Leisure and Recreation

The hotel features Al Saraya Ballroom, which can accommodate up to 300 people for conferences, exhibitions, concerts, workshops, lectures, banquets, receptions, and cocktails.

“This hotel recreates a late 19th-century Jordanian village, offering a markedly different experience from typical Wadi Musa accommodations with its cultural focus and extensive event spaces; it's a destination for those looking to immerse themselves in local heritage. I particularly appreciate the architectural details and the on-site handicraft market, which underscore its commitment to authenticity. A slightly longer drive to Petra is a trade-off for a more unique stay.”
