Jordan's renovated Movenpick Nabatean Castle Hotel in Petra reopens

Petra's Mövenpick Nabatean Castle Hotel has officially reopened following the completion of an extensive renovation and enhancement project.

Highlights of the revamp include 90 rooms decorated in natural tones and featuring modern showers and new tile flooring at this fortress-style hotel, which is located close to Jordan's most visited attraction - the ancient city of Petra, also known as the 'Red Rose City'.

As part of the renovation, a new Bedouin tent has been built where traditional Jordanian cuisine and Arabic coffee are served while the revised layout at the Nadeem Bar & Terrace promises views of Mount Aroun, the area's highest peak.

The property has also introduced new tailor-made experiences such as mountain-view bonfires.

Mövenpick Nabatean Castle Hotel is located just 10 minutes from the entrance to Petra - a 2,000-year-old UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the 'new seven wonders of the world'.
