Hotels Near Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque in Muscat

I had a wonderful time in Intercity hotel bawshar! It is located within a 3 mins drive to the newest mall in Oman - Mall of Oman. The hotel offers a shuttle to bring you to Mall of Oman at specific times. You can ring them to arrange for a pick up back to the hotel when you are done shopping and dining! It's near the airport and all the main tourist attractions. The hotel is new, bed is super comfy and the housekeeper Perera and the staff in the restaurant like Aamir make you feel absolutely at home. It's a small hotel but it has a gym and a pool with one restaurant. Would strongly recommend this hotel!

Recently stayed at the Grand Millennium in Muscat, Oman. Having driven from Dubai, on arrival there was no valet parking but the Porter was instantly present to take care of the luggage which was efficiently dispatched to my room. Mr Ashraf at check-in was exemplary and continued to be so for my 14 day stay. I had initially booked a club room and Arhab, the chief steward in the Club Lounge, was very helpful and delivered excellent service. The Grand Millennium has a roof-top pool with fantastic views over Muscat City to the Gulf of Oman on the horizon. There is also a poolside bar (where Amy the bartender gently delivers fresh, cooling watermelon to your sun lounger) and an impressive roof-top tennis court. Mr Wilson the friendly Spa Manager can arrange swimming lessons and tennis coaching. Whilst I didn’t take advantage of the lessons, I did use the gym, the jacuzzi and the steam room/sauna on the ground floor where I was warmly greeted regularly by the effervescent and kind personality that is Safiya who would also present me with a complimentary bottle of water for my workout. The room itself is a good size. The bathroom has a separate bath and a walk-in rain shower. Housekeeping is attentive and efficient, both Mohammed A & Mohammed I were very helpful. The breakfast buffet requires some attention, it was lacking in content and not very inspiring. The breakfast service itself was also equally uninspiring. In this mediocre environment two individuals that stood out were Sultan and the lady chef, both were excellent and on point. The hotel links directly via a short indoor walkway into the Muscat Grand Mall where there is a food court with an array of international food outlets and a number of coffee shops and cafes. There is also a Carrefour supermarket in the mall which sells ready to eat hot food and snacks. The Al Rifai nuts concession in the Grand Mall is worth checking out. Oman Avenues Mall and a LuLu Hypermarket are within a short walk. The LuLu also serves ready to eat hot food/snacks. If you have your own transport the local drive-in cafe/fast food establishments are pretty good and deliver a hot cup of Karak Chai directly to your car. Overall I enjoyed my stay and I would stay at this hotel again.

Chammod pool attendant welcomed as with warm regard and assisted with anything we need,in the gym amazing gentleman called Muhamed , he was always there anytime we needed something. Very professional. Amazing experience can’t wait to come back.

Hotel looks nice on the outside but you’ll see lots of thing waiting for you. When we arrived in the hotel we see that the people who are working at reception were nice but doesn’t give the basic information about the hotel unless you ask lots of questions. Nothing was explained. Then we switched to our room by ourselves and found out there was a bottle of water which already had been used. Thankfully the Bellboy helped us and solved the problem, we appreciate him. He is the guy who saves receptions lack of information and lack of interest. After relaxing a little we decided to have some air at the restaurant area which is the only place that has open area. But no one cares what you asked or even doesn’t bother coming and asking you as if you’d like to have something. And that’s our first 30 minutes unfortunately. We booked for 3 nights and we’ll see what’s going to happen next. Maybe it’s just our experience.

We had a very nice stay in the hotel in muscat, and every one there was very kind, precisely in the restaurant, the staff was so nice, I shall precise: Shaker, Denmark, and Guenish. The food was good and variant. Thank you so much for the very high hospitality.

The staff is great, attentive, full of little touches throughout our stay which are a pleasure. The chef is incredibly kind, his dishes are very good. A big thank you to Nancy, chef Hemraj and the restaurant manager. We had a great stay.

Everything from the moment we checked-in till we left, was perfect the staff were really cheerful and welcoming, rooms are amazing, facilities were beautiful the food was so delicious. I simply enjoyed my stay and would definitely comeback and recommend the hotel to my friends

Amazing time spent at the Ritz. Feeling like royalty as you step in as it was previously the Sultan’s palace. After a day of adventuring you feel as you’ve entered a haven of peace. The staff was helpful, elegant, and really trying to satisfy every need. They also have one of the best Chinese gastronomic restaurants I have tasted. My favorite amenities were available as they are supplied by Diptyque. Last but not least the location takes your breath away, from the poolside and beachside.

Jumeirah in Oman must be the most satisfying hotel I have ever stayed in so far. The whole family is full of praises. It's rare to give a hotel full marks in terms of hardware, service, and environment. It's truly impeccable. The staff are very welcoming and responsive. The room is very clean and tidy. Everything is wonderful. The hotel is located next to a natural rock and beach, surrounded by mountains and seas. Under the bright sun, nature integrates the hotel into a natural scenery. When entering the room, I was amazed by the sea view in front of me. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the natural interest is used as a visual extension of the indoor space, bringing the aura of nature into the indoor atmosphere. You won't feel monotonous when you stay here without leaving home. You can go to the hotel swimming pool and beach at any time, order a drink on the lounge chair and enjoy sunbathing, or take a dip in the sea, which is comfortable and comfortable.
