Would go again
the hotel was for oriental circumstances and for the fact, that Marriott didnt build it but bought it after years in a good condition. the people were very, very friendly - only the "overbooking" of the hotel irritated a little bit. the food and the ambiente was very nice!
Neighbourhood recommendations: Petra - archaeological site Little Petra Wadi room Castle Shobek and Kerak one day to the Dead Sea one day to Aqaba
Not impressed....
Too far from Petra site, courtesy shuttle only ran a few times in the morning and a few times in the afternoon. The rest of the time you have to get a taxi as it is far too far to walk and I like walking normally and it was too far even for me! Bathroom in room was 2-3 star rather than five star, shower was broken. Tiles were filthy. Asked for shower to be fixed, noone ever came. Lift well next to us woke us up all night as lift was noisy (worryingly sounded broken). Food in the italian style restaurant was awful. Bar food was ok. Views of sunset were nice but not enough to recommend a stay here. This absolutely is not a five star hotel by any stretch of the imagination. I would recommend staying at the Movenpick or Petra Guest House as they looked far superior and are adjacent to the entrance to the site.
Neighbourhood recommendations: Stay walking distance to the site, if you want five star go for the Movenpick.
Must-see: 2 days is enough, but one day not enough to properly see Petra. There is a lot of hiking but it is absolutely worth it. Totally amazing. Enjoy x
Nice hotel let down by service
The hotel is nice- a little way out of town but it's cheap enough to get a taxi. The shuttle bus is a bit sporadic so I wouldn't recommend waiting for that. The service was a bit hit and miss- sometimes it was hard to get a drink but sometimes you would be turning away 4 waiters! I would stay there again.
