From the door when I first arrived, the security came to check my belongings, it was ok for me since it is for safety. But when checking in the front desk, the reception employee told me that food is not allowed to come in to the hotel from outside. This must be informed before the reservation was confirmed, not after midnight check in.

This was a fantastic stay, and it was my first time there. The people were extremely helpful, spoke excellent English, and made me feel very welcome. The rooms were tremendous and the bed was very comfortable, so I got really good rest.

This is a really nice, upscale hotel located about half a mile from the seafront in Aqaba. The photographs on the website don't do the hotel justice - the lobby and reception are beautiful. Service was good and the staff are friendly. The restaurant offers a buffet dinner for around $15 JOD/each and alcohol is available in the hotel . There are car parking spaces at the front the property which are free of charge. The room was pleasant with a large balcony overlooking the city.
