Premium lighting solutions highlighted the aesthetic of this prestigious hotel, enhancing the guest experience and providing the quality expected by the Ritz-Carlton

For those with a taste for high-end, luxury hospitality, the Ritz-Carlton Amman is the ideal place to satisfy those cravings. Designed by Wimberly Interiors, this newly opened hotel in Jordan sets the standard in elegance, offering a unique Middle Eastern experience for both leisure and business travelers. With over 200 guest rooms, a luxurious spa, a cutting-edge fitness center and a diverse selection of dining venues, the Ritz-Carlton Amman provides guests with a luxurious experience they won't soon forget.

Adjacent to the hotel is The Residences, where Ritz-Carlton’s renowned service extends to a distinguished residential community, offering an unmatched living experience in the region. Residents enjoy the comfort of private homes while having access to exclusive amenities, including a cinema, gaming room, indoor pool, fitness center and beauty salon.

The architectural design of the two towers combines the modern elegance of cosmopolitan Amman with elements inspired by Jordan’s rich culture and design heritage, creating a striking addition to the city's skyline and offering spectacular views of Amman.

The lighting design aims to enhance the sophisticated interiors with sleek, modern luminaires. Lighting designers MBLD chose Lucent Lighting’s premium solutions for both the hotel and residences, incorporating a variety of fixtures such as downlights, inground lights, and wall lights throughout guest rooms, public spaces, and dining areas.

Guest rooms are complete with crisp white interiors, with discreet downlights subtly illuminating the walls and decadent décor for a clean overall finish. Opulent marble bathrooms are backlit with fresh white lighting for a rejuvenating experience.

Decadent dining is set with a warm glow to introduce an intimate ambience for diners overlooking the city lights. Sophisticated lighting layers the darker wooden décor and plush seating of the meeting and lounge rooms, while the bar is backlit with gold to illuminate the dazzling display of bottles.

Lucent MiniTRIM downlights enhance the elegance of The Residences, oozing luxury and opulence for residents of these premium homes. The lighting acts as a key part of the overall design, blending seamlessly into the interiors while the effect it creates can be seen. The layers of thoughtful lighting bring to life colors and textures, spotlighting patterned tiles and enriching the plush materials of the décor.

Rob Honeywill, Design Director at MBLD said:

“Lucent Lighting’s range of luminaires perfectly complemented the lighting design we created to illuminate the extravagant interior design of the hotel and Residences. Each luminaire blended seamlessly into the overall design while meeting the distinct atmosphere and requirements for each space. The premium lighting solutions perfectly matched the aesthetic of this prestigious project, enhancing the guest experience and providing the quality expected by the Ritz-Carlton.”
