NEW WORLD-CLASS HOTEL CONVENTION CENTER OPENS IN AMMAN
Mark Timbrell, Kempinski Hotel Amman’s new general manager, gave details of the brand’s latest edition to its existing lineup of properties, saying, “The Amman market has been waiting for just such a facility, as the demand for high-quality meeting and exhibition space is steadily increasing. There is a hunger in Amman for a conference center that can meet the needs of large events, without the need to shuttle delegates to the Dead Sea. There is a healthy demand from conference organizers, wedding planners, corporations, government and NGOS that the hotel will help satisfy in the years ahead. The quality of the construction and design, the well-studied acoustics and the highest quality of in-built audiovisual are clear attractions. A whole new team of experts is being assembled to operate the venues and deliver a beautiful Kempinski performance for our guests. Such superb facilities, now available for the first time in Amman, are a positive addition to the quality brands already operating in Jordan and will for sure help in attracting more business to this spectacular destination. The hotel offers visitors a brand new conference and events center adjoining the hotel, which will be launched in the first quarter of 2019 and this ‘state of the art facility’, with over 14,000 sqm of built-up area, will be a ‘one of a kind’ venue in the capital city for large conferences, exhibitions, weddings, social events, receptions, concerts and product launches. The grand ballroom of 1,000 sqm is complemented by a 760 sqm multipurpose hall, three panoramic meeting rooms of 185 sqm and an open-air terrace of 650 sqm. Artfully connected to the existing 12 meeting rooms, the 278room hotel will be defined by its superb selection of large and small meeting spaces in the years ahead, setting it apart from the competition in Amman.”
