We have rarely seen such a cute and nice hostel. The staff is extremely helpful and courteous. If one turns with a request or question to the staff, they always try to make everything possible. We have witnessed something so rare in this form worldwide. The standard of the rooms is the price reasonable. The location between the port, the... More

This is a no-frills basic hostel. We were in a private double which had a little ensuite. The shower was good and the quality of the towels was excellent. The beds are extremely firm and our room was really noisy - but Beirut is noisy! However, if you are on a tight budget this would be perfect - the staff... More

I came to Beirut in August 2012 to study. My plan was to spend a few days at Talal and then rent a flat. But now it is March 2013 and since then I'm at Talal; live here. There's nothing more to say... Just 5 minutes to Gemmayzeh, 5 minutes to Downtown, 3 minutes to Charles Helou bus station (where... More

We are 3 friends just arrived after 4 nights in Talal Hotel in Beyrouth. The manager and the team are VERY nice, professional, and welcoming. The price is very good and the location too. THANKS to the manager and the people working there.

The place is pretty nice. The stuff are funny and with good sense of humor. Rooms are clean, not a lux. Good location. The kitchen is free to use like in a hostel. There is a free coffee and tea all the time.

Talal hostel is just what you would expect at a backpackers hostel- cheap rooms, friendly staff, and new people to meet. I stayed for almost 2 weeks, and didn't have any problems. Most of the staff was very helpful guiding me to the places I wanted to go, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom clean. It's in a great... More

I had to leave here after one night, so appalled was I at the conditions. When I got there, nobody spoke to me: all i could get out of the owner was a grunt. The lobby area was full of men smoking nargileh and being very loud. I wasn't shown any common areas or given any information about the hotel.... More
