The best accommodations Petra

This 3-star is surprisingly cheap, while it offers great comfort and is very close to the site entrance. A super plan. Spacious marble hall, restaurant in the restaurant, very welcoming and very welcoming. It has a spa with sauna, massage, Turkish/steam bath, outdoor swimming pool. 24 hour reception, wi-fi and free parking.

This is the best deal in Petra for small budgets. This hotel has been refurbished and has beautiful, well-equipped and well-decorated rooms that are very comfortable. Some of them have a view on the mountains, but they are a bit more expensive. The wonderful lounge-dining room arranged like a Bedouin tent with its carpets and benches is just great. The occupants of the hotel take pleasure to meet there, in particular at the sunset which embraces the mountains, right in front of your eyes. The breakfast, very complete, is also a delight.

As is often the case in Jordan, this Swiss Mövenpick hotel has one of the best locations in the city. It is located right in front of the entrance to the Visitors' Centre and the Archaeological Museum. Don't let the austere and somewhat banal facade impress you, behind it lies everything a 5-star hotel has to offer: beautiful rooms, a swimming pool, a hammam and spa, beautiful lounges, shops, restaurants and bars and even an ice cream parlour. Don't miss the view from the rooftop terrace.

Its pink sandstone facade is a bit different from the neighbouring hotels, all built in blond stone, but the hotel is easy to spot. The address is correct for the price, especially since it is located only 200 meters from the entrance of the Petra site. Nevertheless, we regret that the rooms are so badly isolated from the street noise. As the hotel offers different categories, we advise you to ask for a room on the back, more quiet. You have the possibility to order a picnic to take away on the site.

What was a good deal has become a bad one, with prices skyrocketing. It's a shame, because this hotel offers classic, comfortable rooms, some with mountain views. The rooms are relatively modern, although the decor is starting to look a little dated. The bathrooms are very dark with brown tiles, but are equipped with bidets. The real plus is the rooftop swimming pool, open in fine weather, for relaxing after a long day exploring Petra. Free parking.

Don't be fooled by the name of this hotel, which is not at the gates of Petra, but right in the centre of Wadi Musa, a few steps from the Shaheed roundabout and its entertainment. On the other hand, this small address is a godsend for the simple, clean and pleasant rooms it offers. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms and heating. The staff is also very friendly. It could do with a little freshening up in places, but at this price what more could you ask for? A cosy roof terrace perhaps? It's there!

Behind the elegant and original facade lies a rather classic address in the category of functional and comfortable hotels. Although it doesn't feel quite like home, it nevertheless has many advantages. The first is of course that it is only a two-minute walk from the Visitor Centre. The second is the large lounge-bar and terrace on the top floor. You can enjoy the splendid views while sipping a cold draught beer. Finally, the helpful staff will be happy to assist you.

In this establishment, you live the adventure of the desert, but comfortably! The sanitary facilities are good with hot water, the beds comfortable and the blankets thick. The camp run by Attaf and Jane is ideally located in the mountains, far from the tourist buses of Wadi Musa. Under the stars and by the fire, you will be told Bedouin legends. If you have the opportunity, spend a night here rather than in Wadi Musa, the experience is worth it.

This luxurious hotel, located in the heights of Wadi Musa, offers spacious, modern and clean rooms. The real plus of the hotel is its rooftop terrace, where you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the city and the surrounding mountains. And let's not forget to mention its semi-covered swimming pool and its treatment rooms where you can get a massage. The hotel also offers a very good buffet dinner. Many services can be booked at the reception, including excursions to the Dead Sea, Wadi Rum or Aqaba.

This luxurious, slightly old-fashioned hotel is located at the foot of the Visitor Center. Its architecture is integrated into the rock and it hardly stands out. Fortunately, large signs are there to indicate this. The family rooms and suites, known as "chalets", are aligned with international standards, all air-conditioned and heated, and have bathrooms with bathtubs. The decor is outdated, as are the carpets... But you won't find a better location in Wadi Musa, and the hotel is quiet.

