Le Meridien

Amman


The Le Meridien is undoubtedly grand and stylish. While it primarily targets business travellers, the hotel is considerably more affordable than the competition but wins guests over with its fine rooms (many recently completely renovated) and top-class service. Like other hotels in this category, the Meridien has three restaurants plus a spa and a gym to work it all off in.
