I stayed for a week and had a great time staying at the Castle Star. Excellent location for walking around Amman. Staff were super kind, and the overall atmosphere was great to sit and chill after day trips and being out and about.

Wasn’t the most social hostel but in a great area and super easy to get about. Keep in mind it’s cash only. Man on the front desk was lovely, he offered to order me in Mansaf as the weather was bad and I didn’t want to leave the hostel. Super welcoming and lovely staff and clean hostel in a nice area

Solid hostel, good location next to the Citadel and close to the main Old Town area; security a bit lax, but overall I would recommend.

Hotel should have some more facilities. Tourists would prefer card payment and hotel should make some facilities on that rather than liquid cash as payment. There is no lift and washrooms are not spacious. Some more improvements should be made on total to make stay comfortable.

I loved this place! one of my fave hostels ever! the staff are AMAZING and food so so good. getting the breakfast/dinner is so worth it and great takeaway lunch to bring on hikes. Loved having the privacy of my own cabin but the social common room, met some cool people and got great recommendations for hikes. Location couldn’t be better too, so close to the visitor centre. I would never stay anywhere else! Everything was clean and comfortable, with locks. I loved my time here!

Jeg kom sliten etter sykdom og med en spontan reise, men Mohammad og familien var varme, hjelpsomme og gjorde hele opplevelsen spesiell. Hotellet er koselig og behagelig, med en felles balkong med utsikt over det romerske teateret og gamlebyen – magisk ved soloppgang og utover mot kveldsmørket. Rommet var komfortabelt, sengen god, og små detaljer som gratis teutvalg, kaffe og filtrert vann gjorde oppholdet ekstra hyggelig. Beliggenheten er perfekt, midt mellom Citadellet og gamlebyen, nær...

I spent some good time in this hostel, very kind staff and all the facilities included as it's written and depicted in pictures. However, I would recommend other people for transportation or tourist exploration, for example Ahmad (+962 7 9924 0491) who totally helped me to create good memories and same money as well!

Cute hostel/hotel in a great spot on Citadel Hill. The dorms are very affordable and offer an amazing view, including from the terrace, over downtown and the Roman theater, both within walking distance. Big thanks to Mohamed for his great tips. He’s also setting up new private rooms with all the comforts. I’d just set the canary 😉
