Rixos Al Nasr
Tripoli, Libya · Rixos · Core Luxury
Rixos Al Nasr occupies about 20,000 square metres of eucalyptus parkland in the Al Nasr district, a low-rise 120-room Turkish luxury house opened in 2010 beside the Guest Palace. Indoor pool, spa, and a large convention centre sit inside the trees — a forested compound in the heart of Tripoli rather than a Corniche tower. In 2011 it was the heavily guarded hotel where foreign correspondents covering the capital were based. The live Rixos destination list no longer includes Tripoli; the house still trades under the Rixos Al Nasr name.

About Rixos Al Nasr
- The hotel opened in 2010 as a 120-room Rixos on roughly 20,000 m² of eucalyptus woodland near Al Khadra Hospital Bridge and the Guest Palace.
- From spring through August 2011 the compound was the Gaddafi-era press hotel: journalists were required to stay there under government minders until they left the building on 24 August.
- Meeting space originally ran to ten rooms and about 1,487 m²; on-site restaurants included Lalezar and Ocaliptus.
History
Rixos Hotels opened Al Nasr in 2010 as a five-star business and VIP house in a eucalyptus grove in central Tripoli. During the 2011 war it became the capital's main foreign-press compound. The property is not on the current global Rixos destination list, but the guest-facing name remains Rixos Al Nasr.
