Tout était parfait, particulièrement le professionnalisme et la gentillesse du personnel

Fantastic!
Pros:

- The employees are super kind, proactive and attentive
- The location is beautiful, next to the beach. We loved the garden with our little 1 year old baby
- The food offering is good!

Cons:

- Some parts of the hotel can use a bit of love to make it more modern and in line with luxury 5* standards of today. Said that, the price-quality level of this hotel is very well balanced.

February Break to Muscat
Pros:

We have recently returned from a week long break during February half term. We spent 7.days at this lovely hotel.

Firstly we flew with Oman Air out of T4 at Heathrow. Despite a few reservations based ona few reviews I read we had nothing to worry about. Aircraft was spacious in economy and the flight was absolutely fine. We were there in 6hrs 5mins!

OTaxi from airport to hotel was 10 Omani (£20) - half an hour journey.

Tip - download OTaxi app - use lile Uber. Really cheap and best way to get around Muscat.

Hotel is lovely. Atrium is amazing and rooms spacious and well equipped.

Pool and outside space equally as good.

We used some IHG points to.books so went room.only and added breakfast. We then ate as we went... sometimes in the hotel and other times out and about.

These is a nice square of restaurants and cafes adjacent to the hotel (to the left as u look at the sea) where ypu can get drinks and food from if you dont want to pay hotel.prices but the hotel wasn't extortionate £60 for the family at lunch in tomotp so £15 a head (including drinks).

We ventured out a bit. Grand Mosque, Mall.of.Oman and Mutrah Fort./Souq All well.worth a visit.

All in all this was a lovely family break with high 20s temperatures to warm you up whilst it rains in the UK. Highly recommended when the region settles.down again.

Finally, Ramadan started on the Thursday we were there. For Westerns just remain respectful of their religion and abide by there practices. Ypu can of course eat if u so wish in the hotel just be mindful.when out and about.

Wonderful Iftar experience
Pros:

I had a wonderful experience at the restaurant in the InterContinental Hotel during their Iftar buffet. The buffet was truly impressive, offering a rich variety of dishes that catered to different tastes. Everything was beautifully presented, fresh, and full of flavor. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it a perfect place to enjoy Iftar with family and friends.

A special thanks to Faisal and Hudhaifa for their outstanding service and warm hospitality, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable Iftar experience with excellent food and great hospitality.

Great hotel, comfortable and clean
Pros:

The property looked better than the pictures on the website. The bedroom is quite modern and spacious, very clean and comfortable. Nice bathroom, great shower with pressured and warm water. The lobby is comfortable to chill or work from there, with a small coffee on the corner to have some bites. The restaurants are amazing - prices are fair, and the quality surprised me. The pool is very nice, but the beach in front of the hotel doesn't have any infrastructure. Overall, the hotel was aligned with my expectations since it's not a cheap option. The opera is at walking distance and you can have long walks from the beach to the city direction.
