We’re digital nomads in the tourism sector and went from a 5 star hotel in Amman (as we were working) to booking in to The Sydney hotel. We haven’t stayed in a place like this since backpacker days but the reviews kept saying wonderful so we thought we’d check it out. And it was instant regret! We wished we had of stayed here instead of being on 5 star for our entire trip in Amman. From the warm greetings, helpful suggestions on tours, local eateries to their delicious breakfast. This place wins hands down for those warm family vibes you need when you’re so far across the world. Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou.

Hotel Sydney - Amman, Jordan I recently stayed at Hotel Sydney in Amman and had a pleasant experience. The hotel is basic yet clean and tidy, making it a great option for budget-conscious travelers. The staff were incredibly helpful and polite, always willing to assist with any queries or requests. One of the standout features is its fantastic location — conveniently close to various shops, restaurants, and local attractions. Notably, major sites like The Citadel are nearby; however, I’d recommend taking a taxi to get there since it's situated on top of a mountain. Fortunately, taxis are affordable and readily available. Additionally, the hotel offers car hire, day tours, and airport transfer services, which adds great convenience for those looking to explore the city or travel further afield. Overall, if you're looking for a comfortable, no-frills stay in a prime location with excellent service and helpful travel options, Hotel Sydney is a solid choice. One negative the hotel is based on a junction and Jordanian drivers do like to honk there horns

I have booked a single room for my second stay and the check-in service is better than my first stay. There was no towel in my room so I had to inform the reception and the towel was not readily available. I had to leave early for my morning flight and unfortunatley, no other option for me to take the breakfast included in the room as the breakfast is only available from 7 in the morning.

As I was arriving late in the evening and I had an early pick-up for a tour, I decided to book this hostel (shared room) which I think is economical - I basically just stayed for a couple of hours to freshen up after my flight, had an hour or two nap, and left. There was a confusion around the room I booked and so I had to wait a very long time to get things sorted. Someone was already sleeping on my assigned bed, so I had to take another bed.
