Worst hotel experience in my life. I didn’t even check in, I escaped from this dirty place. I don't recommend it to anyone.

Very nice and polite staff. The main gate opens to an alley. A truck was parked there and my Uber couldn’t come to the front door so I had to carry three suitcases to the car.
I have stayed at Caramel Boutique may times over the past 6 years. The rooms are comfortable and the locations is great. On weekends the surrounding bars can be loud until 3am, however, this time there was not much activity due to the current situation.
My favorite hotel in beirut. Perfect for solo travelers and couples

rooms should be better maintained. They should solve the issue of the humidity odour in the rooms.

The wifi was unusable. This made my stay very inconvenient. The curtains did not block out the sunlight. The bathroom flooded every time I took a shower. The rooms are somewhat clean, and look close to the pictures. The location is good. Not recommended at all for the price, considering the other options in Hamra.
I would highly recommend the Caramel Boutique Hotel as a great value option in Beirut. Staff were very accomodating allowing us to check in slightly earlier than the alloted time and generally very helpful during our stay. The photo shown was a great representation of the room and we found everything to be clean and of a good standard - the bed especially was very comfortable.
Location is great for exploring the restaurants and shops of Hamra but also as a base for exploring other areas of the city

Good location, so so hotel
Pros: Location right in the center of Hamra. Nice positive service by the staff, helpful. Design is ok.
Cons: front rooms are on the party alleyway, super noisy. Back rooms have windows to the wall, with no natural light. WiFi is very very poor, coming from Europe and needing it for several chores and trip planning this made my life much harder. No safe in room. No hot water for two days (they can fix this). TV has only 2 channels in english (hundreds of others though). All in all it was ok, but I won't stay there again.
Nice boutique hotel with excellent bar, in the heart of Hamra. My only complaint was the spotty WiFi. Good location to see all of Beirut and surrounding sites.
We only stayed one night.Beds were very comfortable, room was quiet and adequately clean except the floor was filthy. Good shower with hot water. A couple of complimentary water bottles were given. Location was fabulous, in the heart of Hamra where you can walk everywhere. Many shops and restaurants in the surrounding blocks. We would stay here again.
Clean hotel with very friendly staff. Wifi was adequate by Lebanese standards and the generator kicks in when the power goes out (this is a Beirut issue and not a fault of the hotel). Easy access to the Airport, Corniche and Downtown by uber, and you can get a datasim at many shops outside the hotel. Area felt very safe and had no issues during my stay.
Excellent location on Hamra Street, a pleasant 20 minute walk or a short uber ride from downtown. The hotel is modern and very convenient with Starbucks, restaurants and shops just outside. Be aware that the location on Google Maps is incorrect. If it's your first time, aim for the Starbucks on Hamra Street, and the hotel is on an alleyway about 20m down from the Starbucks
