- This hotel is a total scam. We went there but it was under maintenance. The security guy sent us to Golden Tulip hotel.
- The guy at the reception told us that Golden Tulip is 4-star hotel which is not even actually deserving 2-stars
- The breakfast has almost nothing. And what they serve was all perished.
- Rooms were horrible, noisy and dirty.
- The staff attitude was the only thing we appreciated.
We booked Mina Hotel but when we arrived to the Hotel they told us the hotel is closed. They told us to go to Golden Tulip Hotel what was just opposite to Mina Hotel.The Hotel receptionist told us the Mina Hotel and The Golden tulip have a some management. So we got the room in Golden Tulip. The Hotel room was very clean.Breakfast was good staff extra friendly and helpful. Location is just perfect. I recommend this hotel to everyone.Thanks for all of the staff we had a nice stay.
Ενα ξενοδοχείο που ειχε βαφτεί και ανακαινιστει προσφατα. Θέλει δουλειά ακόμη. Το λόμπυ ηταν φτωχο, το πρωινό είχε λίγες επιλογές. Οι τουαλέτες του εστιατοριου πιο πολύ καθαριοτητα.
When i booked the room, according to Expedia, it included half board. Nevertheless, on arrival the hotel disputed this and claimed that only breakfast was included despite my Expedia booking confirmation showing half board. The person on reception wasn't very helpful and did little to resolve the problem. After talking to the Reservations Manager I was offered one complimentary dinner. Sadly, the hotel doesn't serve dinner in its restaurant, you have to go to their sister hotel - The Golden Tulip - over the road. On arrival the restaurant was rammed with people, so i just gave up. Aside from the issue with being ripped off over food, the rest of the experience was disappointing too. Half of the power sockets in the room didn't work, WIFI didn't reach the fifth floor, the air con was horrendously noisy even on a low setting, there was hardly any hot water in the morning and the bathroom was dirty. Bizarrely the TV remote, hair dryer and lamp switches were all covered in cling film, almost as if the hotel didn't want you touching them. All-in-all a poor experience. The one positive thing is the hotel's location, which is very central.
This was a terrible place! Apart from the receptionist who was nice and polite.... nothing to recommend at all! The hotel looks good on pictures but it’s a disaster In reality! The room was ok although nothing to be impressed with! The swimming pool was cas trophique and so was breakfast! I will never go back there even if I went for free!
Everyone at the Mina was very gracious and accommodating. The key card would not work on our room and there was no security lock. The person at the front desk changed our room. We were fortunate to get an ocean view. The area is active and great for walking night and day, and the breakfast at Mina is excellent. We would stay again when we return to Jordan
The hotel was badly outdated, which showed in all the details. The keycard didn't work and only the fourth time I had returned back to the reception and after the staff changing the room for two times I finally got in the room. The room was not properly cleaned, the floors were untidy and you were able to see your steps as on the unclean floor, the shower floor was full of sand, the sheets had burning marks. If I had had payed half the price the level would have been satisfactory. The staff was not too welcoming and I am not expecting anything special. The location of the hotel is however good in the city centre. That is definitely a positive side of the story.
Przyzwoity hotel za rozsądne pieniądze, WIFI w lobby oraz w pokoju, otrzymaliśmy pokój na najwyższym pietrze z widokiem na morze, w hotelu jest zewnętrzny basen , śniadanie OK
Bardzo dobra lokalizacja , wszędzie bardzo blisko na piechotę. Polecam ten hotel
Me and my wife we stayed there for 4 days everything was great the location is awesome shops bazzars restaurants we had the breakfast on the roof I can’t explain how the view were amazing on the gulf professional service and fast take your hooka while setting on the pool . Over all 5 stars 👍👍👍👍 thank you Mena hotel 👌💯💯💯
Though none of the advertised restaurants in the hotel were open, the rooms were clean, the air conditioning worked and the staff were pleasant.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Hotel was a bit dated and rooms needed smartening up - particularly bathroom and balcony. The lady on reception was very inexperienced and seemed to frequently leave her post meaning there was a long wait to check in.
Nothing was like the pictures they showed. The rooms didn't even have a working AC. Towels were ripped and bed sheets had brown stains on them. Supposedly there is free wifi but there wasn't and free parking was whatever you found in the street. This is more of a scam then it is a deal. Probably the last time I use Expedia! Shameful!
