Stayed two nights at the end of our trip to wind down and relax. The guidebooks rate this as the best resort in aqaba. The hotel certainly looks impressive, the rooms are huge especially the massive bathroom with separate bath and shower. It has a great location at the northern end of the strip with a great private beach that... More

Stayed for 3 nigths with my girlfriend. The hotel is huge, with different pools, gardens, restaurants etc. The location couldn't be better: it is right on the sea with private beach. The breakfast is very diverse and qualitative. The room was not huge but very confortable and clean, with lot's of amenities. The gym is very nice, even with a... More

This was a very good hotel and the beach was clean and nice. Near the town and the local restaurants, which were much cheaper. No problem to take some beers to your room or a bottle of wine. It was a sign about that this was not allowed bit nobody said anything.

I stayed in the Intercotinental with my girlfriend and parents in law who had booked the hotel. When you arrive at the hotel you immediately notice how immense it is; a very spacious (slightly kitsch) entrance hall, the cosy bar with terrace and the 'corniche' restaurant with delicious breakfast and buffet. Same goes for the rooms which are very spacious... More

Very nice architecture and the facilities are well maintained. The room I had was incredible - huge bathroom with separate tub and shower, nice balcony view... More

Our accommodation was booked through Jordan Direct Tours as part of a week and a bit long tour. Reception staff were indifferent when checking in and average at other times but at least they didn’t run and hide like the Concierge did on occasions. Room was nice and spacious and very clean although one phone had lost all its pre-sets.... More

The hotel was the best pick for us for our stay in Aqaba. The restaurant was overpriced but nice. Better to eat in town. The pool area was nice and the staff very friendly. Good breakfast with genuine jordanien food.
