- The Landmark Amman is the sole home-grown premium hotel brand in Jordan.
It is committed to the continued revival and enhancement of the Jordanian economy
in light of the Covid pandemic, with a particular focus on the tourism and hospitality
sectors which have been severely impacted.
In partnership with Endeavor, the Landmark Amman, is launching 'Landmark 2.0',
an innovation hub that aims to forge value-driven long-lasting partnerships with
Jordanian startups, established companies and entrepreneurial individuals who can
disrupt and leverage the hotel’s ‘Local, Authentic, Sustainable, and Inclusive’ experience.
This in turn will have lasting positive effects on the tourism sector at large and on
job creation and innovation in this field.
Local
As the only Jordanian run five-star hotel in the Kingdom, celebrating everything ‘Jordanian’ is at the core of the Landmark’s identity. The Landmark Amman prides itself on having the most driven national talent and a dynamic leadership that believes in the country and its potential. The Landmark Amman has always believed in local partnerships and has chosen to promote local suppliers and providers. Wherever the hotel’s guests travel from, they get to enjoy the best of authentic local tastes and quality Jordanian products.
Authentic
As guests are searching for the ‘authentic’ country experience, the Landmark Amman is providing customers with world-class standards whilst maintaining genuineness and originality. The Landmark Amman team rightfully boast about having created their own brand and identity; the service offering stems from the team’s history and grounding in true Jordanian hospitality. Where others have embraced the generic, they have forged ahead towards the honest and unique, in the strong belief that this is what today’s traveler is looking for.
Sustainable
As the world realizes the importance of caring for the environment while enjoying everything it offers, the Landmark Amman is committed to reducing and offsetting its carbon footprint, to conserving valuable natural resources and to responsibly manage any waste in its quest for a sustainable future. Crucially, the Landmark Amman aims to conserve water, a precious resource in Jordan and the region, to use sustainable energy sources and to organically produce at least a proportion of the food ingredients used in the hotel’s kitchens.
Inclusive
The Landmark Amman is as equally committed to individual needs as it is to our society and has created an inclusive working environment where any member of the team can flourish and grow. Particular attention is given to gender equality, allowing every person to perform at their best and to providing a welcoming supportive environment to persons with disabilities. The hotel consciously and actively pursues the mission underpinning the United Nation’s Social Development Goals (SDGs).
