Karim's Training Facility Beirut

Boutique Sports Studio

Marie-Chantale from Beirut

"Karim's Training Facility is located underground and the hanging mirrors make the space look larger than it is. The premises are regularly sanitized, and this is essential for someone like me."

I have been training with Karim for several years now, with the hiatus of Covid and the lockdowns, I never miss my PT session! Karim is a doctor in physiotherapy, specializing in rehab training for sports injuries. But you can also have good cardio or HIIT training with him. It's always fun, sessions are private, and the music selection is simply awesome!

The studio is located underground and the hanging mirrors make the space look larger than it is. I love the designs and written sayings on the wall and how neat Karim is. The premises are regularly sanitized, and this is essential for someone like me. And this is one of the reasons I do not go to gyms: they are usually crowded, the music is too loud, and I'm not sure how clean they are.

Plus, if you are concerned about parking your car, the building has a small parking allotment where 15 cars can be stationed. When in the Ain Mreisseh area, and if you want a workout, give Karim a ring ahead of time. If you are lucky, he will have an empty slot in his busy agenda and will train you. You will feel pumped and it will only cost you $30 for a session!

My friend got the chicken sandwich which he said was delicious, while I enjoyed the Bruvs pasta, which was creamy, cheesy, and simply yummy!

Abou Jihad

Lebanese Cuisine

I am a vegetarian and going to a Lebanese diner is never an issue: half of the mezze does not contain meat or poultry, and several dishes are even vegan.

Sld Bar

Healthy Food Restaurant

The menu is diversified with not only hearty salads but also tartines, sandwiches, soups, desserts, and sweet bowls. One of my favorites is the Acai bowl.

Hanna Mitri

The best ice cream in Beirut

"Hanna Mitri" in Beirut is all about the ice cream. It's existed since 1949 and it's the only place in the city that has people queuing up outside it...

Barbeer

Beirut's gold and silver district

"Barbeer" in Beirut is the jewellery, silver and gold district---much more local than the city's modern souks. You definitely won't leave disappointed...

Al-Omari Mosque

Beautiful ancient mosque

The "Al-Omari Mosque" in Beirut is one of the city's oldest buildings. I think it perfectly showcases Lebanon's multi-religious culture...

Makan

Cosy dining spot with rotating chefs

"Makan" in Beirut has no set cuisine: Thai, Greek, Uzbek, Peruvian or Georgian... it all depends on the chef and the day! Very welcoming atmosphere.

Catrinas

Mexican restaurant

"Catrinas" is one of my favorite restaurants in Beirut. It makes extremely delicious Mexican food and has spot-on atmosphere. Just try not to go at night.

"Holiday Inn Beirut" was a victim of the war. It has remained abandoned since the '70s, continuing to remind the Lebanese about the horrors of conflict...
