The Sydney Hotel

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.

I booked your hotel by mistake. I did not stay there I was at the airport.

I thought it was an awesome place! They do everything to make sure you feel comfortable. I stayed in a shared room with a few other guys and it was very quiet the whole time, enough to be able to sleep.

The hotel is located in a walkable area, near Rainbow St and Prince Muhammad St with many restaurants and shops. The staff were helpful with planning trips and other advice. The rooms and common areas were clean and welcoming.

This is a one star hotel, so don’t expect luxury. However they are walking distance to the hustle and bustle. Also near the citadel, Roman theater and local market. I’d only recommend they get new towels. The current ones are worn out.

No elevator. Had to carry luggage through stairs.

Very good budget hotel. Clean and comfort. Close to city center and first circle

The staff is very kind and helpful. This is a budget hotel, so do not expect luxury, but for it what it is, the value is great. The breakfast is also pretty wonderful. And they have a cute cat. They can also arrange trips for tourists/suggest itineraries. The service in the lobby leaves nothing to be desired.

My go-to hotel when I’m in Amman; the only thing that’s ever wrong is when they’re booked up and I can’t get a room. Super-helpful staff, terrific rooms at great prices, good breakfasts, handy location.

Very good location and very comfortable.

Nothing to fault, great stay at Sydney Hotel. Location is excellent, bed very comfortable, hotel is cosy.

We had a double room with bath. It was large and comfortable. The beds were narrow but fine. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good and a deal at 4JD.

great staff and superb place

We loved this hotel/hostel and it came highly recommended! It’s a great place for backpackers and budget travelers. Was traveling with my sister; we stayed here at the beginning and end of our trip for a total of 4 nights. We loved our rooms: they were bright, roomy & immaculately clean with a balcony. We happened to be here at the end of Ramadan and watched from our balcony as everyone walked downtown at night to celebrate Eid al-Fitr. Was so very cool to watch! The beds & bedding were comfortable. The common areas were welcoming and the staff was always friendly and helpful with locations! They will also help you with Jordan trips/drivers! It’s a great location, short walk to downtown and all Amman’s sights, and right below Rainbow Street! Breakfast was superb and different every morning! The painted wall murals (a local artist, we learned) throughout hotel were beyond stunning! The hotel is one floor up from street level; if carrying your luggage up a floor is difficult just push the buzzer and they will gladly help you! (I saw an earlier reviewer complain about this; read the signs and Sydney Hotel will help you!) There are both private rooms with ensuite and shared dormitories. The staff helped to arrange an airport transfer for 20JD.
