“Wonderful place to experience Umm Qais”

Our host was exceptional in making our stay memorable. Took us to an incredible viewpoint of the Jordan Valley. Our dinner at the guest house, cooked by local families, was fabulous. Lovely courtyard for dinner. Our breakfast was great; special mention to the egg and tomato dish. Our room was pleasant and nicely appointed. Made plunger coffee early morning in the provided kitchen. Great place to stay in this special area.

Great service from the hosts and a wonderful breakfast. Close to everything in Umm Quais and a lovely evening meal was served as well. Very comfortable and homely. Don't be fooled by the approach to the property it is a real oasis in the town.

Great location, terrific view from the roof terrace, nice garden. Biggest asset: extremely attentive, welcoming and caring team, always going the extra mile. Can only recommend

We had an amazing time in beit al baraka. The staff was super friendly and the breakfast absolutely delicious. They offered us to have diner at a local house, which was a great experience as well.

“Highly recommended for a two day stay.”

Breakfast and dinner was excellent, our hosts Omaima and Wallid did a good job explaining all about the stay. The kitchen staff were also wonderful and the food was fresh and beautifully served.

This is a lovely place to stay in Um Qais. Everyone is very friendly, the garden and space on general is very nicely done. The food was excellent and we felt very much at home. I would definitely return!

“Excellent experience and amazing breakfast!”

Very very beautiful house, with many details, great terrace, garden and roof top. Rooms are very spacious and comfortable, with everything you need. We were alone in the house because there were no tourists that night and the very kind Walleed (staff) offered us to use the whole house for us. He even brought us some excellent sandwiches for dinner! Special mention also to the breakfast, the best I had during my trip in Jordan, local food homemade by the people of the village, very well.cooked by the woman at the hotel, it was just delicious.... It is well worth staying at this hotel, different from others in Jordan, a great experience!

Terribly expensive for very average rooms

“Great stay in northern Jordan”

Breakfast is fantastic, the team are great, the rooms are comfortable and the proximity to umm qais is perfect. The garden and rooftops are awesome as well. The real highlight for us was Walid, he really looked after us and was incredibly kind

Lovely hosts and lovely experience overall. Highly recommend anyone who is coming to Umm Qais to stay with them.

“Highly recommended!”

The breakfast was fantastic, freshly prepared by local women. We really enjoyed our tour with Ahmed to see the sunset over the Golan Heights and the Sea of Galilee, as well as our tour the next day with Ahmed of Gadarra. The atmosphere of the Inn is cozy and is comfortable for a long stay, although we only had one night.

“Great stay and experience of local Umm Qais”

We had a great stay! Beautiful location with views, and lovely people, especially Waleed. Very friendly and hospitable, nicest guy. Would recommend going here for the local experience.

“Outstanding”

The most amazing breakfast in thé garden. Cozy and very clean rooms with excellent beds. We also very much enjoyed the dinner experience in the home of a nearby family.

“Such a lovely hotel! The breakfast was amazing and the property is charming/has a great location.”

“Fondest memory!!”

To you I say Mr & Ms traveller, as you are now I was before, and as I am now you will be, enjoy Beit Al Baraka as we did, an experience that we will never forget! the amazing staff, we had 2 experiences (cycling & beekeeping) that both exceeded our expectations. The food was mind blowing especially the breakfast - special thanks to the lovely local ladies who cooked our meals. Umm Qais is a place that I will definitely visit again as well as Beit Al Baraka.

“a unique experience where you can meet and share with the locals”

friendly staff a lot of activities incredible breakfast

“An excellent local experience with very warm and welcoming hosts, perfectly situated at Umm Qais.”

We had a brilliant time here at Beit Al-Baraka House. The hosts were very helpful and welcoming. It is a beautifully decorated house and the rooms are set on 2 different floors each with a kitchen. There are beautiful photographs of local sites and traditions hung on the walls. The house is perfectly situated within 5 mins walking distance of the Umm Qais ruins of the ancient Gadara and we could walk back to the house easily at night after dinner which we had at the Romero restaurant at the ruins. It was also fabulous to walk back to the ruins in the morning to watch the sunrise over the town. Beit Al-Baraka house has a beautiful garden full of fruit trees and we enjoyed relaxing there. It has also a wonderful terrace over looking the town, and we highly recommend having tea up there to watch the sunrise. We then had a most generous and hearty breakfast full of locally produced traditional food including home-made jams and butter and freshly baked bread. We had a chance to buy some of the jams and take them back home with us too! This guest house is a special place in Jordan and we highly recommend it. We will visit here again.

“A creative solution and all in all a nice memory”

When we arrived in al-Baraka around 4pm, we were told that there was a double booking and we had to stay at another place as they were fully booked. This is spite of an email exchange before we arrived. This was our second day in Jordan and we were tired from the trip so this did not go down well. They put us up at Beit Philodemus, which was indeed a lovely place with charming owners. To compensate for the mishap, they offered to buy us a sim card for Jordan, which was very welcome as we had just arrived and planned to stay for a fortnight. We had breakfast at Beit al-Baraka, which was indeed the best we had in Jordan. As we didn't stay there, all we can say is that the Beit al-Baraka looks cosy, the rooms we saw had a nice view and it has a nice garden. It was also easy to find and we appreciated being given instructions on how to get there.

“Characterful and individual, with great spirit, ambience and food”

Very individual, staff very personable. Quite old fashioned and quirky but very clean and comfortable, plenty of space. Nice roof top terrace, and very close to walk to Roman ruins. Fabulous breakfast, the best we had during our three weeks in Jordan!
