A castle in the sky above Petra
Pros:

Nomads hotel has a great location - it’s overlooking the whole of Petra.
So amazing.
Yöu can’t get enough of this view.
Imagine: sitting on the terrace for sunset and getting a nice drink from Josuf - there is not much more you can want.
The rooms are very nice and clean too and many of them have a great view as well.
The staff is doing everything to make you feel welcome: Rasul and Mohammed are trying to fulfill all your wishes.
A great place in a great area.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Helpful staff, clean room, nice shower and comfy bed. Great views from rooftop.

Cons:

It’s all uphill from petra which can be quite taxing when it’s midday and if you have bags walking up from the bus. It’s about 15 minute walk to downtown but also was nice quiet location with good views.
