If you like bad service stay here

In 50 years of travel this hotel had the worst service. 4 calls to get coffeepods and coffeemate. Bathroom scale didnt work and was never fixed. Coffee machine itself didn't work. No need to stay here.

Air conditioner not working in the lobby at all, was told they were repairing it for 3 days. The room temperature would not cool the room below 75 degrees. They said repaired it 3 times still wasnt working by checkout. This is my third stay here and the Staff was amazing but I will never return. There are way better choices in Aqaba.

The stays was absolutely wonderful. The property is stunning in its design and well maintained. The staff were extraordinary in their way of making me feel welcome and taken care.

Perfect stay in a great hotel. The staff were faultless. The room was large and clean with a great bath and view. The food was of high quality and the bars were well stocked with friendly staff keen to meet all demands. The breakfast was high quality and varied. The spa was flexible and accommodating. The massage was of the highest quality and is recommended.
