Can we drink tap water at the hotel?
|
|
Standards of hygiene in Jordan are high and the main risk
to visitors is exhaustion and heat, and of course the
changing life style. Most of 4 or 5 stars hotels contain
additional purification systems. But, whatever the technique
used, it does not eliminate the slight percentage of
chlorine in the water…Thus, most people drink bottled water;
tap water is generally safe but salty and not particularly
pleasant.
