OK the staff were very friendly and helped arranging tours etc but the room was absolutely horrible and depressing with bare electricity cables over the wall, painting peeled off, toilet bowl out of order and most importantly, tiny window on top of wall that I felt like I was in dark prison cell. I'd rather pay more and stay somewhere... More

I arrived around 1am in downtown Amman from the Airport after 30+ hour in planes and airports, and considering the entrance to Abbasi Palace is off an alleyway and took me five minutes to find the recpetion, you won't be suprised to hear I thought to myself "dear god, what have I done". But once you enter the reception (through... More

I like this hostel. Lady in reception was so funny and friendly. staff there are very friendly and they are always ready to help you. I took 2 share tour to Jerash an to Madaba mount nebo, it was quit cheap and also I met in this hotel very interesting and good company. Rooms are simple and clean.

A great place with some very friendly and helpful staff. The room was fine with a TV. It's a good place to meet up with fellow travellers and share the cost of taxis to see the sights. It's a bit difficult to find on your own as it's down a sidestreet and the only way in seems to be by... More

I stayed at the Abassi Palace hotel/hostel in Jan 2012 for 5 nights. I had taken the airport bus for 3 JD to North Station (the final stop) and then a taxi from here to the hostel. Be warned that once you get to the North Station you will be swamped by taxi drivers offering to take you into downtown... More

Getting here is quite difficult as even the bus servces to Amman will have touts beside the road telling you there place is the Abbasi Palace. The locals find it quite amusing but if you are not careful you could lose a deposit by ending up somewhere else! After you catch the bus from the airport to the bus depot... More

I read a lot of reviews about the hotel and about how fantastic the owner and the staff is and they are just wonderful. Staying at the Abbasi hotel for 2 days was to be at home away from home. The accommodation is very basic but the staff and the charm of the place totally make up for it. I... More

The Abassi Palace is a sweet place to stay. I traveled to Jordan earlier this year alone. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The common area is a great place to meet fellow travelers and the hotel is located perfectly in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Amman. If your looking for simple, clean and friendly this...

I'll keep this short and sweet. For a hostel in the Middle East, this is as good as you get. These folks actually gave me a pice 5 JDs less than they quoted me. They were ridiculously accommodating and did not try to push anything on me whatsoever. This place came to me as a recommendation and I would strongly... More
