This remarkable one-of-a-kind ecolodge, run by the RSCN, is only accessible on foot from Dana or by 4WD from the Dead Sea Highway via the Bedouin village of Greigra.
If all the accommodation at Dana village is full, consider staying at Al-Nawatef Camp.
You won’t find a more convenient bed for the night than in this extravagantly decorated hotel, right next door to the castle.
This 17-room, no-frills hotel is run by the Sons of Dana, a village cooperative that provides medical and social programmes to around 150 local residents. It’s the oldest hotel in Dana and is in need of some refurbishment.
Jaya Tourist Camp has 15 tents in a tranquil spot on high ground opposite Shobak Castle, and has a clean shower block and Bedouin goat-hair tent for relaxing.

Near to the castle, this friendly, budget hotel is a good meeting place for younger travellers.
The friendly touch of the Towers Castle is lacking here (even though the owners are the same) but it's not bad value, with reasonable rooms. Breakfast is an additional fee.
With grand views of St George’s Church and beyond, this family-run hotel couldn’t be more central if it tried.
Has a family feel to it, and the rooms are very comfortable and the welcome is warm. The cheaper rooms are in the basement. Guests have access to the satellite TV room and a self-service kitchen that's great for making cups of tea.
