Sehr einfsches Hotel

Hotel war bis auf drei andere Gäste leer , fürs magere Frühstück mussten wir auf die Suche nach Personal gehen. Die Dusche im Zimmer war so stark verkalkt, dass kein Wasser mehr aus der Brause kam.

I thought i had beepaymn charged for this room online and was surprised to be asked for payment when i was getting the taxi for the airport. I paid the for the room believing that i had paid twice. Never was i allowed to checkin to a hotel before resolving payment .

The helpfulness of Omar and staff out weight any problems Jordon's tourist industry is having. Perfect location. The country is as fascinating as the people.

Very comfortable, nice location but...

Very friendly and welcoming staff. They were helpful to organize our trip. Our room was very comfortable. The location was perfect. However, we could not sleep well because there were parties on the rooftop restaurant on both nights we were there. When we checked out, they did not want to take our credit card, so we had to pay cash. At first, they overcharged us, so we had to show them the price we booked for on Expedia in order to pay the right amount.

Outstanding friendly

A very well located and friendly 3 stars hotel and good value for the money. Staff and management are helpful and eager to share practical information. Rooms are not huge but comfortable. Breakfast is simple but fresh. We were allowed to stay in our room until the night at no extra charge and the manager organized a taxi to the airport for a very reasonable price (JD 15, between JD12 and 15 it is what you get bargaining on the street). This hotel lies close to everything important in Madaba and was for us the best option to spend our last night in Jordan without going back to Amman. Recommendable.

Make sure no loud parties

The room was modern, clean and the bed was very comfortable. The blackout curtains were a plus and The staff was very friendly. Now the cons... Our room was next to the smoking balcony so the smoke flowed into our room when the door opened. Also, there was a very, very, very Loud party that took place on the top floor that echoed through the whole neighborhood much less our room. The loud music was more than any guest should have to deal with especially after a long day of touring. Our room was facing the narrow street so the music echoed which made the situation worse. I asked to switch to an an interior room but the hotel was fully booked so we had to just listen and hope to get some rest befor our next day of touring.

Hotel very handy to Israel border

My wife and I recently had 2 visits to this hotel before and after our trip to Israel. If you want a location out of Amman this hotel in Madaba is a good choice. It is not far from the airport and is also close to the Hussein Bridge for crossing in to Israel. The taxi drivers that the Hotel arranged for us were very good - cheaper going to the airport than using an airport taxi from the airport to the Hotel. This is a relatively small hotel which is family owned. Omar and his staff are all very professional and are available 24 hours.

最近できた新しいホテルです

教会からすこし南に行ったところにあります。 客室は２階3階で、四階で朝食が取れます。 オーナーが恐らくクリスチャンで、部屋も整っていて快適に過ごせました。 ホットシャワー、Wi-Fiも無料で使え、小さいながらもバルコニーもあります。

Madaba trip

It was nice stay. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Food is fine and the restaurant has panoramic view. It is close to down town. It will be good if they can provide invoice in clear format.

St John's is a gem

Great location near all the churches and mosaics. Also great neighborhood for shopping. Fantastic terrace with views of the mosque and the steeple of St.John and a full bar. Room had a small balcony overlooking the street. The bed had a memory foam mattress that was VERY comfortable. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

my trip to Jordan

Management was very assisting in my visit there , All aspects of the hotel were up to par and the food from the sky top restaurant was superb as well as the view of the surrounding city of Madaba . The pricing of the food and room was reasonable as well. I recommend this hotel to all travelers going to Amman Jordan.

horrible hotel

This is the worst hotel i have ever seen, totally not comfortable, the pictures on the website are totally different, i booked 2 nights but i stayed only one night i couldn't stay the second night, the hotel is located in no where, the breakfast is horrible, they tried to charge me full payment instead of one night+ penalty. the only thing good is the new receptionist guy i don't remember his name.

Excellent Hotel

4 star quality service. I was greeted by a very welcoming and helpful staff. Breakfast of local specialties was good. All visitors are given the option to hire a guide or the hotel provides options of knowledgeable guides and drivers. I also had time to enjoy the roof top restaurant's ambiance, food, and live DJ. This is a wonderful eco-friendly facility which I highly recommend.
