Summary: Great staff lovely rooms
Stuart Feb 2, 2026 07:04:26 PM
Summary: There is a lot to like about the hotel, particularly its location on the Dead Sea. The things I enjoyed as well as the hotels setting, were the overall ambiance of the common parts - the large reception areas and associated seating area and the huge display of flowers, sculpture and comfortable seating. The infinity swimming pool which was beautiful if a little warm for me. The staff members I spoke to were all helpful and one or two who I got chatting to were absolutely charming. I liked how well the bathing area was set up at the Dead Sea which allowed you to really enjoy this novel experience and then have a nice shower afterwards. The things I did not like so much was firstly, and importantly, my room which was in the main block. I did not like the design of the room, the finishes, the artwork, the lighting, the strange design of the balcony ( albeit had an amazing view) or the grey finishes in the bathroom and a poor shower. The other thing I did not like is how far away from everything the rooms in the main block are. The hotel is large on multiple levels and you have to walk a fair distance using a number of lifts and staircases to get to the facilities - if you are older like (like me!) This is tiresome. I understand that there is a buggy service but it would be easier to stay in one of the apartments which are away from the main building and close to beach, main pools and restaurant. I would definitely come back and stay at this hotel but only in a different room

Summary: Wonderful staff and service at the Kempinski Dead Sea resort. Unfortunately the spa facility was closed for repair, so we weren’t able to enjoy it as planned, however the personnel throughout the resort more than made up for the disappointment with their kind and attentive service.
Michel Jan 13, 2026 10:54:54 PM
Summary: Staying here was the highlight of our tour of Jordan when it came to the accommodation and people. The property is amazing, highly well kept and the staff extremely helpful and engaging and couldn’t do more to help make sure you had a fantastic time. We stayed in one of the panaromic rooms by Resense, within the Spa area. Huge room and beautiful views from our private terrace. Highly recommend this option as it also gives you full access to the wonderful spa facilities too! Special mention has to be made to the “Lady in Red” team of Era and Ivan. Such incredibly energetic and helpful humans. Likewise Alla the Front Desk manager who from the moment we arrived to when we left was so helpful with our room and suggestions of places to visit. All 3 are a great valuable asset to the hotel and brand. Thank you for making my birthday trip so extra special. Of course there was the delicious food, beautiful infinity pool and private beach future mud experience! Highly recommend staying here.

Summary: Excellent service, everyone was incredibly friendly and going out of their way to help and ensure we were having a good stay | the resort itself is gorgeous with great architecture and amenities, especially the spa and outdoor heated pool | where the hotel loses is the room itself (we had the panoramic view room) as it's incredibly dated and falling apart.
Mohabbat Pal Dec 28, 2025 11:29:30 AM
Summary: I recently stayed at the Kempinski Hotel Ishtar Dead Sea and really enjoyed the beautiful setting and direct access to the Dead Sea. The mud bath was a definite highlight. However, breakfast was disappointing — the staff felt inattentive and rarely acknowledged me, which affected an otherwise great stay. Overall, a lovely hotel with room to improve on service at breakfast.
Caleb Dec 24, 2025 06:24:59 PM
Summary: The staff scammed me out of the 20JD credit.
Yasemin Dec 17, 2025 05:24:20 PM
Summary: Great hotel. Very clean room. Can’t praise the staff enough. Very responsive and courteous staff. Great location right on the Dead Sea. Wonderful views, beautiful sunsets. Gulf carts readily available to take one around the property which is quite large. Also enjoyed the spa, felt very pampered. Overall, wonderful stay. Highly recommend.
