    I had a fantastic stay at Battuta Hostel. The value for money was great and the room was comfortable and spacious. The location was ideal, with easy access to the downtown area and Rainbow Street. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home.

    The only suggestion I have for improvement is the menu for breakfast. It would be great if there were more variety and options to choose from.

    The value for money at Battuta was incredible! The room was spacious and comfortable, with lots of natural light and a lovely breeze from the open windows. The location was perfect, within a 1.5km radius of all the historical attractions and just a stone's throw away from the main road and food street. The staff, Ibrahim, Minwer, Saleem, and Muna, were like family. They really made my stay extra special.

    The breakfast could use a little improvement, maybe adding a few more options to cater to different preferences.

    I recently stayed at a hostel in Jordan and had an amazing experience. The staff and volunteers at the hostel were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about traveling in the country. They even went out of their way to assist me with fixing my simcard late at night. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with a private bathroom in the double room I stayed in. The hostel also had great common areas, including a cozy rooftop and a spacious kitchen. One of the things that stood out to me was the friendly atmosphere and the opportunity to meet other travelers. it was one of the best hostels I have ever stayed at.

    All good! 😃

    The hostel had a cozy and well-decorated atmosphere. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the owners were friendly and accommodating. I particularly enjoyed the location, which was conveniently close to the main road and a variety of shops and restaurants. the hostel had a small supermarket nearby, making it easy to grab any necessities.

    While the hostel was overall a great experience, I did notice a few areas for improvement. As the hostel is relatively new, there were some minor issues that I encountered.

    The bed and separate bathroom in the female dorm were great. Welcoming owner Selim made me feel at ease. Convenient location near nice eateries and easy access to downtown and Rainbow Street. Many outdoor spaces and a lovely rooftop terrace.

    Staying at Battuta was a fantastic experience. The hostel's prime location near Rainbow Street made exploring the city a breeze. The owners, a group of four amazing guys, went above and beyond to make me feel at home. I loved the hostel's vibrant decorations and the cozy common areas where I could meet fellow travelers. The hostel also offered yoga, workout, and language classes, adding a unique touch to my stay. The comfortable beds and clean facilities ensured a good night's sleep. I highly recommend Battuta for anyone visiting Amman.

    The staff is super nice, especially Minwer. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the Jordan Museum and the Citadel. The bathrooms are huge with comfortable beds and ample space. The kitchen is well-equipped and there are plenty of options for buying food nearby. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, always willing to help with any needs.

    Felt like family, nothing to complain about.

    I recently stayed at Battuta for a week during my trip to Jordan. The hostel was exceptionally clean with a pleasant atmosphere. The staff, Ibrahim, Abdullah, and Minwer, went above and beyond to provide fantastic guest service, including help with travel arrangements. The well-stocked pantry allowed for easy cooking or dining at nearby eateries. The cozy seating area and small garden added to the home-like feel. The location was convenient and within walking distance of main attractions. The spacious room had a comfortable bed. I will definitely be staying at Battuta again on my next visit to Amman.

    Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

    Great location tucked away in a quiet street, but still close to shops and restaurants. The common area has a cozy, traditional feel. Met amazing people and ended up traveling together. Comfortable beds, hot showers, and reliable WiFi. The staff, especially Ibrahim and Minwer, go above and beyond to ensure a fun and comfortable stay. Even allowed me to use the facilities after I checked out. Highly recommend Battuta Hostel for a memorable stay in Amman.
