Petra Pillars Way Hostel

A little treasure box

Pros: Beautiful little hostel, with a gorgeous view. The owners were very kind, flexible and hospitable. They prepared a huge breakfast to go. It was so helpful that we could leave our luggage there even after checkout time. The most beautiful and comfortable hostel I've ever been!!!

Cons: It's a hike from downtown up to the hill. 😅 There are shared toilets (2) and showers (2), but we were the only guests, so there was no issue.

Pros: The accommodation was very comfortable, clean, and located in a quiet area. The room was well-equipped, including air conditioning. The shared showers were perfectly sufficient, with shampoo, shower gel, and a hairdryer provided. The owner is truly passionate, very kind and friendly. Upon our arrival, he prepared a royal dinner for us, and each morning we had a packed breakfast ready (we stayed for 2 nights). On the last day, one member of our group wasn’t feeling well—there was no problem arranging a late check-out, and he even bought antibiotics for us. We definitely weren’t here for the last time. I give it a 10/10!

An amazing stay with exceptional hospitality, a perfect location near Petra

Pros: I loved how super clean and beautifully decorated the property was. The hospitality was exceptional. the owner and his brother, Mohammed, took great care of us. Mohammed even arranged delicious traditional food at a great price and presented it like VIP service. The location was perfect, very close to Petra, and having parking next to the hotel was very convenient. The personal touches, like bringing us sweets from their home, made us feel truly welcomed, just like family

Cons: Honestly, everything was great! If I had to mention one thing, maybe just that I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy it even more

Comfortable stay

Pros: The place was very clean, even the bathroom. The room was spacious and had everything needed. Very good for the price. I would definitely go back. The guys were very kind and helpful. Good value for money.

Cons: The communal areas are very cold, but I have been staying in other places in Jordan and it seems to be the same everywhere...so it wasn't really an issue. The hot water in the shower is a bit temperamental as well.

Perfect

Pros: It was wonderful, I had the double room on my own with shared bathroom. The host was very helpful. Made sure I get to have a local experience with the food.

Lovely view

Pros: Very helpful host, who speaks good English and replies quickly. From house was lovely view to town lights. In wintertime room become nicely warm thanks to AC (in many other places in Egypt and Jordan was cold rooms). For breakfast was enough fruits etc.

Pros: Pre-packed breakfast which was perfect as we were heading to Petra for 6 am. The host was very friendly and communicative, met us on arrival and we parked directly outside the hostel. Just remember to bring cash as we forgot but he very kindly took us to the nearest ATM.

Luxury in Petra

Pros: Everything.. Very clean.. Large room well appointed.. We had everything we needed.. Big breakfast too.. Hot showers.. Very modern.. Air conditioning and lovely furnishings too

Cons: N / A

Great place and great location with beautiful view, but the breakfast could be upgraded.

Pros: The place is great, well located and with a beautiful view of Wadi Musa especially by night. The beds are great, and everything very close for groceries shopping or restaurants.

Cons: The breakfast is not very great. It is given in a bag that we can carry to Petra and eat it there for people waking up very early. But for others eating in the apartment before leaving it is not good value for money. The breakfast bag should be an option.

Pros: Great value for money, the host was very friendly, and the room was great. It was clean, comfortable beds, and a mini fridge. They also packed us a nice breakfast for lunch, it really helped to have some energy for our Petra visit in the morning, I would definitely go back!
