Loved this hotel and are already planning our hotel. The jacuzzi and rain forest showers were fabulous, and obviously the gorgeous views everywhere, day and night. Our family loved the jeep tour too. 10/10 recommend!

This was just amazing, the bubbles leave you a beautiful night sky view, which is pretty much unparalleled to anything else I’ve seen. The closest thing I can compare to, is the view that a car with sunroof can afford with a night sky. Just amazing. Good breakfast and even better dinner options

Sadly I cannot recommend
Oh dear… Where to begin. I think at one time this camp was grand but it is in serious despair. The tents are torn, the towels are stained, the robes are in bits, the hot tub smells awful. We showed up with a baby and check-in was a mess. No one seemed to be in charge and no one walked us through the grounds/options etc. It was like a free for all. When they brought us to our room it was maybe 105 in the tent. We had a baby and this just isn’t safe. They didn’t turn on the ac and we had To wait another hour before we could enter. The shuttle leaves whenever and the staff cannot control it. It needs some serious management and a remodel. Sadly, I cannot recommend.

Cannot recommend highly enough- worth the extra money when compared to the other options. Completely isolated, the bubbles were spacious with great views and the hot tub was awesome! Food options were good. Only complaint was I received no communication from property regarding how to get there until after my stay was already completed. I ultimately found it on their website, but this should have been made clear upfront as you can’t just drive there.

This was such a cool stay! The Bubble hotels were beautiful. The staff was nice and the food was great! I saw reviews complaining about the hot water and WiFi. We were told upon check in that the WiFi only works well in the reception/lobby/ dining area- although I still had some service in my bubble. Also, I had no issues with the hot water! Yes, there is cold air in certain parts of the bubble but you would expect that seeing that you are in a bubble! The heat was sufficient and I was very warm in during the winter months. Book this for a great experience!

Booked a one night stay at this hotel and it is NOT CHEAP to stay here. When checking in, they wanted to give me a twin bedroom when I specifically booked a king bedroom via Expedia. They ended up giving me a king bedroom but the bubble room they gave me was dirty and a lot of the bubble were taped up. I wanted to take some nice photos but couldn’t even do that because of how ugly it looks. I didn’t think it was a big deal at first but when I walked around the property, the other bubble rooms were much cleaner and didn’t have any areas taped up like mine. There goes that experience for staying here. Left with dirty bubble pictures and videos of an taped up bubble. Now the day of checking out - they told us to be at the reception for the 12p shuttle bus to bring us back to their parking lot. We got there at 11:50a, checked out and waited. They told us to come outside just for us to find out they couldn’t fit us in their Jeep because they also had other people in there already. No communication with the staff about what is happening, but somehow they let other people got in the jeep before us and left us waiting outside in the cold. Finally, they told us that they got us another car and it’s on its way. 20 min has passed, car still didn’t come. The driver who drove the first group of people came back and was shocked to still see us waiting outside in the cold. Thank god he decided to drive us. Will never spend my money here or recommend any of my friends to stay here.

We stayed there for one night. It was a real astonishing experience to sleep in a bubble under the Moonlight and under the stars. It's first time in my life to do something like that. The bubble was clean and well organized, the staff were very friendly, the dinner was great and much better than the breakfast. I will absolutely stay there again.

Instagram trap, poor execution
It's an instgram trap. The idea is great, the execution is terrible. The room conditions is junk, the bubble had patches and was foggy, the air conditioning/heating barely worked. The hot tub was barely warm enough. The food was fine.

The Bubble Luxotel was the perfect accommodation for the desert if you are not up for staying in a Bedouin camp. Pros: The rooms were quite nice as far as vinyl bubbles go (or so I imagine), the beds were legit, shower did the trick, and laying on the hammock outside the bubble to gaze up at the stars was quite nice. Cons: buffet dinner and breakfast were both really underwhelming, and there’s a decent amount of light pollution around or from the bubble hotel itself, so you don’t get the darkest of skies for stargazing (not really sure if you get that from camps within Wadi Rum either). We really debated between staying in a bubble hotel vs with a Bedouin camp. In the end, as this was the last night of our trip before lengthy travel home, we decided a good bed and a shower were the most important things to us in choosing the night’s accommodation. In sum, if you - like us - are debating between bubble or camp, I’d suggest bubble if your top priority is a comfort. If great local food and stumbling out of your tent into a wilderness of stars is more important to you, I’d lean toward trying a camp (we didn’t go with this option can’t speak authoritatively on this).

Sleeping under the stars out of the elements
Where else can you sleep under the stars but still be out of the elements. The property was amazing, the staff was bend over backwards helpful and the food was delicious. The hotels nighttime stargazing was a highlight of our stay. The additional tour options were also fun and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again

Such an amazing experience. We had a great time in the desert. The staff are very helpful and always ready to help. The breakfast and dinner buffets were delicious. We used the hot tub at night to look at shooting stars. I really recommend booking the star gazing activity and the 4x4 desert tour.

This is a niche property. Pictures make it seem much nicer than it actually is. Smoking was allowed in the common indoor area which was unpleasant. I don’t regret staying here, but I will likely never come back.

It is more than I ever wanted, a peaceful zen place, best thing is that they turn off all the lights at night so I was able to stargaze, when it got colder I was still able to stargaze from the bed , this camp is to die for The food was amazing the staff are amazing I recommend it to anyone who wants to be in a peaceful place and wants to meditate to feel the serenity of wadi rum truly is Thank you for a wonderful stay 🙏🙏🙏🙏
