Lock in a great price for Sydney Hotel – rated 9.1 by recent guests!

to get started.

Airport pick up was perfect, the driver even spoke Fusha :) The room was specious and had a balcony. Rules were clearly written down so everybody could stick to them. The dining area has working tables but also chill places. A good book collection and some games as well. I overslept for breakfast and they still offered me some. The backyard is very very nice. Basically you can spend the whole day there, also wifi was working perfectly. And Tarik just makes that place complete.

Lejla, Germany

Excellent location and rooms. My room was even spontanously equipped with additional A/C. The staff is friendly and very helpful, the breakfast is good and the common area is peaceful and spacious. Wifi has some strength as well. All in all good value!

Tim, Switzerland

Staff extremely friendly. Clean dorms with ventilation. Spacious common room. Wifi works great. Within walking distance of the citadel and rainbow street.

Sydney Hotel is located in one of the best parts of Amman, super close (walking distance) to downtown, Weibdeh, and Rainbow Street. The staff is super nice and helpful, and the dorm prices are a great value. I've tried quite a few hostels in Amman, and I have to say that this one is the best, not just because of the location and price, but because of the atmosphere - I never felt uncomfortable at any time. The staff are all very normal, and the manager speaks very good English. Definitely recommend!

Mariel, United States of America

Everything was great. The breakfast is delicious, the staff is really helpful, the place is well located and the hostel is clean and nice to meet other travelers. We will come back for sure ! I highly recommend.

“Good value with a smile”

눉The rooms are not cleaned daily. The tour organised by the hotel to the Dead Sea started at a tourist shop selling overpriced cosmetics - foolishly I did not realise I was being taken for a ride. I got back to the hotel where they had the same products for sale much cheaper. Very disappointing, but an age-old tourist trap. Buyer beware!
눇The staff were very welcoming and well-informed. The location was excellent, and I really appreciated being able to organise a driver from the airport for a fair price.
