On our second day we made our way to the rooftop for breakfast. There was no breakfast there so we went to reception and asked why. The receptionist said that they were having the kitchen renovated so we would have to walk to the sister hotel for breakfast. I explained that we should have been notified of any planned works and disruption before we arrived and given the option to change our plans. She just said sorry. We walked to the sister hotel and I raised the same points to the manager there, he just said sorry too. We would have cancelled and booked a different hotel had we know of this planned disruption before we left the uk

Hotel is fine. Worked for our family of 5 - decent place to rest for the night. Beds are comfortable and clean. Shower has hot water and great pressure, although they really need to fix the doors so that water doesn’t run everywhere. If you need a clean room on a budget, this is your place.

We stayed in the Panoramic Townhome, which is basically two hotel rooms, not connected, each with a king-sized bed and a twin bed. The room looked like the photos and was nice. The Expedia description says that the Panoramic Townhome has a sea view, but apparently some do and some don’t. We were assigned a room without, and the hotel said they had no sea views available and would not discount the room, as they consider that it was Expedia’s problem, not theirs. The map on the Expedia description gave a completely different location, but luckily I found this before I went. There were other inconsistencies on Expedia as well. The pool was very small and very cold, and the window was too dirty to see the view, but the view from the rest of the terrace was very nice, and this is also where breakfast is served. The breakfast was very basic Arab breakfast, with a couple of odd dishes thrown in. Curb appeal was lacking, kind of a storefront deal with a lighted sign that blinked fast.

Trop cher et très sale
Nous avions réservé un séjour de quatre nuits car notre vol arrivait à 2 heures du matin à Amman et nous souhaitions débuter notre circuit par Aqaba en ayant immédiatement accès à une chambre pour nous doucher et prendre le petit-déjeuner. À notre arrivée à 8 heures du matin, on nous a informés que le petit-déjeuner n'était pas inclus, malgré avoir déjà payé une nuit. Après avoir admis leur erreur, nous avons été surpris de prendre le petit-déjeuner dans un autre hôtel, car celui où nous étions ne le proposait pas. Cependant, le pire était à venir ! Notre fils de 4 ans a eu deux accidents de pipi au lit (oui, cela peut arriver !) et les draps n'ont pas été changés, nous avons même été réprimandés pour avoir demandé à refaire uniquement son lit puisque le ménage n'a jamais été fait durant notre séjour ! De plus, lorsque nous avons demandé à changer les draps pour le lit de mon fils, nous avons été accusés d'avoir mis le panneau "Ne pas déranger" sur la porte au lieu du ménage. Ceci était un mensonge que nous avons pu leur prouver avec leur vidéo surveillance. En conclusion, la chambre n'a jamais été nettoyée pendant notre séjour de quatre jours. Je déconseille fortement cet établissement, qui est le plus cher que nous ayons payé en Jordanie, et je compte le signaler au service client.

Mooi verblijf en vriendelijk personeel. Als twee westerse meisjes die solo reisden hadden we beter iets in het toeristische centrum geboekt. We voelden ons, buiten het hotel, niet veilig. We hebben ons hotel dan ook maar voor 10 minuten verlaten. Jammer, want het personeel was zeer vriendelijk.
