I had a nice buffet at the restaurant, a lot of options, tasty food and one of the employees (Odai) made my stay very good. Coffee was also nice, and view from restaurant is great. Recommended after long walk in Petra :)

Part of a wonderful cruise trip in 2011 to Jordan's Petra and Egypt's Nile, Pyramids and Valley of the Kings. we stopped off for lunch in this fine hotel. As we were on an excursion, we only passed through so did not see the rooms and experience an overnight stay, however it was an excellent lunch and service. capping one of the wonders of the world. I'm sure you would you the whole experience of the area and the wonders of Petra.

The rooms at the Crowne Plaza Petra need updating, but I think that is in the works. The pool was also under maintenance during our visit which is tough when traveling with children. I do believe that the hotel is working on both of these issues so maybe email first before booking if an updated room and a pool are important to you. The location is fabulous as it is literally next door to the entrance to Petra! I did Petra by night and maybe 6 hours the following day with my 15 and 13-year-old. We LOVED Petra, so this location worked for us. We also loved the Cave Bar which is onsite. My kids liked the food, and I loved having a drink in Jordan which is a rare event!

We stayed a night in this hotel as part of a tour of Jordan and a day visit to Petra. The hotel is right at the entrance to the Petra site and also runs a buffet restaurant in the Petra site, where we broke for a modest lunch during our visit. The hotel decor is quite dated and the facilities more typical of a 3* hotel by European standards. The hotel was clean and comfortable and the staff were very friendly. The main attraction of the hotel is the Cave bar, which we enjoyed some drinks in and they had musical entertainment in the evening.

Hello MissRed77, I welcome your thoughts and thank you for making us a part of this trip to Jordan. We endeavor to bring great experiences for all our guests. It made me smile that you enjoyed the lunch buffet served, your experience at our Cave Bar and our proximity to the Petra convenient. I'm also happy to let you experience our bright smiles and warm hospitality, not to mention, our clean rooms. I'm glad you liked it. On the downside, I'm sorry that the hotel decor seemed dated to your liking. Don't worry, I took all the necessary steps to bring this to our management's attention to check on how we can turn this around. Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your stay with us. Having you back in the future will be the greatest reward we can ever ask and I am positive to make it better. Best regards, Frank A. Case Manager IHGService

Very comfortable, spacious rooms. Friendly service. Excellent food in good restaurant. And ideally situated adjacent to the entrance to Petra. Good for private or group accommodation, and comfortable public areas.

The man working behind the window at the Crown Plaza beverage kiosk (not the resturant next door) tried charging us 50JD ($70) for 2 Fanta, 2 small Perriers, 2 local beers, a small Pringles, and a tin of mixed nuts. When we pointed out it there must be some mistake and started adding the costs based on the menu, another of his colleagues came out to defend him and said it was because we hadn't added the 17% taxes. When we demanded that they provide us a bill - the total came to substantially less and jived with the prices on the menu + 17% tax - 35JD, NOT 50JD. We've been going to Petra for the last 2 years and often stop at the the restaurant next door - also Crown Plaza - and have had nothing buy exceptional sevice. Too bad a few bad apples (who obviously didn't realize we've been living in Jordan for some years) don't mind risking a good business's reputation for their own expense.…

On our honeymoon we got a room with to separate beds and a baby bed. The hotel was not full, but after complaining by the reception the answer was, we our fully booked so no solution. Staff was terrible and arrogant. Didn't care for the customers and the room was dirty.
