Hotels in Middle East
A region that spans Western Asia and North-Eastern Africa, the Middle East might not be at the top of every traveller’s list, often being overlooked in favour of South America and South East Asia. However, those who have visited know just how special this area of the world is and that’s why holidaymakers who travel to the Middle East can’t resist returning time and time again.
Jordan is one of the most popular destinations in the region, with tourists flocking to the country to discover the area’s incredible street cafes and enjoy mint tea and shisha. The people of Jordan are renowned for being friendly, kind and approachable, and will really help to make your trip one you’ll never forget. The accommodation here is just as excellent, with gems like the Kempinski Hotel Ishtar (the lowest point on Earth!) and the Jordan Valley Marriott Resort & Spa providing you with a sumptuous home from home.
