We travelled with VJV for 4 nights in Aqaba and then 3 nights at the Dead Sea. We upgraded to Kempinskis with half board at both locations. We couldn't wait to get out of the one at Aqaba. The hotel is ultra modern, and at first glance certainly has a Wow factor. The problem is that it is style over... more

The hotel is brand spanking new! We arrived the day after the king of Jordan had officially opened the hotel. You could still smell the paint and plaster in the rooms. The bright white rooms are very clean with modern amenities. The bathroom has a wall made of glass giving the room an open plan impression. If the bath was... more

Me and my wife stayed here for 7 nights, during the grand opening week. We are travelling av lot and demands good quality and service - here you got it, actually the best relaxing holiday we ever had, even if there was a lot of work going on on the beach for several days cause the big grand opening party.... more

Beautiful modern hotel with very high levels of service. We were there in early november and the grand opening was 5 days away (they were still doing some last minute work on detailing). Most of the rooms have balconies with a great view of the sea (all forward looking). The room (deluxe) lacked a seating area, except for the chairs... more

What a fan tastic hotel ! Elisabeth Sweden We had spent 5 nights at the Moevenpick Dead Sea( extremely overpriced and average service) and arrived at Kempinski Hotel after a 4h drive through the dessert. What a welcome !! Even if we were driving the cheapest of rental cars, we were treated as royals !! Valet parking, cold towels when... more

This hotel is fabulous. Bedrooms are spacious with a massive bed and fabulous views out to the red sea. The mini bar is free though it is worth noting that it only includes 2 beers a day, the rest is non-alcoholic. Service is first class and includes touches such as cold flannels, water and cold fruit presented (free) to you... more

I can certainly recommend this hotel. The room (light, large and ultra modern), hotel features, food, and service were all outstanding and well. The beach front location was great too! The hotel is clearly less established than some of the other hotels in Aqaba. This may also explain the background to the relatively low number of guests visiting the hotel... more

This is the first time I've done a Trip Advisor review but having had such a wonderful stay I felt I had to tell the world how great this place is! My husband and I have just arrived back in the UK after a week long stay at this hotel at the end of October 2009. We were looking for... more

The best hotel I've stayed at. Excellent service, style and class. The pool, beach and restaurants are all amazing. And Richard, the pool bartender, is great! The staff pays close attention to details including hand-made soaps by the bed and serving fresh fruit at the beach. A wonderful experience and amazing hotel. more
