“7 Day Holiday”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed yesterday NEW

All the staff in each dept provided exceptional friendly service, the actual hotel was very clean and food was excellent. We experienced all of the facilities available, including gym and jacoozi with outdoor drinks in the evening to the hotel shop, which again were all excellent. We had a three year old daughter with us and her stay was as... More

Good and great service .. old hotel but it's fine , I didn't like the sea view from the beach as loads of construction is going. The beach is not that much clean .. it's muddy .. the spa is evarage and the massage is good .. it is worth staying in the hotel if you are using promotion vouchers... More

“10 Days Holiday”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 days ago NEW

Service was excellent and everyone was friendly. Any help or requests were dealt professionally. Numerous bars to have a drink and few restaurants to choose from. Value for money especially if all inclusive. Recommend the Hotel very highly. Would I go there again? Yes without any hesitation.

“No complaints”

This was booked as a last minute holiday. We wanted to get away and relax for a week at an all inclusive hotel. It did not disappoint. There were 7 bars/restaurants we could eat at (not all covered lunchtime and not all covered evening). There was ample choice off food & drink on all inclusive menus for us. The Lebanese... More

Had a nice overnight stay at the Intercontinental... we were celebrating a friend's birthday and the staff was quite accommodating with our requests (extra bed and a cake at 12). We took a sea view room at an extra charge but weren't quite happy with it as the view is ruined by some construction work. Pool side facilities could be... More

“Don't let the look put you off!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 week ago

We had stayed here before for one night and remembered excellent service and facilities, so booked a short break. The look of the hotel building as you arrive may seem very old and dated, especially with the modern 5 star hotels around it, but don't let this put you off! The many restaurants around the hotel are modern and offer... More

“Fantastic 5 star hotel (although a long way from airport)”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 week ago

Although this Intercon was built in the 1970s you would't know it. The hotel feels modern and spacious. We arrived a day before our actual booking, however the staff went out of their way to accommodate us and honour our original booking (even providing complimentary breakfast....to make me feel better perhaps :) The hotel has it's own private beach. Unfortunately... More
