Azraq Lodge

It was a nice hotel, nice rooms with a balcony, it's a shame that you didn't have a nicer view, but it was OK in any case. The beds were nice and comfortable, the bathroom OK, so there was nothing to complain about. WiFi worked well. Also breakfast was good. We haven't eaten today at the hotel but in town, unfortunately I can't remember the name of it so I can't review there, just mention that it was a nice place on the right when you came to the intersection there on the way from the hotel.

I gave it a 4 star because the kids had great fun playing together at the lodge grounds and some huge rocks around. Otherwise, the overall experience and the food was average. We expected something more Chechen but had just ordinary Jordanian food. Mutabal (baba ganoush), hummus, pita bread, salads, rice and chicken. And some simple cake. It looked like we were the only guests and the food was prepared for our group only. A friend found and booked this place for us to have a lunch. It was served as a buffet. The food did look fresh I have to say. The quantity more than sufficient. We paid 9JOD per person including the kids. I think it’s 14JOD per adult normally but we got the discount as there were more kids than adults. Can’t compare it to any other place in this area as this is the only one we’ve been to. It looks more like a canteen than a restaurant. There is a big terrace. The kids have eaten inside and we/adults sat outside. It was just ok. Nobody had a bad tummy after the lunch so it proves that the food was fresh. The place used to be British army hospital in 40’s. As you enter the reception, you can see some old photos that are actually nice and a few other remains from those times.
