Situated in Wadi Musa, 2.2 km from Petra, Marvel Hostel features accommodation with a garden, free private parking and a terrace. The property is set 2.8 km from Al Khazneh The Treasury, 7.8 km from Petra Church and 7.9 km from High Place of Sacrifice. The air-conditioned rooms provide a mountain view and come with a wardrobe and free WiFi. Marvel Hostel is outstanding. The owner was incredibly friendly and constantly ensured I was comfortable. I was the only guest at the hotel, yet he still came to cook breakfast for me. The room was spotless and cozy. If you're reading this and considering a trip to Jordan, just go. There are no tourists in Petra right now, and you'll likely never see this wonder of the world this empty again in your lifetime.

Plaza View Hostel has a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Aţ Ţayyibah. The property is around 8.6 km from Al Khazneh The Treasury, 9.2 km from Petra and 15 km from Petra Church. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi. The family that runs the place will make you feel at home. They care dearly about their guests and will go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. If you stay here, know that the dinners and breakfasts are cooked by the mom of the family, and she's an exceptional cook. What's more, most of the food is grown in their garden downstairs. On our last night we had a lengthy conversation with the eldest son of the family, about jordanian culture and traditions, which was extremely interesting. The rooms are great and spacious, with comfortable beds, have a mini fridge and the hostel is 12 minutes drive trough a gorgeous road. Last but not least, as the name says the place has a breathtaking view over the mountains that surround Petra. If you have dinner here you'll enjoy a beautiful view of the sunset behind the mountains.

Boasting room service, this property also provides guests with a children's playground. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property. We booked a Family Room as a couple. The room is amazing - very clean, very modern, own bathroom. Free parking next to it, close to Petra by foot. The host is unmatched by his kindness! He loves to get in touch with his customers and exchange about cultural differences alongside very good tea - he also likes to invite people to his family’s wedding, sadly there wasn’t one around the time we stayed :( For extra payment he prepares breakfast, lunch or dinner - we had an amazing breakfast at 6 a.m. (time can be discussed with him), a perfect start for our long journey through Petra! It was a pleasure staying at your place my friend! Best regards Sandro 🇦🇹

The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff really make you feel at home. The reception was always attentive, friendly, and ready to help with anything I needed. A special mention goes to Twaissi, who went above and beyond during my stay — always caring, listening, and making sure everything was perfect. He truly made the experience even better.

The rooms in the hostel are fitted with a kettle. Indiana Jones Home Stay provides some rooms that have city views, and the rooms include a shared bathroom with a bidet. All rooms will provide guests with an oven. Staying with Firas was truly the highlight of our trip—he is, without a doubt, the most generous, hospitable, and kind-hearted host we’ve ever encountered. He didn’t just open his home to us; he opened his heart, making us feel like family from the moment we arrived. Thanks to Firas, our time in Jordan was unforgettable. While there may be many places to stay, you won’t find another host like him. I wholeheartedly recommend Firas to anyone visiting—he is one of a kind.
