Don Jose Lounge Bar is the rooftop venue at Al Murjan Palace Hotel in Jounieh, with a glass ceiling, indoor and outdoor seating, and panoramic sea and mountain views over Jounieh Bay. It serves drinks and dinner, and hosts private events for up to 130 guests.

The setting

The glass ceiling is what distinguishes it from most Lebanese rooftops: the views stay open when the weather turns, and the indoor and outdoor seating means the venue works across seasons rather than only in high summer.

Best time to visit

Sunset. Arrive roughly 30–45 minutes before dusk for the best light over the bay, then stay as the rooftop moves into its evening character — cocktails, dinner and the lights of Jounieh below.

Dining

The rooftop serves drinks and dinner; the hotel’s on-site restaurant covers Lebanese, Italian and international cuisine and daily breakfast.

Private events

Don Jose hosts sunset ceremonies, cocktail receptions and corporate functions for up to 130 guests, with in-house catering and a dedicated coordinator.
