As the name suggests, this was a former village converted into a large, well-designed and luxurious hotel. Our room was spacious and comfortable and the outdoor pool was very welcoming after a day of walking around the wonderful ruins of Petra Read more

Fascinating hotel with charming rooms, great staff and facilities.

Very much like an old village, very charming.
Location
On a hilltop overlooking the town, although it takes a few minutes to drive to the entrance of Petra a shuttle was offered to guests so there was no issue for transportation. A very quite place to rest after a long day of hiking with all the needed amenities. Much closer than the Marriott to Petra
Staff
Everyone was very polite and responsive to requests.

Amazing hotel; location secluded - that is either a pro or negative depending on your style.

Tips for future travelers

Just know that you will not be in the main town of Petra where you can walk around, etc., but the property itself is beautiful. Great for one night, but if I were staying there 2 nights I would be bored unless I booked a spa package at night.
