Jordan has always had a great range of 3 star and locally owned hotels, but most tour operators have chosen not to feature them, instead, preferring the international brands. At Discovery Circle we like both, big international branded hotels and small independents, mainly family owned or in some cases built to fill a gap in the market.

Our choice of hotels and accommodation is based on our tour operator partners and their preferences. So for some, we offer the Four Seasons in Amman, and for other it’s the Hisham or Art Hotel. Whatever hotel we included in your quotes you can be sure it is the best fit with your brand values and consequently, your client’s needs.

Below are a few of our selected locally owned and managed hotels.

Art Hotel Amman

This is probably the newest hotel in down town Amman and one that is certainly filling a gap in the market. Located right in the middle of all the action on King Faisal Street, it’s perfect for those clients who really want to get under the skin of Amman. The Souk, market, Roman theater are all only a few minutes’ walk away as is some of the best fast food vendors in Jordan.

The hotels were set up by two of Jordan’s finest, Ammar Khammash, the architect responsible for Wadi Feynan (see below), Wild Jordan center and countless other iconic buildings in Jordan. And Omar Zumot, the charismatic wine producing entrepreneur whose wines are winning prizes all over the world.

So even if you choose not to use this great little hotel, your clients are bound to experience the work of these two gents at some point in their tour for Jordan.

Wadi Feynan Eco Lodge

Hailed as a beacon of green eco – light in the Jordanian Wilderness, Feynan eco lodge is definitely worth a visit. It has won countless awards and plaudits from the international media and is certainly a must visit according to Discovery Circle.

Whether you want to walk in Wadi Araba, sit under a tree reading a book or learn about the Bedouin culture, Feynan is the place to be.

So with all the benefits of desert life, with soft towels and solar powered lights and water, it really cannot be missed.
