members have made 2 comments about this review View comments Hi. I'd love to go to Lebanon, like weetoon, I love Lebanese food too. I'd like to know a bit more about the place though. I think many people have rated it only somewhat helpful because your review is quite difficult to read - there's no punctuation and it reads as just one long sentence. Let me know in my guestbook if you alter it and I will happily come by and re-rate it. cheers, jayne by jayne30165 I have always heard it said that Lebanese people were very urbane. I also love Lebanese food. Your review is not really telling me enough though. It just gives a glimpse of that country and I , for one, would love to hear more from someone who has been there. by weetoon read all comments There are 5 other reviews on this product: View other reviews currency by jackyf The Best Country in the Arab World by Inferno A little known gem by magnoona read all reviews		somewhat helpful 02.02.06 16:25
	A site not to be missed Review of Faraya by Mrs.Nadine Advantages: mountain and countryside atmosphere and yet, not too far from the sea shore Disadvantages: A bit expensive Faraya is the name of a small mountain village in Lebanon. It is one of Lebanon's tourist citations for many reasons. The first reason that makes it an attraction is the weather. If you are visiting Lebanon in the summer, than spending few days in faraya ...

	Paradise missed! (Or so it would seem) Review of General: Lebanon by Librelola Advantages: Rich historical and archaeological as well as cultural country Disadvantages: Not many for tourists, but slightly expensive The Lebanon may not seem an ideal holiday destination to many, but to some, the idea is rather tempting. Most people are in a sense still frightened, because of the war that tore the country for over 15 years, from 1975 (although some say earlier) until ...

	Size does matter, specially in the bedroom! Review of Quality Inn, Tripoli by Vodkaboy Advantages: Large, spacious rooms, clean, only decent hotel around Disadvantages: basic, poor breakfast I've visited Lebanon a few times during 2003 and 2004. On the last trip I was lucky to be able to get up to northern Lebanon, where the scenery is beautiful, especially in and around the mountains. I stayed in a city called Tripoli - yes, it's confusing h ...

	The other side of Beirut Review of Beirut (Lebanon) by sean0107 Advantages: The virgin diving to Westerners Disadvantages: The way South! ********INTRODUCTION****** Whenever anyone mentions Beirut visions of war, unrest, kidnapping and death are conjured. I had heard on the grapevine that Beirut was the place to go for diving that was “a bit different”. I was not too su ... Read review Ciao members have rated this review on average very helpful** Ciao members have made 35 comments about this review View comments Do you also write here http://www.bsactravelclub.co.uk/reports/beirut.htm by COOOEEE Diving is not my cup of tea. especially when there are so much exciting things are happening on the surface. Anyway, it's good that you rectify the faulty western image of Libanon - even though noone will believe you. War and destruction are still in peoples minds when they hear "Libanon" or "Beirut". I'm happy that I overcame my preoccupations and discovered one of the hippest places in the world to be nowadays. by SaschaT read all comments There are 2 other reviews on this product: View other reviews The city that never Sleeps by Inferno Beautiful place,I wouldn't want to live there by Nume read all reviews		very helpful 18.11.04 10:36 (18.11.04 10:59)
	An amazing country!!! Review of General: Lebanon by dankassdann Advantages: Great food, great nature, great culture! Disadvantages: A civic war ruined much. I just want to say that you should ignore "Length of visit, Daily budget and size of group". Lebanon is called the pearl of the middle-east and is one of the most beautiful countries in the middle-east. In the year 1985 a civic war accrued in Leban ...

	A little known gem Review of General: Lebanon by magnoona Advantages: The Switzerland of the Middle East, beautiful scenery, wonderful cuisine Disadvantages: Still a little unstable, driving is a little scary, still battle-scarred I spent a month all over Lebanon; off the beaten track and all the major tourist sights. It's had a lot of bad publicity and very little good but is an incredible place to visit. It has a unique character as well as offering all the usual Middle Eastern ...
