Property was modern and huge. Staff was EXCEPTIONAL !!! They met our every need and went above and beyond to make our stay phenomenal Highly recommend. Must go to the spa as well. One of the best for sure !!!
The hotel is beautiful and the views are gorgeous. The pools are all nice, and the room was magnificent. However, when we arrived for check in our room was not ready and they took two extra hours and kept us waiting. Then, they still rushed us out the next day and didn’t give us much extra time despite the fact that they got us the room late because they overbooked. The hotel itself is lovely but very disappointed in the disorganization and being rushed out.
No benefits as Gold or Vip Access. Staff very helpful. Parking is managed by valet. Dead sea access is a small portion area and some dificult to arrive. 9 pools , only usable are 5 , others are private. Butler service was good. Breakfast buffet very nice i recommend it. In our case was a family duplex, all was working good. Babilonia style the complex. Rehan restaurant was 4 from 10. They have many options. 1 to 10 y give 6.
We had an amazing stay at Kempinski and it is the best hotel to enjoy views of the Dead Sea!
Stylish rooms, great restaurants and the staff were fabulous.
Amazing hotel with super friendly staff. You have everything you need at the hotel you don’t need to go out of the hotel. The Lebanese restaurant is a must try.

Excellent service, everyone was incredibly friendly and going out of their way to help and ensure we were having a good stay | the resort itself is gorgeous with great architecture and amenities, especially the spa and outdoor heated pool | where the hotel loses is the room itself (we had the panoramic view room) as it's incredibly dated and falling apart.
Room was incredible. The spa and pools even moreso. Staff was courteous, and extremely helpful. We had a minor issue and they were so supportive to make our stay excellent. Highly recommend Kempinski if you’re staying in the Dead Sea, and especially the Spa rooms!
Great hotel. Very clean room. Can’t praise the staff enough. Very responsive and courteous staff. Great location right on the Dead Sea. Wonderful views, beautiful sunsets. Gulf carts readily available to take one around the property which is quite large. Also enjoyed the spa, felt very pampered. Overall, wonderful stay. Highly recommend.
The hotel offers a luxurious and rejuvenating retreat with stunning views, and exceptional service, making it an ideal getaway for those seeking relaxation by the Dead Sea.

I recently stayed at the Kempinski Hotel Ishtar Dead Sea and really enjoyed the beautiful setting and direct access to the Dead Sea. The mud bath was a definite highlight. However, breakfast was disappointing — the staff felt inattentive and rarely acknowledged me, which affected an otherwise great stay. Overall, a lovely hotel with room to improve on service at breakfast.
Fantastic property staff can’t do enough for you and the pools are besutful

If you want amazing infinity pools overlooking the Dead Sea this is the place. Upmarket hotel with grassy good options and direct access to the Dead Sea. Where they massage you and apply the mud. Brilliant experience
