Standing amid a beautiful enclave within Oman’s capital city of Muscat, a prominent building overlooks a serene beach in the form of the InterContinental Muscat hotel.
This renowned international 5-star accommodation is the perfect lodging for those who prefer to remain close to an area that is not too crowded and yet not far from a variety of restaurants, cafés, and a whole slew of other lifestyle options.
It is also strategically located by a beach within the gulf of Oman and just opposite the famous Royal Opera House and other well-know buildings in Muscat.
Getting to the hotel from the airport is also very easy as it takes about 30 minutes from the Muscat International Airport to the city via taxi.
Upon checking in, guests can also help themselves to dates and tea prepared at the reception area.
The area also overlooks the main atrium which offers a spectacular interior design which looks even more majestic from the glass elevator leading to the rooms and restaurant.
The hotel property boasts a range of accommodations consisting spacious bedrooms and suites that comes with stylishly appointed interiors alongside modern amenities. Guests can also enjoy a range of business and leisure facilities within the hotel during their stay.
Living up to its image as a prestigious 5-star property, the rooms are naturally, equipped with the required necessities like complimentary internet access complete with various satellite TV channels.
Guests can also spend their time working out at their gym or experience the pool while enjoying the stunning serenity of Muscat.
As for dining options, the hotel is never short of choices as they include Tr.Eat for light meals and delicious pastries, Tomato, Italian restaurant, Musandam, all-day dining, Al Ghazal Pub, an original English pub, Mynah’s Edge for Traditional Arabic cuisine and of course Trader Vic’s, their award-winning French Polynesian restaurant.
One of the main highlights however, is the auspicious Musandam restaurant. It is the hotel’s newly renovated ‘piece de resistance’ which offers all-day dining with some of the best local and international dishes.
Inspired by the Musandam Governorate which is separated from the rest of Oman by the United Arab Emirates, the restaurant boasts a fresh interior design with bright colours and a vibrant ambience.
Clearly, The InterContinetal Muscat makes guests feel right at home, and perhaps many would be tempted to extend their duration of lodging. Truly, the practicality and comfort provided by the hotel would always remind guests to come back during their next visit to Muscat!