Sure, the price is very high, but of all the camps in Little Petra, this is the most justified. The location, on a mountainside and in an open wadi, is idyllic. Each "room" is set on a terrace with a hot tub. It includes a "bedroom" bubble with covered walls to enjoy some privacy, but with a transparent sky, a fully transparent living room with a panoramic view, a bathroom. You sleep under the starry canopy, with the added bonus of comfort. Meals are served as a buffet in a maxi-bubble.

This charming establishment with 102 rooms was built in the old 19th century village of Hayat Zaman. The extensive renovation work has preserved the original materials (walls, floors, pavements). Modern comforts have been added. The small stone houses with flat roofs have become luxurious rooms that are reached by cobbled streets (the bathrooms could do with a little freshening up). There is also a restaurant offering satisfactory food, a swimming pool, a spa and a gym.

The Petra Palace Hotel is a 3-star hotel located in Petra. It is ideally located less than 1 km from the Siq, the natural gateway to the ancient city of Petra. The hotel features simple rooms with satellite TV, minifridges and safes. Some rooms offer mountain views. Children under 6 stay free in their parents' room. The hotel offers a rustic bar and an international buffet restaurant. There's also a hammam, two outdoor pools, a landscaped garden and meeting facilities. Breakfast is included in the price and parking is available. Wi-Fi is free throughout the hotel. Guests appreciate the hotel's location, just a 5-minute walk from the city's information center. The Petra Palace Hotel offers good value for money for travelers wishing to stay close to the famous city of Petra.

About 200 meters north of the Shaheed traffic circle, this family-run hotel attracts travelers from all over the world: the comforts are basic, heating not included, but the international atmosphere is quite pleasant, especially at dinner time when everyone is bustling around the buffet served in the Bedouin tent. The establishment received a slight facelift in 2019. A good thing, as some of the rooms deserved to be renovated. The plus: the free morning and evening shuttle to and from Petra. Possibility to book excursions.

Located on the busy road from the Kings Road to the Shaheed roundabout, this hotel offers small but decent rooms. They are equipped with air-conditioning and have a bedside table and lamp. However, the bathrooms are quite cramped and the space is used to the maximum. The clientele is young and international, and the staff very friendly. A great asset is the free shuttle service to the Petra Visitor Centre. Lounge and kitchen available.

Located 200 metres from the entrance to the site, this elegant establishment is extremely well kept. The rooms are well-equipped (satellite TV, air-conditioning, fridge, hairdryer) and overlook two pleasant swimming pools and a garden at the back of the building. If you choose one on the ground floor, just open the patio door for a morning dip. The hotel also has a spa and steam room, perfect for relaxing your muscles after long hours of walking. Unless you prefer the cosy atmosphere of the bar...

This welcoming hotel offers beautiful rooms, soberly decorated and impeccably kept. The bathrooms are of a high standard and even include a bathtub, hidden behind a shower curtain. It's best to ask for a room on a higher floor, to muffle the noise of the street and enjoy beautiful views of the mountains and the setting sun. The hotel provides a free shuttle service, which drops guests off at the gates of the Petra Visitor Center. It's worth noting that the hotel's rates are very reasonable, making it a good deal.

Another correct and cheap address, dedicated staff. Rooms with bathroom, satellite TV and heating in the winter. Also a restaurant (buffet: 4 DJ).

Of course, the camp is charming, especially at night, when the small lights illuminate the cavities of the big rock against which it is leaning. The atmosphere then becomes magical. But the prices are prohibitive. Most of the tents have a shared bathroom, the cave is equipped with a double mattress placed directly on the ground and which hardly fits in the room... Neither the large Bedouin lounge decorated with hangings, carpets and cushions, nor the whirlpool bath will make you swallow the price.

This accommodation offers beds in women's or mixed dormitories, or in private rooms. All rooms have air-conditioning, and breathtaking city or mountain views. Amenities are simple, but clean and pleasant. The main reasons for staying here are its location (very close to Petra) and its good value for money. The rooftop offers a breathtaking view of the mountains, as well as a pool table. A great address for travelers on a budget.
