Hotel Russian Pilgrim Residence
Baptism Site, Jordan River, 28170 Sowayma, Jordan – Great location - show map
Beautiful church on site, access to Jordan river, interesting and entirely unique experience.
United States of AmericaThis is a lovely properly. The staff was very friendly. They were very accommodating with regard to breakfast and dinner times. Another plus - the Jordan River runs directly behind the property.
United States of AmericaIt is a wonderful place in a very special location. The time spent there have been so meaningful and spiritual. It’s located right by Jordan river and Baptism Site of Jesus Christ. Absolutely amazing experience. The place is very very clean, tastefully decorated. The breakfast and dinner were delicious, plentiful and made with love. The staff is welcoming. Lots of beautiful kitties on the territory. The manager helped us with taxi arrangements and it was really appreciated. Will definitely be back and recommend this place to anyone.
United States of AmericaA beautiful quiet tranquil location beside the Jordan River. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.
AustraliaThe Russian Residence is located within the Baptism Site, offering the rare privilege of staying very close to a place of great significance to Christians. If you happen to be the only guests you will find an environment of extraordinary quiet and solitude. It was also comfortably warm in the evening and early morning (in early November) and very hot once the sun is up - even at this time of year.
United KingdomLovely peaceful retreat. Food was excellent and surroundings beautiful with the river just 30m away.
United KingdomWe expected a different experience by staying here and were not disappointed. It is a very quiet place on the Jordan River (only 2 other people staying at the same time). We were able to swim in the river and explore round the premises. The rooms were simple but comfortable. The evening meal and breakfast were simple, fresh and delicious. We really enjoyed having the opportunity to explore the Baptism site on our own.
IndiaThank you for making our visit very special and unforgettable !!!!!!!!!!!! Will definitely come back. From the beginning to the end it just could not be any better. Amazing experience.We got a free upgrade for a super nice presidential suite. Russian Pilgrim Residence is a great combination of hospitality and high quality service. Great food .
PolandAmazing to stay at the actual baptism site in a lovely place and with ability to walk to the historic sites at our leisure
