Nice quiet hotel in the centre of Aqaba. Nothing exceptional, but suited us fine. Big room but very small bathroom - daft layout. Good breakfast. Nice outdoor pool area, but not surprisingly too cold in January. Lots of bars and restaurants nearby More

I liked this hotel, primarily because of the central location - you can walk to shops and restaurants in a few minutes which was great as we were only there for two nights.Not so good if you are there primarily for the diving etc as the public beaches in walking distance did not look very clean and were pretty packed,...

we used this hotel as base for a two day trip to jordan - good that we only stayed for one night - welcome was pretty cold - room was OK but the bathroom was the smallest I've ever seen - all the alcohol prices look OK but then you get hit by a service charge and tax AND everyone... More

We arrived late and checked out first thing in the morning. I cannot say a lot, but the breakfast was the best we had in Jordan. Fresh egg cook in the buffet. We sat by the pool to eat and it was romantic and nice. The room was clean, well laid out and comfortable. A good size. The staff was... More

On a recent organised tour of Jordan we stayed at this hotel for three nights, where we were welcomed by staff with trays of soft drinks, and then allocated twin room 619 which is on the top floor. This had been the third hotel during our tour, and this was certainly a better choice by the tour company compared to... More

Stayed 2 nights but didn't make much use of facilities as we went to Wadi Rum one day and were waiting to leave for the airport on the next, so really it was simply a base in which to sleep. The hotel has a good central location and comes across as a very middle-of-the-road establishment such as one finds in... More

The hotel was about on a par with a Comfort Inn, which is pretty high praise for Jordan. The breakfast was extremely crowded, as they really pack the groups in there for the one night stays, and the layout of breakfast was very disorganized. More
