The history of the Phoenicians is a long and complex one, spanning thousands of years.

The Phoenicians were an ancient people who inhabited the coastal regions of what is now modern-day Lebanon, Syria, and parts of Israel from as early as 1500 BC. They established several independent city-states, the most prominent of which were Tyre, Sidon, and Byblos. These city-states were strategically located along the eastern Mediterranean coast, and their inhabitants were skilled sailors and traders.

The Phoenicians are often regarded as some of the earliest maritime pioneers of the ancient world. They developed advanced shipbuilding techniques and navigation skills, which allowed them to explore and establish trade networks throughout the Mediterranean. They were known for their distinctive ship, the galley, which was powered by oars and sails.

We took the first steps in 1996, with the takeover of the first hotels from the seaside: Perla Hotel and Majestic Hotel. We caught wings and we followed our dreams. Two years later two more hotels joined both on the sea side: one in Olimp and another in Jupiter.

Our  first hotel with a business concept in the capital opens, after a construction that lasted 2 years.

Phoenicia Grand Hotel features a capacity of 348 rooms and apartments, a dedicated space of 1000 sqm for conferences and events,  10 conference rooms, 200 parking spaces and probably has the richest breakfast in town.

In 2009, a new concept appeared in the Mamaia Nord area: Phoenicia Holiday Resort, the first resort on the Romanian coast. The Complex provides over 1200 accommodation places in 420 apartments, a parking lot with 400 places, restaurants, bars, relaxation terraces, swimming pools and waterfalls, children’s playgrounds, play center, summer theater. Phoenicia Luxury Hotel joined the Phoenician family in 2013 then Phoenicia Royal, and then, in 2019 Phoenicia Boutique.

An extensive renovation was completed in 2019 at the Lido hotel Bucharest. Lido Hotel is a part of Phoenicia Hotels and it is a page in the history of Bucharest. The building was designed and made in the smallest details by a famous architect of the interwar period, Ernest Doneaud. The architecture of the building which is situated in the heart of “Little Paris”, on Magheru Boulevard, is embedded in the modernist current with Art Deco elements, which gives it unique beauty and unmatched historical value.

In 2016 the Complex Amfiteatru, Panoramic, Belvedere, the pearl of the Romanian coast, entered the Phoenician portfolio, completely renovated with a new look that has taken into account its historical values and a new name that symbolizes a tribute to the sea. Located in Olimp, with an area of approximately 47,000 square meters and a total number of over 1,500 accommodation places, the 4-star complex offers to its guests a private beach, 4 swimming pools, 2 restaurants, 2 bars and a cafe, but also numerous other facilities. It is a place that impresses with its grandeur, but also with its special design that makes you think of the French romantic style.
