Had a truly enjoyable stay at the Movenpick Resort & Residence in Aqaba, Jordan. Was immediately upgraded to Junior Suite upon arrival. The room was clean, spacious and since it was a corner unit, provided a quiet and relaxing stay. The room has tv, fridge, coffee station and small patio. My only complaint is that you have to pay to... More

Again we were not disappointed at all with the hotel and the staff were friendly and helpful. While we did not have time to eat at the Red Sea... More

We thought this was a great resort hotel, the best we have stayed in anywhere (even better than the Moevenpick on the Dead Sea). Our room was large, well fitted and very comfotable. Service was friendly and efficient. We particularly liked the resort area and beach, reached by a covered bridge from the main part of the hotel. The whole... More

Good hotel, but service is a bit hit and miss. It is also not great if you are in the main building, you have to go over the internal bridge to the pool, which is quite a walk. Air con in the room was not cooling enough, complaint did not help

The hotel itself is very beautiful and is located by the sea side, however, having had a sea view we had to face the road first (with never stopping cars) and then you get to see the sea. For us it was frustrating as we were planning to have a proper by the sea vacation. Additionaly you have all those... More

We stayed here in March as part of our tour of Jordan.

Elaborate and well maintained, although not new. Good staff, fairly well organized rooms and good service. Free wired or wireless internet BUT avoid the in-hotel Red Sea Grill. My wife and I had a tasty dinner there which, for me, was followed by three days of stomach distress-based on timing, there wea no other offender possible.
