Staff were super friendly and helpful. We arrived late but we were upgraded to a bigger room - the baby crib was already there and prepared, and they set up an extra bed fairly quickly and nicely immedietly after being requested, and they also gave us late check-out without being so stingy and pushy about it. The place was also clean and very well-maintained. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was clean, everything worked. We even let our 8 month old crawl in the bedroom, as a testment of how we felt about the cleanliness of the hotel. There was a children's play room, which had a summer camp ongoing, so we left our daughter to play there with a lot of kids for a few hours and it was super safe, engaging, and fantastic for her, absolutely wonderful. Facilities are top notch for the price we paid, including gym, pool, etc, and a great executive lounge at the top floor, which had snacks, fruits, and refreshments. The place felt lively and joyful, it is unfortionate we were staying for only one night.

Our first visit to Oman and Muscat and I would say, without a doubt, the very best place to stay there. The hotel was superb from beginning to end and a lovely, helpful, welcoming and accommodating staff. We booked a premium room with balcony and Seaview, and it certainly did not disappoint. It had great facilities, was cleaned and attended to daily, and was spotless. It had a super balcony, with chairs and footstools to relax in the evening time. The breakfast was lovely with a great variety of cooked and fresh produce on offer each day. We ate in both Come Prima Italian Restaurant and Dukes Bar Restaurant in the evenings and the food was delicious, with great service also. The shuttle bus, which takes you into town either in the morning or evening is very useful, as parking is at a premium in the old city, although we did drive in on one evening and got lucky with a parking space on the Corniche. We used the shuttle on our first evening to go visit the Mutrah Souq and it was so convenient. The pools and sunbeds are fantastic, allowing for a very relaxing time during the day if you wish to just pass away the hours soaking up the sun. The private beach, accessible by a set of steps, is also quite secluded. Would definitely recommend this hotel for any stay in Muscat. While it is classified 4*, it has everything that would merit 5"! We enjoyed every moment. A memorable break in Oman.

FAQs about hotels in Muscat

Middle East’s Best Kept Secret

An enchanting Arabic jewel, Muscat was already an important port in the 1st century. With a strict building code that imposes respect to heights and styles, the city has developed a harmonized and traditional look that makes it irresistible. Don’t miss the traditional Muttrah Souq marketplace, considered one of the best in the region.

The city is actually composed of three towns: Muscat is the walled Old Town where royal palaces are located; Muttrah includes the old and new harbours and the Corniche seafront; and Ruwi is the commercial and diplomatic area. Check out the Muscat hotels map on Booking.com and choose your preferred location!

The city is surrounded by the Western Al Hajar Mountains, and the crystalline waters and sandy beaches of the Arabian Sea. Staying in a Muscat hotel on the beach is a great way to enjoy the beautiful Gulf of Oman views.

The modern and elegant Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque is one of the largest in the world. Don’t miss the twin forts of Al Jalali and Al Mirani, and the Qasr Al Alam Royal Palace.

Before departing to Muscat International Airport, check the deals for hotels, resorts, and B&B’s available on Booking.com!

I was pleasantly surprised how nice Muscat is!

I was pleasantly surprised how nice Muscat is! The roads are not extremely busy, it has a diverse scenery (mountain, beach, tourist attractions, etc). The taxi drivers I hired were all nice and friendly. it's nice to arrive to a country and be met with friendliness and welcoming gestures. I hope to come back again one of these days.

Very impressed with our first visit to Muscat and Oman.

Very impressed with our first visit to Muscat and Oman. Good hotels at good value and great food at great value. We rented a car from NAB rentacar which was delivered to the hotel. Didn't use taxis. Bought a SIM card from Omantel at the airport for use with our portable wi-fi router so we could navigate around ourselves. If you want a spectacular world class, 4x4 low range track up to Jebel Shams get the gps track from Wikiloc - Rustaq to Shams. Not for the fainthearted! Our Mitsubishi Montero Sport on worn factory tyres managed easily.

Muscat is more authentic than places like Dubai and Qatar, and a lot more laid back. It isn't expensive (its a lot cheaper than Dubai) and there is a lot to do. The main mosque is very impressive and the day trips to the islands for snorkelling are good. The main souq is also very good

The country offers variety of attractions, landscapes and community. Each place is unique and captivating. The citizens are inviting and non-judgmental. They are willing to chat with you and give you tips on where to visit and where to eat etc. I NEVER VISITED A COUNTRY THAT SMELLS SO GREAT. Oman has a unique smell of oud fragrance from the airport into the streets, malls, hotels. It is a more relaxing Middle East compare to Dubai and other countries.

Muscat is a wonderful jewel in the middle east, retaining its old charm yet modern amenities for tourists fond of nature and history. People with their warmth and hospitality are the real treasure of Oman. Sun - Sand - Sea makes your stay scintillating.

It was one of the best service in a hôtel that I could get. Thank you to all the team present. I absolutely recommend Maani Hotel for your trip to Oman. Hassan and his team are outstanding! Extremely polite, professional, and always smiling. They handled my car with great care and returned it spotless, fast and perfectly done. Hassan’s leadership and the team’s dedication are truly commendable. If you want a stress-free and smooth stay, this valet parking is a must Simply the best

I stayed at five different accommodations during my trip to Oman, and this hotel offered the best value for money. The room was spacious and very clean, with a nice bathroom, a modern design, and all the amenities one could need. The breakfast was very good, with plenty of vegan and vegetarian options, and there were many free parking spots available.

It was a good price and location in Muscat and provided the basic necessities for a trip to Oman. The breakfast was great and the staff were very friendly and willing to help. They even let me check in early when I got to the hotel early after a quick landing at the airport.

The location is Greatttt but the hotel is very dated. They did some renovations recently but its bot worth the money at all unless u want a hotel on the beach then its worth it because you wont find similar prices for a good hotel on the beach in Oman theyre very expensive.

We spent 12 days in Oman as a family, traveling and staying in 6 hotels. This one was the best of all and the pool was on the roof! I highly recommend - 4☆ comfort!
