4-Star Hotels in Muscat

The room was comfortable and the air conditioning was excellent. The blackout curtains were a real highlight. Parking is free. The breakfast spread was quite good, and the staff were all very friendly. We stayed for three days. It's very close to both the airport and the mosque. There's a gas station right outside.

The location is not really in the city center; however, there are still many amenities, restaurants, shops, etc., within walking distance. Many malls are nearby, but transportation is required. You will need to rent a car to move around and visit tourist attractions, which are a bit far. The hotel is like a 5-star hotel with a swimming pool, gym, restaurant, etc. The studio apartment is spacious with still-new-looking furniture, and the toilet is nice and sparkling clean. The shower water pressure and hot water are good; I kept looking forward to a hot shower after a day out. It has a complete kitchen with all cutlery, a microwave, a kettle, etc. (no washing machine though unlike other hotel in the same group). The bed was good and comfy, and I had an excellent sleep after a tiring day. I booked the studio for 6 days and 5 nights with breakfast. The breakfast was superb, mainly continental with limited variety. However, it started to get boring on the third day as there was no change to the menu except for 2-3 dishes. The communication and services by the hotel were excellent, very responsive and prompt. I requested toiletries, drinking water, etc., a few times, and they were provided promptly. In summary, I consider it a good hotel with excellent services.

A solid stay that lives up to Novotel standards. The staff were very nice, check‑in was smooth, and they helped with my suitcase and getting settled in the room. The room itself was clean and comfortable. The location is convenient — about 10 minutes by taxi to the airport, which was perfect as I had a very early flight. Check‑out was fast, and the staff helped book a taxi for 8 OMR. It’s more expensive than using OTAXI, the local taxi app, but expected for hotel-arranged transport. I also had dinner at the hotel, which was good, though priced at a premium compared to outside — again, normal for hotels. Overall, a very good stay and I recommend it.

The hotel's location is great, but the service was a bit slow. Parking is available in the B2 underground garage, but there's no direct elevator, so you have to carry your luggage up one floor, which is quite inconvenient. Breakfast on the M floor was just okay; the fruit selection was poor – overripe watermelon, very sour pomelo, and decent cantaloupe. Room cleanliness was subpar, with noticeable black stains on the pillowcase. The bathtub drain was clogged, so I had to turn off the water frequently while showering to let it drain.

This hotel offers incredible value for money! From the polite and friendly male staff in hats and robes at the front desk, to the equally courteous boys in shirts and trousers in the restaurant and guest rooms, everyone was wonderful. The hotel is quite close to the airport, so you do see planes flying overhead occasionally, but overall, it's surprisingly quiet. I was even given a free upgrade to a partial sea-view room. We had dinner at the hotel, and their seafood paella or fish rice (the fish rice was slightly spicy) was absolutely delicious and huge! It was packed with large shrimp and fresh, boneless chunks of fish. The rice grains felt two or three times longer than regular rice! When we checked out, I asked the front desk to help me call an Uber, which ended up being so much cheaper! Thank you!

Excellent stay, the room was very spacious. Plus, they offer smoking rooms. Free parking is a huge plus, there was always a spot available no matter when we returned. The front desk staff was very welcoming. There's even complimentary chilled bottled water in the lobby. The room also came with its own refrigerator.

Room and bed are comfy. Breakfast is great, nice to experience Arabian food. Hotel is located in centre of Muscat near Ruwi bus station where you could get the bus no. 4 for visiting Mutrah Fort and market, or bus no. 1 or A1 to visit Sultan Qaboos Grand Moque, which is located along the way back to airport.

I really enjoyed staying here. My room was spacious & clean. Great facilities- teas, coffee, body lotion, shampoo, conditioner, bottled water etc replenished daily. Bed was big and comfy. Great location- 5-10min walk to cafes/restaurants (some local shops next to the car park). I relaxed around the pool everyday in the winter sun. Just what I needed. Staff were friendly. Breakfast -had a huge variety, cereal, cold meats, cheeses, omletes, pastries, etc I would recommend this hotel (&would stay here again). I stayed here from Boxing Day to New year's Eve- they had a decorated an Xmas tree inside & outside the hotel, how fabulous! 😊 Great effort. I ate/drank at the Irish pub, it was nice enough (typical English food lol) I'm a female solo traveller i never felt unsafe here, in fact, I was looked after, from going out in the evenings to catching a Yango. Thank you Muscat, Oman 😊 Superb stay

I felt it was worth the price. The facilities were reasonably clean, so I was satisfied, and the staff were generally nice, so it was fine. However, there were three things that bothered me. 1. I stayed for two nights, and neither night were there any towels provided, so I had to ask them to bring them each time. I was surprised as this was the first time that towels had been left behind two nights in a row. 2. The bathroom had a slight sewage smell, which bothered me. 3. I had signed up for a tour, and was meeting someone in the lobby, where I was approached by someone pretending to be from a tour company. I eventually realized it was a fake, but the woman at the front desk had seen the whole thing (and even talked to me), and instead of scolding me, she continued to talk to me in a friendly manner. The way I was approached was ”Are you signing up for a tour?” When I answered ”Yes,” the scammer asked me, ”Are you going to Nizwa? I'm the tour driver. How much is the tour?” Even though I said I had already paid, the scammer asked me how much it cost and insisted on taking me there. Please be careful if you are staying here.

The hotel is located in a good location. The city is not meant for walking but you can actually walk to the very big mall called Oman Avenues Mall which also has IKEA. Room is quite nice except the bathroom that has a lot of visible mold on the ceiling. Service at check-in is good and staff is friendly.
