Candles Hotel

For the price I paid, I think it was money well spent.

I got the breakfast/dinner plan. The food was great, and the service from the STAFF was "exceptional"!!

Perfect place for staying in Petra. Very good location, just 5 minutes walk for main sightseeing.
Rooms are good size, very clean and comfortable. Here you can find everything you need for comfortable staying.
Also I really liked restaurant in the roof with amazing view!

Value for Money

I really enjoyed my stay at this property, it was more comfortable than the 5-star properties’ I stayed in Jordan. But let me warn you the furnishing here is old and gives a feel of poor maintenance. The room’s lockers didn’t work, there was no kettle in the room to heat drinking water, and the carpets looked dingy. So why was it more comfortable than a 5 star? Well, we had options for three actual beds in a room (not a folding one taking up whatever space is left in the room), this makes for a blessing when traveling with a kid. Also, the beds were super comfortable. In the end, I prefer 8 hrs of comfort sleep than 10 minutes of looking at great furnishing. Extra service included the reception selling us mineral water at a nominal rate, normally its always at a premium. When I asked for hot water they heated it in there pantry kettle and gave us, so it’s not like they are lacking in customer service, just more crude at it.

The breakfast had a great spread and the items very tasty. Although by 8:30 we were the only guest left and the staff had to be asked to replace items which were over (maybe everyone has an early start here).

The best part about the hotel is its location. Petra entrance is just 5-7 minutes’ walk away and the route is filled with other restaurants/cafes, shops, and a hammam.

My take its perfect for those who look for comfort and value for money, but if you like luxury and fancy stuff, stay away from this hotel.

Very good hotel in a great location. I stayed in this hotel for two nights for my visit to Petra. The hotel is less than 5 minutes walking from the Petra entrance. The room was very clean and the bed was good. The staff is very helpful and friendly. I can not think of any downside to this hotel.

I stayed for 3 nights and I had a great time. The location is great (5 min walkt to the entrance of Petra), the stuff is friendly and Abdullah as the owner likes to be in touch with the guests. We had several coffees together and he helped me a lot with his recommendations. The rooms are clean and the included breakfast was great. A great place to relax after exhausting days in Petra.

Very nice experience. Close to the archaeological site - only 5 minutes; lovely staff - they made everything possible to make our stay pleasant; clean and cozy rooms. We arrived before check-in time, but they hurried to have our room done so we don't wait.

Also, although the restaurant was closed at lunch, they still prepared fresh food for us - and not something they had around, but what we asked for.

I highly recommend this hotel, it's a very good price-quality ratio.

Nice hotel, quiet and very comfortable! Stuff are very hospitable. Everything you need they will try to help you with. Rooms are clean and cozy, hot water all the time, wi-fi is available. Also good restaurant in the roof with amazing view.
If you need interesting souvenirs -you can find here small shop, what is very useful.
And the most hospitable person in this hotel is Abdullah. He will tells you many interesting things about this city and helps you to organise any trip you what. Also the benefit in this hotel is location. To visit Petra you don't need any taxi, just 300 m and you are in front of entrance to the Petra!
So if for you comfort and clean is main things for staying- you are definitely need to stay in this place!

Candles Hotel was amazing. The owner came to great us personally, I could watch the World Cup (which was quite important for me), and the price for the quality we got was great compared to other options we checked. Definitely worth passing by.
