My stay at this hotel was very disappointing. The staff was not professional and did not make me feel welcome. The restroom smelled bad, which made the room uncomfortable, and there were several broken items in the room that should have been fixed before guests checked in. Overall, the experience was far below expectations, and I would not recommend this hotel.

Air conditioner not working in the lobby at all, was told they were repairing it for 3 days. The room temperature would not cool the room below 75 degrees. They said repaired it 3 times still wasnt working by checkout. This is my third stay here and the Staff was amazing but I will never return. There are way better choices in Aqaba.

Couldn't fault this hotel!

Excellent service right from the very start, I think our stay has been outstanding. Fantastic hotel, great location, wonderful staff. The only "fault" I can find is the lack of electrical outlets in the room, makes charging phones/laptops etc. challenging. Gem, one of the Filipino staff in the Club lounge, and also at breakfast is a true "Gem". She's always smiling and friendly. Noor, our waitress at breakfast today was also wonderful.

Highly recommend this wonderful luxury hotel

A beautiful modern hotel with private beach. From the moment you check in , staff makes you feel special with impeccable service everywhere in the hotel. The rooms are spacious and offer free non alcoholic drinks in room fridge. Balcony overlooking the Red Sea. Breakfast buffet had a large selection of delicious food. Ate at two restaurants in the hotel The food was delicious and the service was great . The location of the hotel is excellent , a short walk to the Center where there are restaurant and stores. We loved our stay. Next time we will come for a longer time !

Nice beach area with soft sand and clear waters. However the passing tourist boats were very disturbing and annoying. Staff is very friendly and helpful but service for room service was very slow- took over an hour to get a few basic dishes. Rooms were nice, clean and big. Overall we had a nice experience but I think this hotel is priced too high for what is offered. If I had known what was at the hotel and in Aqaba I would not have stayed in this town and this hotel for such high prices.

Fantastic stay but do not respect gold status

The stay was fantastic. Great people, great facilities and perfect location. It is probably a bit harsh of me to only give 4 stars, but it annoys me so much that they don’t respect the Expedia gold service of free upgrade if available. Upgrade of rooms was obviously available because they tried to sell it to me. We also could have an earlier check in if we paid for the upgrade and early check in is also supposed to be included in the Expedia/hotels.com gold privileges. The lack of upgrades is however in general a non-existing and false advertising of the Expedia/hotels.com so perhaps it is just as much a blame on Expedia, but Kempinski takes it to a new level by trying to sell you the upgrade you are supposed to have included (the same happens in the Kempinski hotel by the Dead Sea). Except from this little annoyance a great stay with fantastic staff.

I recently had the opportunity to stay at the Kempinski Hotel Aqaba, and I must say it was a fantastic experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff was incredibly attentive and welcoming, making me feel instantly at ease. The hotel itself was spotlessly clean, and I was impressed by the attention to detail in maintaining cleanliness throughout the property. From the lobby to the rooms, everything was immaculate, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. Speaking of the rooms, mine was spacious, well-designed, and equipped with all the necessary amenities. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep, and the bathroom was pristine and well-stocked with essential toiletries. I also had the chance to take advantage of some of the hotel's facilities, such as the pool and spa. Both were kept in excellent condition and provided a relaxing and rejuvenating experience. One standout feature of my stay was the food. The hotel's restaurant offered a wide array of delicious options, and I thoroughly enjoyed every meal I had there. The breakfast buffet was particularly impressive, with a vast selection of fresh and tasty dishes to choose from. Overall, my stay at the Kempinski Hotel Aqaba was exceptional. The cleanliness was top-notch, and the attention to detail truly made a difference in ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay. I will definitely be returning in the future and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.
