Great view over Petra
You get a great view drom the hotel overlooking Petra, but quite a steep climb from the visitor centre. However, there are a lot of shops, other hotels and restaurants in the area. A very helpful receptionist from the Phillipines who will help and offer advice!

Great little gem in modern Petra
Petra Gate Hotel seems to be a youth hostel because when we booked two rooms, one for each of us, each room had multiple beds. One had three single beds, and the other had four. I didn't have a problem with that; I just wanted a private room to myself, and I got it! Each room had one electrical outlet, but a power-strip was available to provide multiple outlets. Towels and soap were provided upon request. The hotel arranged for us to have an evening at the Turkish Baths at a discount. When we had a complaint about the baths, the hotel was quick to follow up with them to resolve it. Customer service was outstanding here. The hotel may seem a bit rundown, with old plastered walls painted in fading colors, cheap bedding (mine was covered with kid's "Dora the Explorer" blankets), and bare basics. If you're looking for luxury, don't look here. But if you want a bed, shower, breakfast and some quiet sleep at a good price, this is the place. The location is excellent: about a mile from the main entrance to Petra's ruins, and in the center of modern-day Petra. Restaurants, shops and every kind of convenience is readily available either next door, across the street or within a city block. Best was the excellent customer service from the receptionist. I wish I had gotten her name so I could post it here. She was outstanding!

Crusty Spongebob Blankets
Friendly staff, but that is as far as it went. Crusty spongebob blankets. No trash bins. No towels or soap in room. Power outlets loose, hard to use. Had breakfast elsewhere. Hard, lumpy bed. Reserved a double, had two twins under the stairs. Dirty... for the price try to find something else.

Worst hotel in the world?
The worst hotel I have stayed in, worldwide in 35 years of backpacking! Dirty floors, bathroom appalling, toilet leaked round the bowel flooding the floor every time cistern flushed. Decor terrible with flaking paint from lines of damp. Old metal frame single beds creaked when you sat on them. Bedside cupboard drawers had no handles. Wiring old and sockets dangerous. Heating minimal from ancient leaking radiator. Lighting minimal and low wattage. Headtorch needed to read in bed. Stay of 2 nights so dire we got the management to deduct the 3 JOD/person daily (poor) breakfast charges, though with some difficulty. The advertised 10 minute walk to Petra's entrance gate mire like 20 mins downhill and 35 up.

Good value for money with free parking
The hotel itself is a hostel with some single private rooms which is where I stayed, Staff was friendly, Room was ready within 10 mins of me making the booking, Petra gate location is in the Gate of Petra town rather than actual Petra museum which is a 20 minute walk away, The room was fine, very tired, Bathroom clean but definitely needed a refurb and a new matress would have been nice, I cannot complain for the £25 I paid, It was clean safe, Could park the car, Would stay again 100%

Petra Gate -- a fabulous deal & a great location
I quite enjoyed my time at Petra Gate Hostel & Hotel. I arrived early enough for a room on the main floor...enjoyed very* much dinner on the roof-top watching the sunset...and I found the manager & staff to be most kind & helpful! The bathroom was modern & clean...the double bed very comfortable after a full day at Petra...and I loved the hot shower. The breakfast was basic but, for my tastes, very healthy. Overall, Petra Gate was a great deal for the money -- I stayed overnight so that I could enjoy a second day at Petra & I could have stayed longer! The hotel is a bit of a hike from the actual Petra site -- but again, I didn't at all mind the strenuous walk to an from the hotel.

Great location and the wonderful host you can find
This hotel was very good for the price. Excellent staff, good location near Petra, and proximity to market, shops and bank. Nasser the owner was especially helpful, and gave great tips regarding correct taxi fares to not get ripped off, where to buy things and things to see in Petra and Little Petra. When I arrived it was my birthday and he prepared a lunch for me free of charge. Bottom line: unbeatable for price.

Avoid the Petra Gate Hotel
Was looking for an inexpensive hotel while exploring Petra. The Petra Gate is a very down-market hotel. Broken toilets, sagging beds, no air conditioning, poor wifi connections, dirty floors and a pretty poor breakfast in the morning. Do yourself a favour and spend a few more dollars and get a decent room.

Great value, convenient for Petra
Hotel was very comfortable, staff was very nice and helpful with all things Petra. Such a great value for the price! Just a 2JD taxi ride down to the Petra Visitor Center. Breakfast was not really worth it, but overall had a great time here!

Nice hotel with roof top. Hotel staff helpful
I was welcomed with great customer service and enjoyed my stay. Be aware you're in a Muslim city, expect early morning prayers and call ahead if you're checking in after 9p.m. They lock up around 10 p.m. Overall, I felt safe and was satisfied!

Not as advertised
When reserved through hotels.com, the room description said, "retire to the bedroom and slip into the pillowtop bed with Egyptian cotton linens (none existent). The private bathroom has a shower, as well as bathrobes (no bathrobe). Complimentary wireless Internet access keeps you connected(okay connection), and the DVD player and TV with satellite channels are offered (no tv, and no cable for that matter) for your entertainment. This room is outfitted with a kitchen (what kitchen) A day bed, complimentary bottled water (had to pay), and a separate sitting area same as he bed) are among the conveniences offered." I don't know what other on eminences they're talking about. After a grueling hike at Petra, I should have paid a little more for a better hotel. The owner and his assistant were great people. But, I also wanted comfort and what was advertised.
