Find Hotels in Dead Sea, Jordan

Kempinski Ishtar is a stunning hotel. Last time when I visited Dead Sea, I stayed at Movenpick hotel which was already good, but Kempinski easily surpasses all the criteria you can judge. The grounds are huge and exceptionally beautiful. They have several pools, two of them are heated so that you can do a long swimming lapse, or chill out and watching sunset at Dead Sea in a mild weather in December. F&B are good, especially the breakfast line. It's quite extraordinary that they have Blanc de blancs in the breakfast line without any additional charge! The only (very minor) comments about breakfast line is that there is no fresh fruit smoothies station. Also, you cannot bring your own alcohol into the property (they scan your luggage!). So be prepared to pay for expensive drinks (with a hefty Jordanian alcohol taxes) Spa facilities are also exceptional. There are both indoor and outdoor pools. The most interesting one is indoor "Dead Sea" pool where they pumped Dead Sea water in. Therapists are great - most of them are from Thailand so they know how to use the right amount of pressure to relax your muscles. Highly recommended!

There's not much to do in Dead Sea except to enjoy the experience of floating and relaxing in the Dead Sea. This is a comfortable resort hotel to spend the entire day since there's no activity outside of the resort. Courteous and gentle lifeguards who assist at the beach just in case the "extremely" salty sea water gets into the eyes or to walk into the sea covered with rocks and crystalized salts on the sea bed for the first time.

The one and only favorite hotel in Dead Sea.. The staff were the most friendly ever, especially: 1. Front desk and reception: Rami and Amer Nawaji. 2. House keeping Mr. Omar Nawaji. 3. Room service: Rami. 4. Food and beverage: Ali Mansour. All of these amazing folks makes your stay unforgettable.. Yet, the beach, I’d suggest to replace the stones with sands instead. And regarding the adults pool, it would be more cheerful if it has more energetic atmosphere from a DJ to pool bar and animation team. Best wishes and keep it up Mariott Staff. Shareef Shanableh

We went in the height of summer and were almost the only westerners in the whole hotel, however we didn't feel at a disadvantage in any way - both staff and other guests were very friendly and pleasant. It is a family hotel so there were lots of children running about and playing in the (rather small) pools, so if you're bothered by the shrieks of kids enjoying themselves, this is not the place for you. However, I have rarely come across such friendly and helpful staff who made our stay a complete pleasure. There are interesting sites nearby, for example the place where John the Baptist baptised Jesus, and the hotel will arrange a car for you. Considering the remoteness of the location and thus the fact that you area captive audience I wouldn't say the charge for this was exorbitant. The beach attached to the hotel (accessed via a shuttle bus every 1/2 hour) is almost lunar in its bleakness, but then this is no ordinary sea. There's a man to dispense towels who doubled up as a lifeguard, a bucket of Dead Sea mud which you can daub onto yourself and your loved ones, a few loungers and umbrellas and a weedy shower, however I have no complaints about any of this as basic needs were met. There was no opportunity to buy water or snacks, but I think that this was because we had come out of season and were, indeed, the only 2 people in the water for as far as the eye could see. I recommend this hotel for a short and comfortable stay but beware of the children if you're of a curmudgeonly nature.

Really great location, secluded with beautiful Dead Sea views. With a private hot water spring (indoor and outdoor pools), it's the perfect place to relax and unwind. The staff are warm and friendly, and want to help, despite most not speaking any English. Internet works close to the office. I asked if I could pay by credit card in advance of ordering any food, and was assured this was possible, as I was low on cash and on my way back to the airport. When their credit card machine didn't work, the owner told me it was "on the house." Really wonderful hospitality. Would recommend to anyone.

we managed to get a room here for a night for 75 EUR, which was really good value. I have stayed in 3 resorts on the Dead Sea Jordan side, from cheap to super expensive, and this one was really good value. Food was decent, not gonna blow your mind and could use more fresh fruits etc, the place was clean and the staff were pretty good. It's also is pretty quiet and relaxed, not full of big groups and families like the Dead Sea Spa resort. the place is looking a little dated these days, but the location, the Dead Sea beach, and the pools are all good. Room was a good size, quiet and nice furnishings. if you want super luxury and can afford it, go Kempinski, without a doubt. But otherwise I would choose here for value.
