Plaza View Hostel has a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Aţ Ţayyibah. The property is around 8.6 km from Al Khazneh The Treasury, 9.2 km from Petra and 15 km from Petra Church. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi. The family that runs the place will make you feel at home. They care dearly about their guests and will go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. If you stay here, know that the dinners and breakfasts are cooked by the mom of the family, and she's an exceptional cook. What's more, most of the food is grown in their garden downstairs. On our last night we had a lengthy conversation with the eldest son of the family, about jordanian culture and traditions, which was extremely interesting. The rooms are great and spacious, with comfortable beds, have a mini fridge and the hostel is 12 minutes drive trough a gorgeous road. Last but not least, as the name says the place has a breathtaking view over the mountains that surround Petra. If you have dinner here you'll enjoy a beautiful view of the sunset behind the mountains.
