About City Tower Hotel
Where Jordanian hospitality meets modern luxury on the shores of the Red Sea
Our Story
City Tower Hotel was born from a simple yet ambitious vision: to create a hospitality experience in Aqaba that honors the deep-rooted traditions of Jordanian warmth while embracing the expectations of today's global traveler. Located on King Hussein Street in the heart of Aqaba, our hotel has grown from a local landmark into a destination that welcomes guests from every corner of the world.
From the very beginning, we understood that a great hotel is more than just a place to sleep. It is a home away from home — a place where travelers feel genuinely welcomed, where every detail is considered, and where memories are made. This philosophy has guided every decision we have made, from the design of our rooms to the training of our staff to the sourcing of ingredients for our restaurant.
Over the years, we have had the privilege of hosting thousands of guests — families on vacation, couples celebrating milestones, business professionals attending conferences, and adventurers using Aqaba as a base to explore Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Red Sea's legendary coral reefs. Each guest has contributed to the story of City Tower Hotel, and we are grateful for the trust they place in us.
Our Values
Genuine Hospitality
In Jordan, hospitality is not a service — it is a way of life. We treat every guest as family, offering the same warmth and generosity that defines Jordanian culture. From the moment you arrive, you will feel the difference.
Attention to Detail
We believe excellence lives in the details. From perfectly pressed linens to a perfectly timed room service delivery, our team takes pride in getting every small thing right so your experience feels effortless.
Sustainability
As stewards of Aqaba's natural beauty, we are committed to responsible practices. We minimize waste, conserve water, source locally, and support community initiatives that protect the Red Sea ecosystem.
Community
City Tower Hotel is deeply rooted in the Aqaba community. We employ local talent, partner with local suppliers, and actively support cultural and educational programs that benefit the people of our city.
Our Team
Behind every exceptional stay at City Tower Hotel is a dedicated team of professionals who share a passion for hospitality. Our staff represents the best of Aqaba's talent — from our experienced front desk team who ensure seamless check-ins, to our skilled housekeeping staff who maintain impeccable room standards, to our talented chefs who bring the flavors of Jordan to life at Rihan Restaurant.
We invest heavily in the training and development of our team members. Every staff member undergoes comprehensive hospitality training, including guest relations, safety protocols, and cultural sensitivity. Many of our team members have been with us since the early days, and their deep knowledge of the hotel and the city is an invaluable resource for our guests. Whether you need a restaurant recommendation, help planning a day trip to Petra, or simply a friendly conversation about Jordanian culture, our team is always happy to help.
Our Commitment to Sustainability
Aqaba's greatest treasure is its natural environment — the crystal-clear waters of the Red Sea, the vibrant coral reefs, and the dramatic desert landscapes that surround the city. At City Tower Hotel, we recognize our responsibility to protect these resources for future generations. Our sustainability initiatives include:
- Energy Efficiency: We have invested in energy-efficient lighting, climate control systems, and appliances throughout the hotel, reducing our energy consumption significantly.
- Water Conservation: In a region where water is precious, we employ water-saving fixtures, a linen reuse program, and efficient irrigation for our landscaping.
- Waste Reduction: We have eliminated single-use plastics from our guest rooms, replacing them with refillable dispensers and biodegradable alternatives. Our kitchen implements a comprehensive composting and recycling program.
- Local Sourcing: Our restaurant prioritizes locally grown produce, locally caught seafood, and products from Jordanian suppliers, reducing transportation emissions while supporting the local economy.
- Coral Reef Support: We partner with local marine conservation organizations and encourage our guests to practice responsible snorkeling and diving to protect Aqaba's precious reef ecosystem.
