Shaqilath Hotel

Very nice hotel, the room was small but beautifully decorated. Just consider that it's on top of a mountain in Petra. Close to the visitor center walking, like 10mins walk using some shortcuts, or a short ride in taxi. Our friend Andullah was so nice with breakfast! He saw us struggling and gave us a huge banquet...thank you so much for making us try an authentic jordanian breakfast!

The staff at this hotel bent over backwards to make our stay enjoyable. They allowed early check-in and late check-out. They were extremely helpful by ordering us dinner to be delivered from an off-site restaurant. Staff are exceptional; specifically Faizel, Remi, and Abdula. They are some of the nicest most helpful hotel staff. There was a language barrier, but not a concern for Translate app. Rooms are excellent. Functional AC, clean sheets, clean rooms, great panoramic view of the city. Wifi internet was reliable. The rooftop terrace is where we ate the included average Jordan breakfast. The hard boiled eggs were a nice daily feature. Also there is nice sunset watching from the terrace. The only bad things were lack of hot water for showers and Avery cramped bathroom sink area and shower area in unit 409. We discussed lack of hot water with Faizal on our 2nd of third days. Unfortunately the water never became hot for showers. Hotel is an uphill walk, maybe 20 minutes from bus station. The bus station is next to the Petra Museum, which is next to Petra main entrance. Taxis ask between 5-7 JD for the short ride. Some settle on 3JD. Sadly taxis do not use meters in Wadi Musa. In Amman, this taxi fare would be only 1JD. This hotel is well priced given friendly and helpful staff, and hotel amenities. We would definitely stay at this hotel again if the hot water situation could be resolved.

The staff was amazing! They asked me for my breakfast time preference and was ready for me at that time! Abdullah was also great with helping me getting a taxi to Wadi Rum!

I chose this property from reviews and how close it was to Petra Visitors Center. Since it is off-season, I may have been the only guest at the time. The staff was amazing and very accommodating, as they made me amazing meals at the drop of a call - which were a bounty of deliciousness. Would stay there again without hesitation.

Excelente servicio en general

Good quality/price relationship

Tutto Ok

The staff and service they provide at the Shaqilath was outstanding. Very welcoming and friendly. The room was spotless. Loved our stay here.

Temizligi ve konforunu begendik. Kahvaltı yeterliydi. Çalisanlar sıcak kanlı ve yardım severdi.

Un lugar bastante limpio y agradable, las camas estaban muy cómodas y es excelente si viajas a el Centro turístico de Petra. Muy cerca.

El servicio muy amable

Excelente servicio muy amables agradable ambiente

The hotel room is very modern, the staff is awsome, very helpfull, willing to help and offer options. In addition I was there for my birthday and during dinner, the dim the lights, bring a cake and start singing happy birthaday, it was awsome. Close to Petra (Walking distance), very good breakfast, good hotel and the best the people, coordinating everything even before we arrived

Petit hôtel sur les hauteurs de Petra, à 700 mètres de l'entrée du site. Nous prenions la voiture pour y aller, car remonter le soir après des kilomètres dans Petra !! De plus les parkings sont gratuits (quel beau pays, de ce point de vue !) L'hôtel a été refait, il est bien mieux que les photos sur le site. Il faudrait songer à les remettre à jour. Petite chambre mais très fonctionnelle avec salle de bain bien pensée (Ch 307), le tout très propre. Un parking privé juste en face, très pratique. Le restaurant est au dernier étage, avec une petite terrasse et une belle vue sur la ville. Restaurant simple avec nourriture locale de bonne qualité, idem pour le petit déjeuner simple mais complet et roboratif pour emmagasiner de l'énergie pour la visite de Petra. Personnel accueillant et serviable, mais seule la réceptioniste parle bien anglais.

it's a very nice small hotel on the hill with a very beautiful city view from the window. staffs are very nice and helpful. the shower cube may be a little small for big guys.

This is a brand new hotel with 10-12 minutes walk to Petra visitor center. Beautiful interior. Everybody is very friendly and trying to help. We asked for an iron - delivered within 5 minutes. Asked for refrigerator - same thing. Chef cooked especially for us a vegetarian meal. Definitely recommended.

Personnel agréable. Chambre propre et spacieuse. A 3 minutes en voiture du site de petra et à 7 minutes à pied des restaurants.

Il giorno del check out abbiamo trovato la struttura deserta e non abbiamo neanche potuto usufruire della colazione che avevamo pagato. Mai vissuta esperienza simile.

Prachtige hotel voor een redelijke prijs. Lig 4 minuten rijden van de ingang van Petra. De kamer is schoon en netjes. Een 4 sterren hotel waard.
