Accommodation The Red Sea Hotel behind the Ali Baba restaurant probably gives you the best value for money in Aqaba. Rooms are clean and staff is friendly. They charge 40 JD, but we bargained till 32 JD for a big suite with AC, TV, fridge, and the room was very clean. Hotel Sheiki charges 28 JD for a big room with balcony and nice view, AC, fridge, TV and bathroom. I stayed at the Nairoukh Hotel, which is a real good alternative to the Red Sea Hotel.
Staff is very helpful and friendly.
It's all done up new. Breakfast between 7.00 and 10.00 a.m. The basic is bread, butter, cheese, jam, coffee or tea, but you can also have any kind of egg with it. The cook is giving a great show. If you want to spend a bit more, go to the Syria Palace Restaurant .
