Great stay with the best staff in an excellent location
Pros:

This hotel is absolutely amazing but the staff are what really make this hotel! They are so incredibly friendly and helpful, especially after multiple cancelled flights - they really looked after us!! The breakfast each morning was tasty with a great selection, and the rooms were clean and spacious. The hotel is in an excellent location to explore Rainbow street and Downtown Amman. I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Amman!!

Cons:

Nothing, it was perfect

A Comfortable and Enjoyable Stay at Sydney Hotel
Pros:

I had a wonderful stay at Sydney Hotel and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Amman. The location is fantastic — all the main attractions are nearby, making it very convenient to explore the city without needing long commutes.

The hotel itself is not very big, but that’s actually part of its charm. It’s calm, well-organized, and very efficient, offering everything you need for a comfortable stay without feeling crowded or overwhelming. The atmosphere is peaceful, which made it easy to relax after a day of sightseeing.

One of the highlights each morning was the breakfast — it was absolutely delicious with great variety and quality.

However, the true standout of this property is the staff. They were incredibly helpful and welcoming from the moment I arrived. They assisted me with booking transportation and organizing different tours, making the entire trip smooth and stress-free. Their hospitality truly made a difference in my overall experience.

I would definitely stay here again!

Cons:

One small downside at Sydney Hotel is that they don’t offer in-house lunch or dinner service. However, it’s still easy to order food online, so it’s not a major issue — just something to keep in mind if you prefer dining at the hotel.

Pros:

가격대비 대만족!! 호텔 스탭들이 이래저래 도와줘서 너무 고마웠음!
특히 동행이 택시비로 낼 현금이 부족할 때 도와준
Rafael(철자 잘 기억이 안남) 라파엘 너무 고미워요~ 제가 다리 삐어서 얼음 달라했을때 얼음과 자기 진통제까지 챙겨줘서 너무나 감동받았음. 너무나 낯선 나라에서 여행으로 걱정했는데 편하게 머물다가 갔어요~ 다음에도 암만에 오면 무조건 시드니 호텔에서 머물 예정!!
