EDITORS COMMENTS
Hotel St. Georges, located in the heart of Beirut, Lebanon, was once a symbol of elegance and hospitality in the Mediterranean. Built in the late 1920s, this grand establishment played host to an illustrious roster of guests, including politicians, artists, and celebrities. The image captured here, circa 1940, showcases the hotel's timeless beauty and sophistication. With its whitewashed façade, lush gardens, and inviting pool, it was a popular destination for travelers seeking relaxation and luxury. However, the tranquility of Hotel St. Georges was shattered during the Lebanese civil war, which lasted from 1975 to 1990. The once-thriving hotel was reduced to ruins, leaving a gaping hole in the heart of Beirut's once-vibrant hospitality industry. Despite efforts to reopen it, a long-standing dispute has kept the hotel vacant to this day. The empty halls and decaying rooms serve as a poignant reminder of the conflict's devastating impact on the city and its people. As you gaze upon this photograph, you can almost hear the laughter and clinking of glasses from the hotel's heyday. The Hotel St. Georges stands as a testament to Beirut's rich history and the resilience of its people, who continue to strive for peace and prosperity in the face of adversity.
