For the price I paid, I would therefore have expected a lot more but this is just the way things seem to be in Oman. Hotel and Location The hotel is nice although a bit dated. Its location is pretty strange... More

Please may I recommend this hotel. While the location leaves a lot to be desired the hotel management were so friendly and eager to please us.

First of all this hotel is not at all associated with the Holiday Inn brands! The place is old and way out in the middle of a construction, junk yard, drill maintenance yards. Far from all towns but relatively close to the Airport. The hotel is old, BUT the staff is just GREAT! I cannot not say enough about the... More

The staff is super helpful and friendly, rooms are clean and comfortable, only downside is that it is located in industrial area and need a taxi anytime you want to go to shops/restaurants or beach. The area is changing quickly, shops and residential buldings are rising from the ground. Overall I recommend this hotel to anyone who is interested in... More

Staff was very accommodating and friendly. They helped us locate sites we wanted to see and provided a local map. We asked for two non-smoking rooms and were originally put in to two smoking rooms. We were then moved as one room smelled of stall cigarettes. We were moved to the third floor were one room was non-smoking but other... More

The hotel is totally out of main city of muscat. No shops around,except sand. No variety in food. Actually i was looking for Indian dishes, but i didnt find any in the menu. Internet is also very expensive to buy. Swimming pool is good. Overall,if you want to hangout nearby, then there is nothing. More

I stayed in Muscat for 1 night with my wife and another couple, so we had booked 2 rooms. The reviews on Trip advisor was mixed, but we anyway took a chance and booked this hotel, mainly for the price at which we got the rooms (30 OMR per night per room). Only issue with the hotel is the location... More
