About Mövenpick Resort Petra

Mövenpick Resort Petra is a five-star hotel beside the entrance to Petra, offering wedding celebrations in its event space, rooftop garden and at Little Petra.

Mövenpick Resort Petra stands directly at the entrance to the ancient city of Petra, with the Petra Visitor Centre about 50 metres away. Natural stone, handcrafted wood and Middle Eastern fabrics set the tone indoors, and the 183 rooms and suites make it possible to house a wedding party under one roof. Welcome gatherings, family dinners and a wedding dinner can each be given their own setting over a multi-day stay.

The venue offers several places to celebrate. Al Diwan event space suits seated banquets, while the Al Ghadeer Roof Garden looks across the Petra hills and is used for sunset gatherings and private dining. For a wedding of a different character, the resort arranges private celebrations with bespoke catering at Little Petra, the Nabataean site also known as Siq al-Barid. Arrangements, permissions and guest numbers there are confirmed directly with the resort.

Between occasions, guests can use the outdoor pool, the fitness centre and Zara Spa, which includes a traditional hammam and steam facilities. The resort has seven restaurants, lounges and bars serving Middle Eastern and international dishes.
