Offering a garden and mountain view, Marvel Hotel Apartments is situated in Wadi Musa, 2.2 km from Petra and 2.8 km from Al Khazneh The Treasury. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. The guest house features rooms with air conditioning, free private parking 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.

Located around 9.4 km from Petra, the hostel with free WiFi is also 15 km away from Petra Church. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, room service and currency exchange for guests. Although not located directly in the center of Wadi Musa, staying at Petra NefNaf Hostel was one of the best decisions of our trip. Just a 15-minute drive from Petra, the hostel is perfectly situated in a quiet area with stunning views - especially from the terrace, where we enjoyed the most delicious breakfast of our entire week-long road trip through Jordan. Everything was homemade, including freshly baked bread, and the same goes for the dinner - flavorful, generous portions, and truly unforgettable. The host was incredibly responsive, communicative, and always happy to accommodate our requests. We especially appreciated the flexibility of arranging dinner at a time that suited us best. His friendly and welcoming nature made us feel cared for, yet he also respected our privacy and space. The facility itself was lovely, with eco-friendly management, cozy rooms full of charm, and very comfortable beds. It was excellent value for money and exceeded our expectations in every way. Thank you for an unforgettable stay - we would gladly return!

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.
