Simply perfect. Cheap, clean, friendly, helpful, close to everything. Paid $20 and I was extremely pleased. Perfect hidden gem. Highly recommend if you want a clean room and bed to lay your head with no frills. We loved it zero complaints and the rooftop OMG to die for what a view.

Great view over Petra
You get a great view drom the hotel overlooking Petra, but quite a steep climb from the visitor centre. However, there are a lot of shops, other hotels and restaurants in the area.
A very helpful receptionist from the Phillipines who will help and offer advice!
Very friendly staff and in a nice area with good views. The ecomodation is basic, but good! The air-conditioning is superb (the most important) and the area has good shops and restaurants. A nice stay.
Innanzitutto non è un hotel ma un ostello di bassissima qualità, nonostante la Vostra presentazione alquanto ingannevole. Le camere (se proprio vogliamo definirle tali...) sono loculi microscopici con servizi (se proprio vogliamo definirli tali...) altrettanto piccoli. Pulizia inesistente, accettazione (escluso la "povera" receptionist) inseistente. Totalmente insoddisfatto e deluso, soprattutto da Expedia per aver presentato una bettola come una perla. Come da clausole inoppugnabili, una volta arrivati nella "struttura" e resici conto di quale pessimo ambiente avessimo prenotato, siamo stati costretti a pagare la prima delle due notti prenotate, dovendo ricorrere ad altra struttura che allo stesso prezzo ci ha fornito tutto quello che ci aspettavamo di trovare (reception funzionale e cortese, camere spaziose e pulite, ottima colazione e cena). E' stata una di quelle esperienze che in futuro mi faranno evitare Expedia. Negativissimo.
In maniera INGANNEVOLE Expedia propone l'Hotel PETRA GATE come struttura di LUSSO a Wadi Musa, ma posso assicurarVi che nulla corrisponde alla descrizione che si trova sul sito. Fabbricato FATISCENTE e DECADENTE esternamente e soprattutto internamente. Le camere sono di dimensioni anguste e buie perché la maggior parte di loro sono prive di finestre. Lenzuola e cuscini ingialliti, letti e materassi logori, bagni indicibili, assenza degli arredi minimi per mancanza di spazio intorno al letto. Dopo aver visionato le camere disponibili e non averne trovata una decorosa e valevole del prezzo richiesto, abbiamo deciso di rinunciare alla prenotazione delle 2 notti prenotate e andarcene. Purtroppo abbiamo dovuto pagare la penale pari al costo della prima notte, ma fuori da lì ci siamo rivolti ad un’altra struttura che per la STESSA CIFRA ci ha offerto camere e servizi di buon livello di gran lunga superiore a quanto “offerto” dal Petra Gate Hotel e soprattutto fedeli e rispondenti alle descrizioni promosse dai siti di settore.
Make yourself a favour and avoid this place. I wouldn't know how to start because everything was a disaster. Furniture (including beds and mattresses) are from another era, the bathroom cannot be smaller, wifi only works in the reception area (when it works...), noisy, smelly, dirty, leaking pipes, bugs, no water pressure... You are in Petra / Wadi Musa, so you know prices are high, but at least you expect some quality. You won't get any here. This is the kind of hotel you don't feel like coming back to after a long day of sightseeing. It is a pity because they could make it better if they invested a little in the place.
Struttura situata nella zona turistica di Wadi musa, vicina ai ristoranti. Petra è raggiungibile in 20min a piedi, ma all'andata è tutta discesa...al ritorno magari è preferibile un taxi. La ragazza della reception è molto gentile e sempre disponibile ad aiutare e dare consigli. Consiglio questa struttura.

L'hôtel est bien situé (20-30min) à pied de Petra. Le personnel est accueillant et propose des pique-nique à emporter pour le midi. Les équipements de la chambre sont minimalistes (lit, salle de bain privée), la propreté était limite. Le prix correspond bien au service.

Great little gem in modern Petra
Petra Gate Hotel seems to be a youth hostel because when we booked two rooms, one for each of us, each room had multiple beds. One had three single beds, and the other had four. I didn't have a problem with that; I just wanted a private room to myself, and I got it! Each room had one electrical outlet, but a power-strip was available to provide multiple outlets. Towels and soap were provided upon request.
The hotel arranged for us to have an evening at the Turkish Baths at a discount. When we had a complaint about the baths, the hotel was quick to follow up with them to resolve it.
Customer service was outstanding here. The hotel may seem a bit rundown, with old plastered walls painted in fading colors, cheap bedding (mine was covered with kid's "Dora the Explorer" blankets), and bare basics. If you're looking for luxury, don't look here. But if you want a bed, shower, breakfast and some quiet sleep at a good price, this is the place.
The location is excellent: about a mile from the main entrance to Petra's ruins, and in the center of modern-day Petra. Restaurants, shops and every kind of convenience is readily available either next door, across the street or within a city block.
Best was the excellent customer service from the receptionist. I wish I had gotten her name so I could post it here. She was outstanding!
Friendly staff, but that is as far as it went. Crusty spongebob blankets. No trash bins. No towels or soap in room. Power outlets loose, hard to use. Had breakfast elsewhere. Hard, lumpy bed. Reserved a double, had two twins under the stairs. Dirty... for the price try to find something else.
