This hotel was awesome. From the decor of the hotel to the food & rooftop. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and highly recommend it. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Also, close to Rainbow Street and many shops/dining spots.

Great hotel but not Jordanian hospitality
A beautiful hotel in the heart of Amman. Very well located not far from Rainbow Street (although uphill!) On checking in we were warmly greeted & were so impressed with the room. Very large, comfy bed, very modern furnishings, the most modern / new in all our stay around Jordan. Unfortunately we had a mishap the following morning. We were told breakfast was from 7-12 in the restaurant downstairs. On going down at 7am, no one was there at all, it was dark & chairs were on the tables. We went to reception to query this & had an awful experience of poor hospitality where we were told to just wait, the man doing breakfast wasn’t here yet. At 0710 we went down again, nothing. We went back to reception & were basically ignored. We needed to check out soon to catch a flight that morning. In the end we had a call from reception telling us the man was “on his way” (but not here yet) at 0715. We went to check out, the one receptionist stood outside smoking, saw us, ignored us. As we needed to catch our taxi we gave him our room card. He simply asked had we taken anything from the minibar! Which was quite amusing since we had paid for a breakfast that now we could not have due to their tardiness & unprofessionalism. Ultimately it was not the lack of breakfast that we had paid for but how it was dealt with by the man at reception with very little sympathy, as though nothing was out of the ordinary. A shame as otherwise a beautiful hotel, it was unfortunate to have that poor service.

Property is very well located . Reception is open 24h . We arrived at 3am and the person at the reception was waiting for us and also asked us if we need any food . Very nice people, helpful , hotel is very clean and close to all touristy places .I loved it however the breakfast was àla carte and very minimum . I would work in breakfast but overall I would definitely stay here again.

Such an amazing place to stay! Located so close to downtown without the hustle and bustle outside your door step. Beautifully decorated and the staff was friendly. Breakfast was delicious! The rooftop was a vibe and the food was scrumptious. The ambiance was chic.

The hotel lobby and suite are absolutely beautiful. It’s a quiet property right next to downtown Amman in a very walkable area. The staff are kind, helpful, and friendly people. My time here was so easy and seamless. I highly recommend staying here.

Very warm welcome and reception. Kind and helpful staff. Fantastic location, a short hop from the touristic Rainbow Street yet equally close to the more authentic Jordanian neighborhood. I am looking forward to seeing the rooftop once it’s complete.

A design-forward hotel with comfortable rooms
Lovely new hotel in the downtown area, close to the Grand Mosque, the Citadel, and Rainbow Street. The room was well-appointed, bed was comfortable and the bathroom compact but with a great shower. The decor is on the funky side which makes the property a lot of fun. The restaurant is serves well-prepared food and serves wine, beer and spirits as well. Breakfast was decent if you eat eggs or cheese, but if you don't there isn't anything besides a croissant with butter and jam. I'd suggest adding a yogurt option to round out the menu. I had asked question before we arrived on a question about the reservation and the person who checked us in was very helpful in resolving the question. Hair dryer should be a better quality as it overheated and stopped after 5 minutes of use. We'd certainly return for another stay.

Great stay in downtown Amman
Hotel Philosophy was a great find for our stay in Amman. Very friendly staff, clean and spacious rooms. Very close to Downtown Amman and there is free street parking right in front of the hotel for those who’ve rented a car. 10/10 would recommend.
