Radisson Hotel Group announces the signing of Radisson Mountain Resort Faqra, Lebanon. Set to welcome guests in 2027, this new resort marks the group’s first Radisson-branded property in Lebanon.
Radisson Hotel Group currently operates two hotels in Lebanon, both located in Beirut. Furthermore, the addition of this new resort underscores the Group’s commitment to expanding its presence in the region.
Located next to the Roman ruins of Faqra and near Mzaar/Faraya ski resort, Radisson Mountain Resort Faqra sits at 1,500m. Consequently, guests will enjoy breathtaking views of Mount Lebanon along with a variety of winter and summer activities. With over 60 rooms, serviced apartments, five junior suites and five suites, the resort caters to adventure-seeking and relaxing leisure travelers. Additionally, the resort will feature amenities like a gym, salon, jacuzzi, and an all-day dining restaurant with an outdoor terrace. These ensure guests have everything they need for a comfortable, enjoyable stay. Situated just an hour’s drive from Beirut, Faqra has become a high-end destination. Furthermore, the resort is only 3 kilometers from ski slopes with drag lifts, chairlifts, and ski tows at 1,500 to 2,000 meters. In addition to winter sports, the region offers summer activities, such as hiking, mountain biking and ATV/4×4 drives.
