The location is great. 5 mins walk from the bus station and downtown. The owner family is super super kind and hospitable. I was lucky because Anas was preparing the welcome dinner when I checked-in in the evening. Breakfast is very tasty. They keep the room and bathroom clean all the time. The atmosphere is incredible which makes you feel like staying at home. The best place in Jordan!

It has a beauful, warm vibe. You feel like home in the first step through the door. Loved the complimentary tea. The ceiling fans do a great job at cooling the room. Beds have curtains for privacy and light prevention. I had to leave early in the morning and the staff had to interrupt his sleep to prepare me a breakfast 🥹. Thank you

First night fantastic location, very lively and great vibe. Easy walking to many restaurants and shops. Very helpful owner who goes over and beyond to make a stay that is comfortable and just right for you. We are in our late sixties so for us the location was a bit too noisy, so the owner took us to his other hostel (Alamer home from home ) for our second night and it was wonderful. A bit further from the beach but still easy walking distance to the beach, restaurants and shops. We loved the very friendly and homely vibe in this quiet location.

Only 2 minutes’ walk from the beach of Eilat and several steps from the Mall Hayam shopping centre, Little Prince Hostel-5 Min Walk To The Beach offers air-conditioned rooms located in the very lively tourist area near the night clubs.

Such a comfortable bed! And AC was running strong when we arrived, which is critical in Eilat in July. Location was ideal for activities. We walked to a great dinner spot (Branja) followed by a stroll to the beach.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This is a great place for backpackers. The location is just fantastic, just a kilometer away from Aqaba Gateway, and right opposite the local bus station. They have a balcony where you can dry your clothes, something not hostels have. You can also plan your water activities from this place, and tours as well. They also have a range of diving equipment you can use for free. The breakfast is really good as well.

    Frankly, I advise all guests in this wonderful hostel. Very beautiful view, great location, the owner of the hostel and his son Abdullah. They help you with everything, a swim in the boat, and the Wadi Rum tour is the most amazing. The prices are cheap and the beach is beautiful. Thank you I will be back
