Start of an Intrepid adventure
Great location. Easy walking to Citadel and Rsinbow Street. Across the road from Hashem Restaurant. Great shopping area. Rooms are large. Great air conditioner. Bathroom is very old with stained tiles. Shower sprayed the bathroom. Really really noisy with constant car horns.

Breakfast was appalling. No power so there was no hot water for coffee. No explanation or apology from the staff there. Yet the staff at reception were drinking coffees they had gone out for themselves. Finally one of the guests asked for coffees for us and one of them went and got us some. Good location though and other than the breakfast it was ok

Generally all downtown hotels are run down
I chose to stay in this hotel in the downtown area because I wanted to checkout the local restaurants and close to the Roman Theater and the citadel. But I’m disappointed for the condition and the noise. I believe most of the hotels in downtown are generally run down and bad. For the same price range you can stay a bit further in Abdali side. Although the manager was very accommodating me to change room due to the street noise. The cars here honk constantly because there are no marking lanes on the road and you can imagine the rest.

Dear Tom, Good day from ART Downtown Hotel I personally was glad to meet with you and talk in some details of downtown. I agree with you that we are in the heart of downtown where daily life is always active. As you recognized that all our street rooms are installed with double glazed windows, which minimize the street noise to tiny level. You can find prices similar to ours in Abdali area or another area in Amman, but for sure far from the active daily life of the city which many guests look for to enrich their experience of Amman. Have a great time Best Regards Sameer Baitamouni

The Art Hotel is centrally located downtown, walking distance to all the main sights and local favorites - Citadel, Roman Theater, Hashem Restaurant. The hotel is modern and very comfortable and clean. The best part is the staff. They are always friendly and can help you out with day trips.

Simple hotel close to Citadel
Fine for a few nights stay. Not many amenities in hotel, but there is a basic restaurant (didn't try it). Room was clean, bed was comfortable except it had a foam topper on it that was not attached to anything and kind of slid around during the night. Talking to others in group, seems they all had this. Very close to decent restaurant options and to historic sites.

The location is centrally located and very closed to restaurants. The bed was very uncomfortable with two different layers of mattress. The top layer was meant to be a memory foam but it wasn't and it foam mover if your body moved. The sheet was very disgusting - same as the bathroom.

The hotel manager was very very rude
I was meeting a friend for lunch just down the street. As we started to walk around it began to rain so we were just going to go to the room. The hotel manager refused to allow my guest to come to my room. I didn't see anything on the site when I booked the room but then they informed when when I arrived. This is absolutely ridiculous. My guest wasn't staying the night and it was mid afternoon. Not only did he refuse to allow my guest upstairs, he was extremely rude in the way that he was asking me who this person was and why they needed to go to my room. It was all extremely unprofessional and rude. I do not recommend anyone staying at this hotel and will certainly NEVER spend my money here again.

We always make sure to guarantee the comfort and joy of our guests, as well we have rules to maximize the experience of stay at ART Downtown, we usually hand A4 paper to all our guests and ask them to read it in order to make the stay the best, this is exactly what happened with you, and one of the main points is "guests are not allowed in the rooms". We officially register all our guests "as passport copy" before they go to their rooms which is important to keep the safety and security for all, we need our guests to feel comfortable and at home too, I remember the case of your guest, as he was not registered or known to us, as well you and he refused to register his ID at our front desk, that was unacceptable to break the rules of our hotel according to the paper you were already handed when you checked in. We always welcome you to be our guest once again when you have a chance to come back to Amman. All my best regards Sameer Baitamouni Hotel Manager
