Meet above Petra. Celebrate beside the pool.
Three places to gather, two hundred metres from the Rose City: a rooftop with an indoor lounge and an open terrace for meetings, a hall that seats more than three hundred, the hall and pool terrace together for weddings of four hundred and more, and the cave for a private dinner of twenty.
Three venues, one address.
Every venue comes with the hotel behind it: 130 rooms for your guests upstairs, the kitchen that feeds the cave restaurant, parking at the door, and the Petra gate a one-minute walk away for the morning after.
Meet inside. Break outside.
The roof has two halves. A covered lounge with daylight from three sides for the meeting, the presentation or the workshop. And the open terrace beside it, with the Petra mountains across the valley, for coffee breaks, lunch and the drink when the day is done. The terrace faces west, so the day ends with the sunset over the Petra mountains. Nobody has to leave the floor.
