The InterContinental Phoenicia Beirut

Phoenicia Hotel

The InterContinental Phoenicia Beirut was a dream for Najib Salha, a prominent Lebanese man who envisioned building a hotel along the shores of the Mediterranean. Designed by the legendary architect Edward Durell, an early proponent of modern architecture in the United States, the hotel opened its doors in 1961 during Lebanon’s Golden Era and became the Mediterranean’s most fashionable address.

Celebrities, world leaders, and businessmen made the InterContinental Phoenicia Beirut their home away from home. The tragic Lebanese war forced the hotel to shut down. InterContinental Phoenicia Beirut was rebuilt and refurbished in 2000 and it continues to adapt to the modern day traveler with its state-of-the-art facilities. The lavish hotel houses 386 tastefully designed rooms and 60 distinctively designed suites, an exquisite spa, six restaurants, and a number of stores.

The landmark hotel is located in a trendy and extremely safe area alongside the fashionable Zaitunay Bay and is conveniently located at a close distance from Downtown and Beirut Souks.

The InterContinental Phoenicia Beirut, the region’s top-notch hotel, is BDL Accelerate’s official hotel sponsor hosting the majority of foreign speakers and experts attending BDL Accelerate 2015.
