Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

InterContinental Aqaba always provides the best and most enjoyable stay. The resort is very nice and relaxing, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. They ensure that my stay is both exciting and relaxing. I really enjoyed my room and the amazing beachfront view on the club floor, and the customer experience is really great. The spa and health club are really amazing, and Mr. Sami Kamal is truly the best. He always ensures that I have the most extraordinary stay. I also liked the new IHG fine dining breakfast section. It adds an extra special touch to the breakfast experience, thanks to Mr. Mohammad Saleh. InterContinental Aqaba has been my relaxing gateway for many years now.
