Located at the gateway to the legendary city of Petra, Mövenpick Resort Petra redefines luxury hospitality through a powerful fusion of cultural richness and environmental responsibility. Just steps from one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, this five-star sanctuary invites guests to indulge in authentic Middle Eastern elegance while actively participating in a sustainable travel experience.
A showcase of architectural harmony, the resort features intricate woodwork, natural stone, and locally inspired décor that echo Jordan’s vibrant heritage. Yet, it’s not just the aesthetic that captures attention—it’s the resort’s loyalty to protecting the natural resources that make this region extraordinary.
Recognized globally for its pioneering water conservation efforts, Mövenpick Resort Petra has emerged as a leader in sustainable tourism. With Jordan facing severe water scarcity, the resort launched a transformative initiative that replaced 90% of bathtubs with water-efficient walk-in showers. As a result, water consumption plummeted by 25% in a single year, from 45 million liters in 2019 to just 33 million liters by 2023. This bold move earned the resort the prestigious International Sustainability Award in 2025, spotlighting it as a benchmark for eco-conscious travel.
Accolades, including Green Globe Platinum Status and Green Key Certification, further affirm the resort’s dedication to sustainability, health, and guest safety. Every initiative, from ISO-certified food practices to robust safety standards, reflects a holistic approach to responsible hospitality.
But Mövenpick’s impact goes beyond its walls. With strong support from guests, staff, and its parent company, Accor, the Petra resort has become a case study in how tourism can uplift communities and protect the planet, even amidst economic and geopolitical challenges.
Looking forward, Mövenpick Resort Petra is expanding its green initiatives and engaging travelers in meaningful ways to reduce their environmental impact. Through innovation, resilience, and a deep respect for place, the resort continues to set new standards in hospitality.
