We booked Farah Hotel as they advertised sightseeing trips on their website but didnt mention that these had to have a minimum number to run, so while we did have an excellent trip to Petra, the Northern Jordan trip didn't run and we had to organise this separately using the advise of the really friendly receptionist.

Don't listen to Lonely Planet...there is no Garden here...only few trees in a open dump... But price is fair and the rooms are ok The shared toilets are ok even if nobody really clean them everyday. The people at the front desk are absolutely nice! The main problem here that everybody smokes at the reception, so it is very hard... More

If you want to feel at home in your travels, stop by Farah Hotel in Amman. The welcome is warm upon meeting Na'im you feel as if you have met him before. He could be your Uncle or an old friend. The staff too is very helpful and the location is ideal. You are near the landmark Al Hussein Theatre... More

I stayed here twice on my way in and out of Amman (room 501 and 601, 14 JOD for a single occupancy with shared bathroom). Pros: very basic but clean room. Nice and helpful staff at the reception desk. Central location (Downtown Amman) -> near the Roman theatre etc. yet "quieter" as located in a small street off the main... More

We booked one night and walked out. The room was cold and very basic. Bedding consisted of worn sheets and a grubby blanket and two towels worthy only of drying a wet dog. The toilet was disgusting. If you are a backpacker bring your own sleeping bag. For 5 Dinar less we stayed at the Jordan Tower Hotel with clean... More

Stayed here one night on my way out of Jordan and it was pretty much everything I expected. I asked for a single with bathroom and ended up with three beds to myself.Rooms were basic, but clean and warm (it was winter).

The thing I liked here was the board when there`re several options you can choose from and hire a driver (who is also a giude) who will follow the itinerary written. Probably, it`s a bit more expensive that you organize it by yourself somewhere else, but it`s quite convinient. As example, it was the sheet of paper like on the... More

I would rate it more like 7 out of 10. I stayed here for one night in the mixed dormitory and I can't complain much. Although the space of the dormitory is small, it is clean. And so are the halls and the common area - which is great for meeting other travelers. It is a well-maintained hostel. Only downside... More
