About Moevenpick Resort Petra
Located directly at the entrance to the historical Nabatean city of Petra, the luxurious Moevenpick Resort Petra is certainly one of the most notable hotels in the Middle East. The resort is renowned for its intricate Arabesque interior design, and collection of antiques and artwork. Boasting 183 rooms and suites, seven restaurants, lounges, bars, attractive roof garden, library and gift shop, the resort also offers a wellness centre with outdoor swimming pool, steam bath and gymnasium.
Petra lies about 3-5 hours south of modern Amman, about 2 hours north of Aqaba, on the edges of the mountainous desert of the Wadi Araba. The city is surrounded by towering hills of rust-coloured sandstone, which gave the city some natural protection against invaders. The Moevenpick Resort Petra is located at the entrance to the famous Petra site.
