The property is next to a few government entities, so security is great. It is also not too far from some shopping areas. My room had a balcony. It was nice to get fresh air, but it can be noisy during the day and night.

NOT A FIVE STAR HOTEL

This is NOT a five star hotel. don’t get fooled by the five stars. It’s not worth more than three stores. Rooms are kind of motel 6 on the road style. Staff were very helpful and friendly but rooms are so old and broken.

The property needs a desperate need for renovation. Bathroom is old, everything. The A/C thermostat needs to go, seems to be as old as the building. Breakfast was cold specially the eggs. We arrived at 0610.

The property offers good value, a grand nice hotel in the heart of city, some of the rooms are a bit dated with flooring and bathrooms being old yet clean, an old electric kettle and the hair dryer in the bathroom is quite old and hardly functioning. The lobby is very nice and breakfast buffet is good,staff are friendly and happy to help.

Advertised free airport shuttle but this did not exist - you can book a hotel taxi for £45. A normal taxi or Uber is about £20 or a bus from the bus station (a short taxi journey away) is £2.

Smoking is allowed in the corridors and bars, so even if you are not a smoker your room smells of smoke, which is a shock to British travellers who are used to smoke-free environments. The rooms are a little dated and shabby but the swimming pool and roof top bar is nice - though this was pay-to-enter on some nights we stayed there. Breakfast was nice.

30 minute walk to Amman town centre or a £3 taxi ride - hotel taxi charged us £25.

I love the rooftop pool which was the main reason I booked this hotel. It is clean and has a beautiful view over the city. However, it closes at 6pm.

A 3 star shadow of a former 5 star diamond...

Really good customer service experience at check-in from the young lady who checked me in and the bed offered a great sleep.

The hotel however shows its age and the carpet is well worn in the rooms along with very tired furniture.

This hotel would have been a shiny jewel in the crown decades ago and it's a shame that it now is but a mere shadow of a former glorious self.

Also even on the non-smoking floors, guests would be smoking so the smell floats in the corridors and into the room.

To much over rated it should be 3 stars

Food was really bad I complained then after 30 minutes they come to pick up food to show it to them they offered only to heat it
When I said no I don't want it
They took it and I was charged for it $50
And the guy said I have to charge you
Any way
Poor decision

Not worth the money

I stayed one night in this hotel in Dec. The only thing that is worth of the price is probably the location, which is in the center of Amman city. However, Amman is not a big city therefore being close to the center would not mean too much.

The facilities of the hotel is far away from a claimed 5star hotel. The carpets were worn and dirty, and the bathroom looked like one that had been abandoned for months.

The breakfast is included in the price but really not too much to eat, to be honest.

I will not recommend any friend to stay in the hotel and rather, I would recommend people AVOID this hotel if they travel to Amman.

not worth the price

Was probably a great hotel 20-30 years ago. Since then, it seems nothing has been done (except for the gym/spa area). Shower with little pressure, dripping the whole day and night, bathroom in need of repair, refurbishment.
Although a non-smoking room, you could still smell the smoke since in Jordan it seems that almost all men smoke and smoking is permitted almost everywhere.
The room was just not worth the price.

a dormant shining star

Had the opportunity to stay at this 5-star hotel in Amman, as my other choices were already full. Regency have a the famous Trader Vic's restaurant in the basement which have great drinks and good food. Hotel staff is friendly as always in Jordan (except occasional lack of English which is standard). The breakfast buffe ok. The room design are spacious and carries a old style design. However, the rooms are very worn and they really need to do a complete makeover of them! The gym on the top is great with nice view and good machines. With that said, I'll never get back to this dormant 5-star hotel, due to the bad quality of the rooms it's more of a 2-3 star.

A positive cretique.

First night I was given a room facing aft. I looked down i saw a distinked lake with green water and bad smell. I asked to be moved to a front facing room, but I was gviven a room facing south and smell smooky. Booth rooms too small for two adults and two childrens. The nigntly rate for the additional guest was too high.

The hotel was nice, they have finished up grading the rooms to a good standard and upgraded the lobby area. The only thing left that is still being done is the fitness centre and the pool so you wont be able to use these facilities within the next thee months.
Overall, Staff are friendly and food is to a good standard
