Fodor's Expert Review Kempinski Hotel Aqaba

King Hussein St., Aqaba, 77110, Jordan Fodor's Choice

If you're wondering why there is no art on the white walls of this swanky, ultramodern luxury property, it's intentional: the focus is on the sea view, and every room has one, along with a balcony. Guest rooms are spacious, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing in a minimalist way. Public spaces have vast windows that look out to the Red Sea and the pool area. Expect to feel pampered here: standard service at a Kempinksi property is luxury service at most other hotels.

PROS

  • fabulous views
  • excellent service

CONS

  • you might never only want to stay at Kempinski properties ever again
  • might feel too polished if you're looking for local flavor
