Location of the hotel is great for Downtown - a hike up to Rainbow Street but easy back down. Decent breakfast and lovely rooftop bar for a last drink before bed. Rooms were clean and comfortable and very good value.

Cozy boutique hotel in central location

This cozy boutique hotel is conveniently located in downtown Amman. It’s on a slight slope (just a few meters) on a quieter street but very close to the night markets and downtown within a short walk. Rainbow Street is a short walk away too. It feels safe to walk around. If you drive, there seems to be a few (very limited) street parking reserved in front of the hotel (but unsure if it belongs to the hotel or not since I didn’t park near the hotel). The room is spacious and stylist. Beds are comfy and room is clean. Recommend for your Amman stay and easy to checkout the nearby sightseeing spots either by walk or taxis.
