to get started.

The service was very good. Upon checking in with the security guard at the front gate, another individual came right out to help us park our car and bring our luggage to the front desk. He also took our luggage from the front desk to our room, which included quite a few stairs! He was very accommodating. Breakfast was also good and the room was quite and comfortable. We enjoyed our night after exploring Petra at the Cave Bar. The music was good and the atmosphere outside was pleasant.

Definitely the best location for exploring Petra - the only hotel directly next to the entrance. After a long hot walk through Petra, this was much appreciated! The slippers in the room were very plush, and they had a good buffet breakfast.

Location was great, its located right at the entrance to the park. Really easy to just wake up, grab a pass, and then go explore the ruins. Also, the rooms were really nice and comfortable.

It was an expensive stay but I was given an upgrade to a chalet which was great but very large room for one person! Staff are lovely and a drink on the terrace near the Cave Bar was an excellent location Access to Petra is right next door

They most important part of the Petra experience is to be close to the site. It is impossible to be closer than this hotel! The management and staff were incredible. The suite was great and so was the food!

“The rooms and the location were nice, but the hotel is really shady.”
- • Leisure trip

They nickel and dime you for everything. When we checked in, they demanded we pay more for taxes and fees, as well as to prepay for dinner and breakfast while I was there. So that either means that (1) the prices advertised on Booking.com are incorrect or false, or (2) I got scammed. It was after 1am when I finally arrived, so I ended up just agreeing to it so I could get into my room. Further, after prepaying for dinner I figured I'd eat my meals at the hotel restaurant, and was surprised to learn as I was leaving dinner that the price I had paid did not actually include drinks. So we had to pay extra for the juice and soda we had. Water was apparently not free either. The food here is pretty terrible anyway. I would recommend eating somewhere in the city and enjoying some of the atmosphere and culture there, in addition to a far superior meal. Finally, when my friend went to exchange currency for some Jordanian dinars (in which they already offer a morbid exchange rate), they shortchanged him. Turns out they didn't have the right denominations. Luckily my friend counted and noted he was not given enough. After explaining that he did not have enough bills, my friend stated that he can't just shortchange him, and the manager noted plainly "well I certainly can't give you more." That explains the customer service - they could not even begin to imagine going any further than necessary, and would rather cut corners when they can.
Location was great, its located right at the entrance to the park. Really easy to just wake up, grab a pass, and then go explore the ruins. Also, the rooms were really nice and comfortable.

The service was terrible at the restaurant and front desk. They overcharged me beyond the price that Booking.com quoted. They added breakfast and dinner for days that I did not want them, including a dinner on the night they knew I would be coming in late on. This is a serious issue, and amounts to a fraudulent charge which I will be disputing, and complaining to Booking.com about.

there was nothing we didn't like
reception staff were exceptionally helpful - they made fantastic recommendations that meant our visit to Petra was even better that it would have otherwise been, then lent us maps and gave great advice. We took a taxi and went into the complex by the Monastery which meant climbing down the 900 steps rather than climbing up - and in the heat that made a massive difference. They were generous with the bottled cold water. Great bar outside and evening meal was a BBQ which was very tasty, Great breakfast with amazing omelette chef. Hotel is right next to the entrance to Petra!
