We booked the hotel 4 months in advance, after we arrive we are told it is closed for 2 weeks for maintenance, we never received an email from them about this. I was shocked by the lack of respect for customers who had booked and had to be turned away because of the incompetence of the hotel. In the end... More

We arrived after a long drive to be told that the hotel was closed for renovations. We had booked the hotel 4 months previous, and the hotel had been under renovation for around 2 weeks so we should have been notified and told that we would not be staying in the hotel. They arranged for us to stay in their... More

We booked the hotel in Nov 2012 to go there in Feb 2013, when we arrived the hotel was empty & being renovated & we had not been alerted. They provided alternative accommodation at a sister Hotel but I was very disappointed that we had not been contacted prior arrival.

My son and I spend 2 nights at the Golden Tulip this past week. We had a wonderful time. The rooms are very spacious with comfortable beds. There is cable tv with some English channels that we could sit down and enjoy after a really great shower; hot with super pressure. We snuggled into the robes provided and enjoyed some... More

The staff is helpful but depressed. The rooms are clean and big, but not where you want to hang out. Building qualit is poor. The food is fine except for the Nescafé at breakfast (who are all these people drinking Nescafé? Not to discriminate), but not the exceptional foreign dining adventure one hopes for (tourist buffet...whatever). In short, it is... More

We stayed in this hotel during a roundtrip in Jordan. We booked 4 star hotels and were very pleased until we arrived at this hotel. This hotel is no 4 star at all (maybe it was a long time ago ?). Staff was friendly and no complains there, but the hotel is old - not maintained so you get very... More

Right place - staff were exceptionally good and helpful and friendly but you can only do so much with an old hotel that needs lots of work or even a full refurbishment. The parrot at the door is fun !I would have stayed elsewhere (at twice the price) despite the good service and great staff attitude.
