BEIRUT is once again establishing itself as one of the most vibrant cities in the Middle East after a war torn decade. As if to typify this new beginning the Four Seasons is set to re-open in December, a five-star 230-room property situated above Beirut's Corniche. Atop the 26th floor is a glass-enclosed pool and bar area open to all. Fully-appointed meeting and event spaces include a grand ballroom with pre-function space and outdoor terrace. A curving grand staircase from the main lobby to second floor ballroom will provide an appropriate entrance for social events and bookings are being taken for 2010. www.fourseasons.com/beirut
