Petra Apartments

The hotel is located on a mountain with a wide view. It is 2.8km away from the ancient city of Petra. The service manager is warm and thoughtful. The room is large and well-equipped. The restaurant on the second floor of the hotel is next to the swimming pool. We ordered lamb and chicken for dinner, both of which were delicious. The average price is about 30 dirhams.

The hotel sit atop a hill overlooking the desert hills - a wonderful view, about a 10-min. drive from the Petra visitor center. All the staff we met, from the security guards, to the bellman, the front desk, the restaurant - were just SUPERB. All of them. The lobby is inviting and warm, the restaurant is spacious and with lots of sunshine. Dinner buffet had a very nice variety and decent quality, yet overpriced. Breakfast had a wonderful variety with good quality. The room was very clean, and looked like it was built last year - very well maintained. Although the building looks very new, overall, the hotel is overpriced a bit. Overall, an excellent choice for Petra.

Beautiful interior, love the ambiance of lobby lounge and Al Iwan restaurant, food is delicious! Excellent location, just opposite Petra Visitor Centre, ATM can be found next to the Centre and only charge a small fee compared to ATM at airport. Unfortunately, not every superior room comes with a balcony therefore i don’t see what’s the difference compared to classic category. And AC/heater in room smell like kitchen, not sure because our room was just above the back kitchen. After all, it’s a mixed feeling about the hotel.

This place is sort of a boutique hotel opened by locals and not one of the big chain hotels and it’s location (point 1) is slightly further away from the city centre and it’s located on the hillside and there is no way you can walk there, you definitely need a car to reach this place from Petra Visitor Center ( hence please take a cab ) but it was fine for us as we drove. The price we paid was somewhat expensive ( due to its peak season) but all the hotels nearby were on the high side. Rooms are exceptionally clean and it even smell of freshly laundered sheets, good ventilation and breakfast was decent. We had dinner here as well 20JOD for the buffet dinner per person and it was great on the weekend nights but on a weekday nights the menu offering is much limited. Staff are generally friendly but I was turn off by a cook named Ala’a who was attending the egg station during breakfast on 29 October - not only was he slow ( compared to the cook of the previous day - leading to long wait at the station despite less than 30 people in the breakfast place), he was also rude to guests who didn’t really speak English and even told them when they didn’t clearly place their orders- I was observing and it was really bad taste as he scowl at them and this is only coming from a cook at the eggs station - you need mind your customer service ettiquete especially to foreign guests who makes up most of your revenue. The least you can do is smile and not make your guests feel like feel bad about their language when they are ordering their eggs.

The hotel looks very nice. The hotel staff is very friendly! This hotel is located in a corner of slightly uphill, so even you stayed in the outdoor restaurant, you can get a very nice view to the Petra surrounded areas. In terms of location, it’s just 5 minutes drive to the Petra city entrance. And the value for money is very high for this hotel too. I highly highly recommend to other travellers!

The staffs are super friendly. When we left they gave us two bags full of drinks and fruits for us to consume when visiting Petra. The view of our room is exceptional! Choose this hotel when you come to Petra!

High cost performance, very convenient on the street at the gate, next to souvenir shops and restaurants The breakfast chefs and waiters are very good, the breakfast is a combination of local and Western, very rich

The price is OK, a little far from the scenic spot, overall the price is very good. The service is very good, you can deliver meals very early to meet the needs of early flights or going to the scenic spot. The boss and staff have a very good service attitude and are very sincere. The room is large, the mattress is a bit soft, the room facilities are complete, instant coffee, tea is prepared a lot, not stingy.
