Karak Dream was one of the best places I stayed in while in Jordan. It is a 5 min walk from Kerak castle, has private parking lot and a nice restaurant with a terrace. There are a few private rooms on each floor with a shared foyer, bathroom and kitchen (if you book a shared bathroom one), it's essentially like being in a nice fully equipped apartment. As another reviewer mentioned, it has all the things often not present in accommodations at that price point - little toiletries, soap, shampoo, hand wash gel at every sink, hair dryer, nice towel included, new and functioning appliances and utensils/plates and a fridge in the kitchen. And the best part? It's all sparkling clean. And I mean even those places many people would not wipe each time they clean. The bed may be on the harder side for some, but it was perfect for me and I have to admit to looking for the tag on the bed sheets - they were so soft I was thinking I'd like to get some like that for my place! I stayed here one night on my way south to Petra and liked it so much, that I stayed for one more night to break the trip heading back north. Last but not least, the people here are really friendly and nice - as I was leaving, the manager ran after my car... to give me a cold soda for the road! The best accommodation in town,...
Read moreOn our motorcycle trip from Switzerland to Jordan and beyond, we came across this simple yet wonderful hotel in Korak. We actually planned to stay for one day, but ended up staying for three. The owner of the hotel, "Karak Dreams," gave us a very warm welcome, and check-in was straightforward. We found him very hospitable, extremely warm, and helpful throughout our stay.
Our room, as well as the shared bathroom and kitchen, were very clean. We didn't cook, but there's a cozy restaurant that also belongs to the hotel owner. The freshly prepared dishes are excellent, as are the freshly squeezed fruit juices. We also really appreciated being able to park our motorcycle directly in the hotel's secure parking lot. The hotel is within walking distance of the Crusader Castle and the old town, perfect for strolling.
Thank you for your warm hospitality. We highly recommend this place, and would love to come back when we return from...
Read moreWow where to start! The rooms were exceptional and extremely comfortable. Very very clean, they make sure you have everything you need, some rooms come with air conditioning some with fans. I didn't reserve online and was graciously allowed to look around at different rooms and pick.
Now, the greatest part of this whole experience was the friendship I formed with the owner Ahmed. To give a glimpse here's an adventure I had the first evening of my arrival. It was around 7pm, the sun was setting, we were outside talking, and I told him that I was going to walk down the hill and get a view of the castle at sunset - to which he immediatley walked around back, brought out his motorcycle, and told me to hop on. Whoo what a joyride, one of my unforgettable momemts at Kerak! Great meeting you brother hope to see...
