Had a booking confirmed (through travel agency), Hotel Voucher, Credit Card already charged in advance, and came to Tripoli for an Exhibition. Once arrived, they said there is no reservation-goodbye-next in line please. Asked the general manager - wasn't there. Manager on Duty - neither. Somehow managed to find an emergency solution - not easy because hotels are not exactly... more

Okay, let's get the argument into perspective right away. If you're fussy, intollerant and not ready to adhere to Libyan standards -just stay away from this hotel. You can can simply fork out a tenfold of what you will pay here and book your stay at the superb Corinthia Bab Africa. I have stayed at the Grand on three or... more

Just returned form a week in Libya. Hotel in brilliant location near to the castle, souk and sea. Found rooms okay although they have seen better days. Safe in room but no instructions once a member of our party found the instructions it was a hit or miss if it worked. Had to ask for towels on a few ocassions,... more

I had heard some bad reports about this hotel so i arrived with low expectations. However, i was pleasantly suprised with the overall service and atmosphere of this hotel. Firstly the location is unbeatable. Just 5 mins walk to Green square and the Medina and very close to the harbour. From my room i had a great sea view from... more

The Kebir has location going for it as it's on the corniche overlooking the harbour and a short walk from the Green Square, castle, souk, and main shopping areas. The rooms are adequate but tired and need some upgrading and redecorating. Bathrooms are good with lots of hot water, nice deep baths etc. I was part of a tour and... more
