This very nice hotel is locate in Wadi Mousa, about 4 km to Petra. Just few meters from the entrance of the hotel there is the Fountain of Moses where he found water!!! You can see a nice panorama on Wadi Mousa from the hotel. Bedrooms are very nice and clean with all the conforts of a 4 stars hotel like safety box, hair drier, mini bar...
You can taste good local food and also international ones.
A nice place where you can relax after the visit of Petra!! Leave a Comment

The Petra Moon Hotel is a small two star level, family hotel, comfortable and unpretentious and friendly.
If you are staying for more than one night they will give a discount.
The great advantage of this hotel is that it is in comfortable walking distance from the entrance to Petra. Most of the other hotels nearby are much more expensive.

Araba Hotel is a friendly and cheap hotel high up in Wadi Mousa. The view is fantastic. Breakfast is served on the balkony (at least in summertime) and dinner, togheter with all other guests at the hotel, is served on the roof. It's very nice to sit on the roof having a coffee or tea watching the sunset over the mountains after a long day of walking in Petra.
I can't remember what I paid for a room but whene I checked out I paid 24 JD for three nights, two dinners and two bottles of water.
At Araba they can help you organise with a reliable guide in Wadi Rum (desert trip by jeep or camel). Leave a Comment Theme: HotelPrice: less than US$20 » Currency ConverterPhone: 962 795 688853Website: E-mail: Dana_Tower2@hotmail.com

Had a nice terrace with a view onto Wadi Musa and the entrance to Petra. Buffet dinner at 7:00pm. Bed in dorm for 2JD. Leave a Comment Theme: HotelPrice: less than US$20 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensiveDirections: If taking a bus to Wadi Musa, it will drop you off at the round-a-bout, from there take the road leading to your right and turn onto the first street(no name) going right, about 60m or 80m up the road. It is at the end of the street.

Initially I didn’t plan to stay here but didn’t get much choice when I realized the other hotel didn’t accept my credit card and I was not able to withdraw any cash from the bank machine with my regular card (ouch!).
At the end, it was not such a bad deal, the price of the room was 18JD, down to 15JD because I was staying 3 nights.
For that price, no extra comfort than what is strictly needed. The bed is quite hard and the shower quite basic! However it was clean and by contrast to the outside pretty well decorated inside.
The breakfast is included as well but nothing fancy, not really high gastronomy here. The good point is that if you have to skip it, no big deal, you don’t miss too much!!
The staff was really friendly as well. They can prepare a lunch box if you ask for it (3JD) and apparently trips to Wadi Rum can be organized from the reception…
A huge advantage: it is located only 200meters from the Visitor’s Center!! Leave a Comment Theme: HotelPrice: less than US$20 » Currency ConverterComparison: less expensive than averagePhone: 079-574-27-42Website: petramoonhotel@yahoo.com

Unfortunately I didnt take any photos inside this hotel - the interior was quite okay really but barely would truly make it to the 3 star that it reckons it is - and not at all worth 50 dinar a night to stay for a single room - we stayed here 50 dinar for 2 which is not so bad but theres just not a long going for it.
Quite a number of the group complained that they didnt get hot water for showers after a certain time at night - I had no problems when I showered prior to 9pm but the water from the shower did flood the floor of the bathroom.
when I got home late in the early hours of the morning did they have a spare key for the room or a master key? no - my room mate had to be woken to let me in.
Breakfast was not particularly good - the coffee didnt taste like coffee!, the bread was stale, half the stuff offered ran out without being replenished until we had to leave, boiled eggs didnt come out until about half an hour after our group had sat down to have breakfast and just prior to having to leave.
The whole group had been told by the tour guide that breakfast was at 615 am - everyone was up as instructed - with not a single staff member and not even anyone working at the reception desk, seen until 7am!!, so a bit of an unhappy tour group. Leave a Comment

Though breakfast was basic - and not all floors are renovated ready for use at the 3 or 4 star level that the hotel advertises at - the rooms are clean, very comfortable and at a really good standard.
Good gift shop with an interesting range of souvenirs and items for sale - I was able to choose a selection of postcards I was happy with for only 6 postcards for 1 dinar - stamps also for sale - with a helpful guy working there.
Internet available in a side room in the lobby. Still regret not taking my laptop with me to Jordan - wifi was pretty much everywhere!
A hammam with sauna and massage was available for 20 dinar.
24 hour professional reception with security. Leave a Comment

The Ammarin tribe are further to the north and thus further from Petra. Few men from among them work in Petra, and they are on the whole much less prosperous than the Bdool in the Bedouin village close to Petra. They do run a tourist camp in Baida, and would like to see it used by more people. At the moment, some guides bring tourists out there for an evening, and very occasionally a group hiking in the area will sleep there, but this is all. You can see more details and photos of this camp at
As traditional as possible.
It is a little way from Petra, but most people who have cars reckon that it is worth it, at least for one night. Leave a Comment

I stayed at this hotel in August 2004. The hotel is absolutely beautiful. It is three star hotel and wonderfully located at the heart of the city. The room was lovely, clean and spacious. The staffs are very friendly and helpful. They provided us with a map of Petra and gave us good information on things to do. The air conditioning was very good. The breakfasts were very good with lots of variety. You could eat inside or in the garden. The hotel is minutes walk from the shopping area and the entrance to the ancient city of Petra.
All the comforts that one can wish, swimming pool, sauna, Turkish bath, excellent food, very good service.
