Ramadan Lounges: What’s Hot!

August 5th, 2011

Honestly speaking, This Ramadan I’ve been invited everywhere. Here’s a comparison between the top 2 lounges this Ramadan is Amman.

30 Nights Vs. Granada Nights

30 Nights is located at the Days Inn Hotel expansion, overlooking the pool with lounges and comfortable seating, with 2 big screens, a stage and oriental music. Prices are affordable and the menu is on Facebook, with a busy schedule where daily events are taking places, such as bingo nights, karaoke, live performance by Hani Mitwasi, the FCB vs. RM football matches taking place during Ramadan and more.

Granada Nights is located at the Golden Tulip airport hotel, overlooking the pool with lounges and comfortable seating, with a big stage and great sound system with lounge/house music and live instruments, their schedule in Ramadan has live performances by local artists during Ramadan as well.

Comparison starts with:

Location: 30 Nights is right in the city, the Days Inn Hotel is located in Rabyeh; almost close to everything, While Granada Nights is a little far, it is located all the way next to the airport, driving to it from the 7th circle with the new temporary airport road takes around 40 minutes.
Winner is 30 Nights

Performances & Live acts: 30 Nights has Hani Mitwasi only in their schedule, while Granada Nights schedule is on fire with Majd Ayoub, Autostrad, Ziad Saleh and more.
Winner is Granada Nights

Service: Both places are actually decent, I’m excusing some of the delay because I went to both places on opening nights, and that can hectic for anyone. Waiters are probably confused, lost and not well-prepared.
No winner here

Opening: 30 Nights opening night was FREE of charge for everyone, food was served, juices, argeeleh and more while at Granada Nights we had to order, and it required invitations besides ending up paying for our orders.
Winner is 30 Nights

Price-wise: 30 Nights is lighter on the pocket, an Argeeleh costs around 5 JD while at Granada Nights it costs 7 JD.
Winner is 30 Nights

Atmosphere: 30 Nights is very normal compared to Granada Nights, lighting and setup was nicer at Granada, Sound System was great and the purple theme just gave it a Ramadani spirit.
Winner is Granada Nights

Internet: 30 Nights had 4 access points by Mada, pretty decent speed while Granada Nights had no access to any connection whatsoever.
Winner is 30 Nights

I’m being fair here, saying 30 Nights did better in what’s mentioned above and felt more comfortable ordering and staying there, and I hope they keep improving. However, I also loved Granada Nights lighting, stage and space and I think they can do better too.

I recommend you guys to visit both Lounges, as they are great! Visit their facebook pages and twitter accounts mentioned below.
