Kempinski Hotel Ishtar Dead Sea & Aqaba Red Sea Review

Beautiful hotel, spotless clean and spacious rooms, and very friendly staff. Unlike other newer hotels in Aqaba that have man-made lagoons, Kempinski has access to a perfect sandy beach with crystal clear water. The breakfast buffet is quite good considering COVID restrictions, in-room dining was excellent (note that the chef custom made our order to perfection because the items we ordered were not on the menu). Highly recommended for a few days in the coastal city.

The most great service in Aqaba.
Special thanks to Ms Bara she show outstanding performance and was very helpful.

One of the best stays ever! The hotel was beyond our expectations as a family! The staff were very welcoming and friendly! The rooms are very clean and the furniture is very nice! Would recommend it as one of the best hotels in Aqaba! I would rate it as a 5 star plus hotel!

The staff here is well trained from the reception and the lifeguards and managers ..

The rooms and the view very comfy and spectacular view but my advice.

Food is very good ..
Beach is very good and clean
The pool is unique in the area

I like coming to Kempinski Aqaba to have a break from work. This place delivers what I expect and look for, when it comes to leaving everything behind and just enjoy some time off this place is the one. I came here with friends, family and alone it adapts to all my needs. The food here is just perfect and since the hotel is right in the middle of the heart of Aqaba city I can grab a bite or a drink from any local restaurant 5 minutes walk away.

During the time of the painful pandemic, I just wanted to say to the hotel staff thank you for all what you ve done to keep this place enjoyable and welcoming, and I wish all go back to normal for everyone to create even better memories.

Best Beach in all Aqaba

Best service ever, even when compared with hotels outside of Jordan

The cleanest in Aqaba even when compared with other hotels that costs more

Food is amazing

I m not a big fan of adding recommendations but this hotel deserve it.

I will do it again, hopefully soon.

One note for you, reserve using their app Discovery to get an extra 10-15% discount.

There were many restrictions on Corona and Ramadan, but I don't doubt that it was the best hotel for our family trip...Staff are friendly and very grateful for welcoming us in our language. My kids were very upset to leave here. I will visit again.

A great hotel with a great service ... for those who would like to have a great experience

This was our first family vacation for some time, and I like to take a moment and to thank all the staff at this amazing place for their phenomenal hospitality.... you really made this holiday special!!

Thank you!!

We had an amazing experience at this hotel. Was very beautiful and the service was amazing. I love that the pool and beach are so close to thr hotel room section so no walking a long time to get to them which is ideal when having children. I hope to come back again.
