This would have been a five star rating except for a few things. My first impression upon entering the hotel to check in was a poor one. The man who checked us in did not smile once. Did not welcome us. Was actually quite sarcastic when I jokingly said we normally stay at the Marriott and I hope this hotel would be able to compare. He also did not provide much information about the hotel grounds. So when it was time to explore we were completely lost. Once I arrived at the pool the staff was very friendly albeit slow in service. The staff down at the Dead Sea was wonderful. The best in fact. At dinner at the Lebanese restaurant service as exceedingly slow. We made a reservation but were told we couldn’t sit at a table with a view because they were reserved, only to see the tables never used during our meal. The staff at the belly dancing restaurant was nice, but once again they were so slow. We ordered a martini and tea. I had already finished my martini before my mother’s tea had even arrived. I also witnessed what appeared to be a manager, berating one of his staff. All in all the property is gorgeous. And certain staff members were wonderful. But, this hotel costs twice the price of the Marriott and did not deliver twice the experience. So, I would not return. I will continue to visit the Marriott when I come to Jordan.

My stay at the Kempinski Hotel Ishtar Dead Sea was truly luxurious and memorable. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with great respect. Check-in was smooth, and we were personally escorted to our room with assistance for our luggage, which made for a very welcoming start. We stayed in what I believe was a Junior Suite, which was incredibly spacious. It featured a huge king bed, a separate sitting area, and even a private outdoor seating area — perfect for relaxing in privacy. As soon as we arrived, we went straight down to the Dead Sea access area (they close it around 7 pm before it gets dark). Floating in the water and trying out the mud mask was an unforgettable experience. Afterwards, we headed to one of the main central pools. Many pools close earlier, but luckily, this one stayed open until 8 pm, giving us extra time to enjoy the evening. For dinner, we indulged in one of the largest buffet selections I’ve ever seen. The variety and quality were both excellent, and to top it off, there was a live belly dance show that added to the atmosphere. Breakfast the next morning was also buffet-style and just as smooth and satisfying. One thing to note: the resort is very large, so there’s a lot of walking and quite a few stairs. This might be challenging for some guests, but it also adds to the feeling of exploring a grand, resort-style property. Overall, Kempinski Ishtar Dead Sea offers an elegant mix of comfort, dining, and unique experiences right on the shores

A fabulous 5 star hotel but service challenges over the Jordan weekend (Friday & Saturday) when the local population descends on the Dead Sea resorts. This is a large property, spread over several levels and so quite a bit of walking or use of the hotel’s golf carts. The restaurants are excellent and the staff are very friendly. There are several pool options, all of which are worth trying out.

We had an amazing stay at the Kempinski Ishtar. The staff were all very kind and welcoming, and the concierge was especially friendly and helpful. The food was absolutely delicious, and there was great entertainment in the evenings that made the nights even better. Our room was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and everything felt well taken care of. Overall, it was well worth it and we’d be happy to return.

Disliked: Staff & service
To be fair, this is a beautiful resort. The staff is 50/50. I had a couple of issues which honestly ruined my stay. The first morning we had an issue at the buffet with one of the bus boys. I reported him to one of the guys wearing a suit whom I assumed were some type of manager. I thought he took care of the situation but even then the buss boy

Unprecedented level of luxury

Our stay at the Kempinski Ishtar Dead Sea Resort was unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the staff greeted us with genuine warmth and professionalism, making us feel at home right away. The property itself is breathtaking, with beautifully designed pools, direct access to the Dead Sea, and immaculate grounds that truly live up to the “resort” experience. The room was spacious, spotless, and elegantly furnished, with a panoramic balcony offering a direct view of the Dead Sea and incredible sunsets. The complimentary minibar was a thoughtful touch that added to the comfort. Dining was another highlight. Each meal felt carefully curated, blending local flavors with international touches. But what truly set our stay apart was the team’s exceptional hospitality. We want to give a special recognition to Samer at the front desk welcomed us with professionalism and warmth. Ivan, “the Man in Red,” at the reception. Words can’t express our gratitude to this man. His energy, optimism, and people skills are unmatched. He’s warm, fun, and a true go-getter, always going above and beyond to meet the needs of every guest as observed. Mohamed from housekeeping provided exceptional care and attention to detail. Tarawneh, Spa Wellness Manager ensured our happiness, even surprising us with a birthday cake. An’am, Lead Spa Attendant, gentle, empathetic, professional, and attentive. She walks with intention and pride yet remains the most humble in her dedication to guests. We miss U
