Best Hotels in Faraya-Mzaar-Kfardebian

For winter sports enthusiasts, the ski slopes of Mzaar are the undeniable heart of Faraya-Mzaar-Kfardebian. This mountain resort area transforms into Lebanon's premier alpine playground, where you can spend your days carving down runs like the challenging Wardeh or the family-friendly Warde. When the snow melts, the landscape reveals a different character, perfect for hiking the trails around Lake Mzaar or enjoying a lively après-ski atmosphere in the village of Faraya. The views from the peak across the Mount Lebanon range are spectacular any time of year.

The area caters mainly to leisure travelers, from groups of friends on ski trips to families seeking a mountain retreat. Staying in Faraya village puts you closest to the restaurants and nightlife, while accommodations nearer the Mzaar ski lifts offer ski-in/ski-out convenience. Renting a car is highly recommended, as it’s about a 45-minute drive from Beirut and public transport to the mountains is limited. The season dictates the crowd; expect a energetic social scene on winter weekends.

Accommodation here is dominated by chalets and mid-range to upscale hotels focused on slope access. On our site, you can find options like the Mzaar Hotel & Spa, located right at the base of the gondola, or the more intimate Chalet Chbat in the heart of Faraya. Most properties prioritize those stunning mountain views and easy access to the outdoors.
