Staff are very friendly, facilities are great, and guests often chat and make friends in the lobby. Definitely recommend it for tourists looking for a place to stay in Amman!

Shuyu, United States of America

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!

Martin, Canada

Fantastic place to start your adventure in Jordan. I stayed here twice, at the start and end of my trip. Good location with restaurants, ATM, supermarked, other boutiques only minutes away. The breakfast buffee was so good! Lots to choose from. Slow wifi and only works in the lobby. Great Clean room with comfortable bed, also has a fan and you Window to open for fresh air. Reseptionist/staff is helpful and Kind. Really great place and I would stay again. Recommand

“Very Good Hotel to stay in Amman: good price, good service, good location”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉I guess the furniture of the bedroom was a bit old style but it did not bother me at all. I had a view on a wall - it did not bother me since it was quiet then and only stayed there 1 night. One slight note for the breakfast: orange juice made with powder & water (also a common one in Jordan). No private parking: but not a big deal since it is secure.
눇Dear All, I arrived at the hotel around 8pm. I was welcomed warmly by Ali who kindly helped me to bring in my luggages. Indeed, to access the hotel there are few stairs. There were an elevator but not working. The room was big/ full of space, new bathroom, very very very very clean, mattress comfortable. The hotel is very close to the main street with all shops and restaurants. You may need to walk 20 mn to access the Theatre (which is ok), and may want to take a cab (1 JD) to go to the Citadelle. I felt secure and I was by myself walking back at 2am in the morning. Ali was very helpful and provided me with a map of the hotel. The breakfast is the usual Jordan one : jam, jordan bread, cheese, vegetables, water, tea, boiled egg, and an extra : muffins ;-). Since, I was planning to leave before breakfast time, I was offered to get a breakfast box ready to go ! The hotel is really good and very good value for the price. I could see that it has been nicely renovated recently. To me it is more a 2 star hotel than a 1 star. To park the car, you can leave it in front of the hotel, in the street. I had a spot in front of the hotel camera ;-).

눉Parking during the day was a bit hard to find but that is manageable given the proximity of the hotel to the central areas of Amman.
눇1.Centrally located and easily accessible. Ample parking space can be found in the nights and also has a security cam to cover the space in front of the hotel. 2. One of the best hosts we have ever met. Apart from being professional in their job Tarik, Constantina and Abu were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. They were always at hand to attend to our queries and needs. 3. The sit out in the back end of the hotel was a surprise. Quite and airy, this was a perfect spot for an evening tea and get together. 4. Breakfast was excellent with a pretty good spread of items. 5. Rooms were spacious with good lighting. Corridors were clean and well maintained and the common area is well stacked with books and games.
