Great atmosphere in the bar and you can see at least one of the televisions from where ever you are seated if your interested in sports. Friendly efficient staff and we didn't have to wait long for the food. The club sandwich was excellent, the baked potato and beans were delicious unfortunately I only got 15 beans!! The sausages were... More

I have to stay in Muscat regularly on business and I am struggling to find a quality hotel in a good location for a reasonable price. The location of the hotel is almost perfect at Qurm Heights for my work and views. I arrived from my flight at 10:30 and was relieved to be allowed to check in and go... More

Beautiful hotel with lovely views if you get a sea-facing room rather than the car park - sightly old-fashioned bathrooms by modern standards but fully functional, clean and well managed. Excellent food in the various restaurants and breakfast is a delight - staff are superb throughout - two colleagues got free birthday cakes and it wasn't eben their birthday.

The hotel is not so new nymore, but has large clean rooms. Quite expensive, especially the restaurant. Swimmingpool is small but it has a nice private beach between rocks. Staff ok. The location is good near the beach promenade and the old city. But as Muscat is nothing comapred to the whole country, it's better no to stay too long... More

Stayed there for a couple of nights. They put me up on the 1st floor in a room actually overseeing the parking lot. Not the best view and had to close the curtains tight otherwise spot lights of parking lot would be bothersome. Not a bad place in case of fire, I thought, trying to think of the positives!

First review but third stay in last 12 months. Pluses are location, friendly and helpful staff and good F&B options. Main minus (apart from cost - hotels in Oman are pricey) is that the property is getting old - and beginning to show it. Good pool and seaside location. Have yet to try the gym but looks OK.
