This hotel is located right by the Ruwi roundabout, less than 5 minutes walk from the bus station. This is perfect for those travellin by bus or driving to the countryside. It's only 10 minutes' cab drive from the corniche and the main beaches. The facilities are good, the rooms are clean, spacious, and they offer free wi-fi, which for... More

I was a member of a cricket tour to Oman (yes, they do play cricket there!) and had never before visited that part of the world. The hotel is therefore the first thing one has contact with and therefore an important part of the trip. I don't think the staff had ever dealt with a cricket tour before and certainly... More

This hotel is ok, although the restaurant is poor and the service isn't great, the pool side bar is good. I travel to Muscat quite a lot and would stay here again, although I prefer to stay at other hotels More

The location was bit hard to get to with a rental car. Ruwi area is the most confusing section of Muscat to drive in and we struggled to get there at first. However, they were cool about us checking in early. They also let us check out late at 4pm without additional charge. Couple of bars are on site but... More

Good location in Ruwi area (central but slightly away) and a short drive to the corniche...very close to where you can get cabs and minibuses (and buses if you are going out of town) but watch crossing the roads near the roundabout! Rooms were nice. Staff were ok but not overly helpful...don't expect them to go out of their way... More

Hi, I stayed at Ruwi for 3 nights. The hotel is located a taxi/drive away from main attractions, however it is convenient to get on freeways to go out of town if you have a car. I also found it handy to explore Muscat, Muttrah and Al-Qurum beach, as the hotel is smack half way between these towns. Reception stuff... More
