The best accommodations Wadi Musa

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

The latest hotel built at the gates of the site offers very pleasant rooms, tastefully decorated and with the latest technology. Touch-sensitive switches, lights that are activated when the front door is opened, extra large and extra flat TVs, sitting areas, walk-in showers and bathroom products with Dead Sea mud: no doubt, nothing is missing for a more than comfortable stay. As a bonus, the restaurant located on the top floor serves very good food and solid breakfasts. At this price, it would be a shame to miss out.

This hotel opened its doors in August 2018. Past the very kitsch reception, it offers beautiful, spacious and spotless rooms (plasma TV, telephone, hairdryer, fridge, A/C, tea and coffee maker, wifi...). Some of them boast lovely views of the Petra mountains. A restaurant and café invite you to relax on the terrace. The hotel stands out from the big chains for its family atmosphere and attentive staff. It enjoys a beautiful location in the heart of the city, but in a quiet street. A recommended address at reasonable prices.

This luxury hotel of the American chain offers impeccable comfort. The rooms, with their characterful furniture and thick carpeting, are over-equipped: plasma TV, wifi, telephone, hairdryer, safe, individual air conditioning, iron... As for the services offered, you are spoilt for choice with a gym, a spa, a hammam, a sauna, a swimming pool, several restaurants and a bar. This hotel would be flawless if it wasn't so cruelly lacking in charm. Fortunately, it makes up for it with an extraordinary view.

This hostel is quite far from the site of the ancient city, as it is located on the Kings' Road at the entrance to Wadi Musa, 5 kilometers away. Fortunately, it offers free shuttles to and from the Visitor Center. The rooms are very basic but well maintained. Some have a shared bathroom, others have their own small shower and toilet and have been recently refurbished. Some rooms even have a balcony. Travellers can meet on the restaurant's terrace, which is very pleasant.

With the takeover of the Mövenpick group by French giant Accor, the hotel has been rebranded Mercure. Set in the hills of the Sabra Valley, this fortress-style hotel is just a 10-minute drive from the site of Petra. Enjoy your stay in one of the 90 recently renovated rooms and suites. The many outdoor terraces, as well as the indoor pool heated in winter, will enable you to maximize your travel experience all year round. Sumptuous Jordanian and international cuisine served in the on-site restaurants.

With 183 rooms and suites, an outdoor swimming pool, a gym, a spa and a wide range of choices for your culinary desires, the resort will surprise even the most discerning traveler with its magnificent, luxurious décor. Bedouin traditions are respected here with the Al Baraka tea room, which in Arabic means both blessing and tradition. The latter is even equipped with a fireplace for winter evenings. Don't miss the sunset from the rooftop gardens. Grandiose.
