I had a great stay at Colony Beirut Hostel. The atmosphere was welcoming and social, making it easy to meet other travelers. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to give tips about Beirut. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the location is excellent—close to everything you need. I would definitely stay here again

While the hostel itself is fantastic with a great outdoor area, very very comfortable beds, and ample amenities, the true essence of the hostel lies with its staff, namely Rami. The energetic and lively atmosphere is contagious, and you will have very interesting discussions about Lebanon and it's history, combined with hilarious frivolity. my friend and I were discussing how unique and fun this hostel was, and upon ruminating why, we came to the conclusion that Rami made it so thrilling.

The beat part about this hostel is this staff! Not only are you in a great location but they will help you with any recommendations as well as getting comfortable in Lebanon. The staff, especially Rami, create a great environment, would definitely recommend and will probably return!

The property is secure, in a central location within walking distance to whatever you need. The neighborhood is a little community; everyone knows everyone. We came to be a part of Lebanon and Rami, one of the staff, he especially created this experience. Every night he cooks a family dinner from his mother’s recipes, he is a natural teacher so you will learn anything you want to learn and if you need help with transportation or suggested places to visit, Rami will put in the effort for you.

It was really nice eating with everyone in the evening ! Rami is a really unique and funny guy. I'm sure He is a great guide for exploring the city. Unfortunately, the filth in the beds made me leave... A smell of gym and stale tobacco, a blanket that hadn't been washed in years, and traces of bedbugs in the pillow. I've stayed in dozens of hostels in my life but this one was really too dirty for me. I'd rather pay more and sleep in a reasonably clean bed.

I like the staff there who made very delicious meals for everyone. But the faculty is old and not that clean. No hot water sometimes. Worth this price.

Very nice hostel, located close to Armenian street were you can find a lot of bars, restaurants and clubs. However, the highlight was Rami, he is working at the hostel. He is such a cool and funny guy, we had endless conversations, very meaningful. And we could taste his selfmade and local food, this was delicious. Ramo - you madr my trip very special, thanks for your warm welcome!

Share knowledge, laughs and experiences over hot dinners each night. This place is wonderful especially thanks to the staff that work everyday to make this place better and more welcoming. Very busy area only like 15-20 mins away and a highway where you can catch a minibus or van only 5 mins away. Bring some humour and curiosity and you will love it. Perfect for solo travellers!

The Colony became a very grounding place to come back to each day after exploring Beirut and its surrounding cities. Very comfortable and private beds, wifi always works, beautiful terrace and you can catch a hot shower if you choose you days right. The staff are very caring and will answer any questions you have about the area and its works. They always help if you ask for it. Rami makes amazing hot dinners (Only for 5$!!!!) each night for people to come together and eat, talk, laugh(especially...

Stayed two weeks and had a blast! Lorde is kind and helpful, and Rami absolutely made my stay. Under a thick layer of humour is someone who really cares about the space and people around him, with great reflections to share about personal life and Lebanon. Do the dishes and get involved in the nightly $5 dinner that he hosts - delicious and a great way to make friends! Private + comfy beds, market and man’oushe around the corner, and easy minibus access. Sometimes hot water. Great terrace!
