30 hotel reviews for Mövenpick Resort Petra
At first glance very beautiful hotel in an Arabian style. Room was also clean and large. Appalling the breakfast was: stuck table, dirty stained chairs and food remainders on the walls.
Rooftop dreamlike view was because of 'winter' closed! A great shame and inflexible!
No worth 5 stars. Scored too many with the location: right opposite from the entrance to Petra! Read more

... without a problem. The decor is typically very good Mövenpick , inspired by the architecture of the region. Big minus is the prices of the restaurant in the hotel: the buffet is 28 euros los, without drinks. If you then to restaurants outside of the hotel you want to avoid, will again disappointed: the food is in Petra-unlike most of Jordan-a shame.... Read more

Very nice typical hotel. The lobby is worth seeing. It was everything very clean and noble decorated. The guest structure was well mixed.
The size and the superior room was a five star hotel adequate. It was very clean and pleasant furnished.
The service was in all areas great. The staff always friendly.
The cleaning of the rooms was all right.
The standard rooms go too many to the hotel lobby, one has there no natural light!
The buffet morning and evenings was very good, it left nothing to be desired.
The quality was good and it was regular... Read more

A really nice hotel with all Oriental luxury. Excellent food-you cannot even go out :-).
Staff was very friendly. Especially recommended are the evenings on the roof terrace with romantic views.
Two or three nights you plan should, then you have time to visit the city and the surrounding area very well and can relax. Read more

Hotel in general

Being that the only attraction of the area are Petra and the dessert,it is a hotel for one or two nights max,but this is not a detriment to the hotel.It is by far the best in this area - in June 11
I live in Jordan and when I want to take my visiting friends to Petra I always choose this hotel. It is the best and the closest to the entrance which is very important when you come back tired and want to relax.
