Good value. Staff are very kind and helpful. If staying to go to Petra, it is better to stay closer to the park - more options for tourist activities after park closes.

Comfortable hotel and good size room in the downtown. Check in was easy and friendly. Outside sitting area is excellent. High pressure water. The room has have a fridge but if you need to use it ask the front desk to plug it . The breakfast has a good variety. Great local restaurants near the hotel

Good clean hotel, good value, delicious breakfast

Great. Especially at that price point. I know there are more luxurious hotels near Petra, but why bother? It was all I needed. Plus the owner/manager is there to make sure it runs well. I didn't try the restaurant at night, but the breakfast buffet filled me up with plenty of energy for the long hikes ahead.

Staff at the property were very kind, went above & beyond for us. From letting us use their personal phones to make calls when our didnt work, to giving us a ride to the store in their personal vehicle to get things without charge.

Kindest staff Ive ever encountered at any hotel anywhere!

Basic, but clean affordable hotel close to Petra which was our reason for the visit, reasonable breakfast which was included in the price. However there was no chairs in the room which was quite large neither was there a kettle or fridge, such a pity

The good: beds, bathroom, and (free) breakfast.
The not so good: (i) front desk always offered a reason not to deliver a simple special service (e.g. extra towels, extra room key) before (always) delivering the requested item. (ii) room heaters not up to task in early January. (iii) lost power to many rooms during our second night (we were a large group that booked out the hotel); power restored in about an hour. 5JD taxi fare to Petra entrance (save your walking energy for Petra).

Modern clean hotel in Petra

This hotel is about 2km from the Petra Archaeological site. The hotel has everything you would need after a hard couple of days of walking the dusty streets of the Petra site. We had a car and there were loads of street parking in front of the hotel and at Petra. Check in was quick which was appreciated as we were tired sightseeing after Petra. Hot water pressure was strong and the room and bathrooms were clean. Western and Jordanian breakfasts was provided. English was spoken at the reception. I would stay here again.

False advertisement. We specifically booked this hotel because it claims that there is a \"laundry facility'; there were cheaper & better hotels nearby. We were on the last week of a 6-week trip & planned on doing laundry there. When we asked them why they falsely claimed that, their response was a nonchalant 'what's the big dea/.' Also there is NO hotel transportation to Petra (which is about a mile away) as advertised - another false advertisement!

Enjoyable stay

Hotel was great, clean and quiet. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast which was included was very good. If you did not have a car it was too far to walk to the entrance to Petra especially after all the walking you did in Petra. But they have a free shuttle back and forth, you just give their card to the information desk at the Petra entrance and they call for you Also there is a place almost across the street to change money. The hotel takes Visa credit cards

A great place to stay.

Hard to fault this hotel. Recommended to us by a travel agent friend who lives in wadi Musa, this is a clean and comfortable place not too far from Petra - although probably a bit far to walk to it for most. The breakfast offers a good selection and we even had great views of beautiful sunsets. Comfortable bed too.

We booked at Sharah Mountains Hotel, however, when we checked in, we were told that the hotel was already full despite having a reservation and paid in full. Instead, they put us up in their \"sister\" hotel which was run down (IE: no shower curtain, no hot water, and no toiletries, to name a few...) and farther away. I was even more upset to find out that the hotel cost much less per night that Sharah Mountain!

Stayed two nights. Very Clean and comfortable. Room was dim so kind of hard to get ready in the morning but used a mirror by the window and was able to put on my makeup. Would help if bathroom had brighter light. WiFi wouldn’t work in our room from 730 at night until 530 in the morning but always strong WiFi in lobby. Hotel breakfast buffet really good and plentiful. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this hotel.

The staff/owner is such a bad host

I did 10 days touring in Jordan and didn't meet such a bad person(the owner I believe) who was at the desk when I and my husband checked in. he asked us for our marriage certificate (when we left at home in the stats) and asked inappropriate questions about both of us.

in the second day of the stay: we requested towels and they were furious how do we ask for extra towel !!!

I would never stay there again. I would keep visiting Petra though

Great hotel to explore Petra

Stayed in this hotel to explore Petra for 3 days/4 nights. The hotel has its own shuttle to get to and back from Petra. The beds are super comfy and shower very hot. The owner is friendly and always ready to help, watch out for his jokes, he can be cheeky. There are plenty of restaurants around, the hotel also has one. Food was tasty and serves were hudge!
Has a great stay.

Clean and practical hotel close to Petra.

Pro's: parking up front, pleasant and available staff, sparkling clean, relatively new, 7 min drive to Petra, great meal upon request (10 JD), really comfortable beds, 2-5 min' walk to banks/restaurants/sweets shop/general store
Con's: no fridge, encouraged us to use our car to Petra rather than the shuttle advertised by the hotel, the 3 single beds' room was slightly too small for our taste yet still very practical
Would go again without hesitation, as location, cleanliness and staff assistance are key criteria for us

Affordable and clean

This hotel is in a decent location. Not within walking of Petra Ruins, but they offer a free shuttle service both ways. It is a family run business and they take extreme pride in keeping the hotel and rooms clean. It is very affordable. Ammenties are basic, but functional. The room is comfortable. There is a complimentary breakfast offered every morning. The staff (all brothers) are very helpful. This was our 2nd stay and we'd definitely stay there again.

Average hotel with scam dinner plan

Don't go to their hotel for dinner no matter what they say. They charge 18%service fee where there is hardly any service. The food choice: you can choose from white rice to boiled chicken meat, and some apples and orange, that's all(no kidding). One cup of orange juice cost 5 JD. Total rip off. Avoid at all cost.

A snowy stay

We enjoyed everything about our stay here. As it was snowing while we were in Jordan we were not sure we could drive there on the planned day - the hotel was really flexible in trying to accommodate any changes of dates. Mahmoud is really a great owner - he is knowledgeable and friendly and goes out of his way to make sure everything is perfect for your stay. He recommended Little Petra which we had never heard of and on our final day drove with us out of Petra to get us on the right road. Beds are very comfortable. We ate in the restaurant for 2 nights and had very good food (and a lot of it). The view from the hotel lobby is lovely - looking out over the mountains.

Mid-range hotel not too far from Petra.

It's not possible to walk to Petra from this hotel, but they do offer a minibus which is a bonus.
Sadly for them as tourist numbers are currently so low, corners have to be cut ... i.e. no buffet breakfast. But the breakfast provided was more than adequate.
The staff are extremely helpful and willing to please.

Newly renovated, but some staff let it down.

I booked this hotel after reading a lot of good reviews. Sadly I was disappointed. When I first arrived the receptionist was pretty rude and unhelpful. He gave me no information about the hotel or stay e.g. breakfast times, air con etc. He said they didn't provide transport to the gate, even though it says clearly on their website they do. Luckily I argued this so they did provide for me. There was no hot water for my entire stay and his response was 'well it should work'. There was only one working socket in the room, and again he didn't seem bothered by this. The bathroom also flooded every time I had a shower. The hotel was very quiet and so he could've moved me to a different room. The next day I met the manager/owner and he was a lot friendlier and more helpful. I am guessing all the positive reviews are about him. I am sad that I had a bad experience here as it does have the potential to be a good place to stay.
