There is a particularly charming manner of
imbuing a space with elegance that eschews ostentation; a style of modern
refinement that is both conscientious and awe-inspiring; a design ethos that is
all at once classical, worldly, and in harmony with its surroundings.

If ever a space has exemplified this ethos,
surely it is
The Ritz-Carlton, Amman Hotel & Residences. Officially opened
in May 2022, the property is a breath of fresh air for design enthusiasts,
offering perhaps the best example of how local aesthetics can be delicately
interwoven into a classically elegant space.
Overall, there are aesthetic themes that take
prominence: the beautiful contrasting of colors and hues, the intrigue
expressed through lighting, the locally inspired details at every turn, and an
architectural boldness that captivates the senses. Perhaps most notably, The Ritz-Carlton,
Amman plays with light, reflections, shimmers, and shadows in a way that is
absolutely breathtaking. This is exemplified best by the hotel’s pièce de
resistance, a magnificent, splendorous chandelier that hangs at the center of
the lobby. Crafted specifically for The Ritz-Carlton, Amman by Preciosa, the
chandelier features expertly hand-blown glass and more than 15,000 Bohemian
crystal trimmings, all carefully assembled to form a true masterpiece. This
chandelier alone makes the property worthy of a visit.
Every detail of The Ritz-Carlton, Amman has
been thoughtfully considered, and that attention to detail shines at every
turn. The hotel applies a serene, contemporary color palette, with light,
vivacious marble surfaces, dark timber finishes, and delicate touches of soft
green and blue upholstery. A sleek minimalism is paired with bold accents, like
the dramatic layering of rich fabrics, and the entire property is infused with
locally inspired patterns—hints of Arabesque that are clever, subtle, and
perfectly at ease with the general ambiance.
These local touches aren’t always obvious at
first glance, but they have the effect of suffusing the hotel and residences
alike with a harmonious sense of place: without even realizing it, guests will
continually feel that they are deeply, intrinsically connected to the Kingdom
that surrounds them, and in tune with the vibrant local culture. The
breathtaking caves of Petra, for example, are ingeniously embodied in gorgeous
vignettes, while Roman and Nabatean architectural features are given modern
reinterpretations throughout the property. The floor finishes in the guest
corridors pay homage to the wispy desert landscape, and the guestrooms
themselves feature light, airy color palettes that take inspiration from the
sand and sea.
Beyond Jordan’s dramatic natural landscapes
and rich historic landmarks, The Ritz-Carlton, Amman also blends in chic
elements of the Kingdom’s more modern evolution: nods to the county’s Art Deco
era can be seen in the property’s color palette and intricate finishing's;
contemporary Jordanian artistry is spotlighted throughout; and Amman’s growing
prominence as a fashion and style hub is given its due attention and emphasis.
As The Ritz-Carlton, Amman welcomes discerning
guests of all sorts—from business travelers to leisure tourists—there is no
doubt that design enthusiasts will be among those flocking to admire the
property’s exquisite ethos.
