I really enjoyed my 5-night stay in January 2010. I had a tastefully appointed room on the 6th floor with flat-panel TV, sitting area, writing desk, and renovated bathroom with a generous supply of soaps/lotions/shampoos and other amenities. My room was exceptionally quiet. Free wired internet was available in the room, but it was often quite slow. I also enjoyed... more

We spent Christmas at the Intercontinental. The first thing that catches your eye is the giant Christmas tree in the lobby. It must have been about 10 meters high. Wreaths were hung on all the floors and Christmas music was playing in the lifts. Are we really in the Middle East? Every room got a complimentary Yule log cake on... more

Having read some of the recent reviews before staying at the Intercontinental Muscat, I was apprehensive. We stayed there for 7 nights after Christmas and I was relieved to find it better than expected. Yes the building looks like a giant multi storey car park and is dated but inside we found it pleasant and clean. The grounds are extensive... more

We stayed at the Intercontinental for a few nights over Christmas. The hotel is fine for people who look for comfort, do not mind paying a (relative) lot of money for the food, and want to relax at the pool. We had a large room with view of the autoway. Even if we had wanted to we could not sit... more

We stayed in the Intercontinental on our road trip along the Omani coast with the children. This is a very average hotel- it is old and dated,the cleanliness is average (our balcony was full of bird waste), and the staff on the telephone and at the reception desk were chilly. There was a great issue about the fact that the... more

Stayed in the Intercontential for over two weeks on business. As mentioned previously the hotel is in the diplomatic area of Muscat. The Hotel is also used my many airlines for cabin crew so there is a bit of scenary occassionally :-). Upon entering the hotel is there is a large open foyer, (traditional arabian style) good for light and... more

Located in the Diplomatic Quarters, this resort hotel is what you would expect from an Intercon, with a few surprises. There is no WiFi in the room. The business center sells overpriced Internet access. There is an excellent gym on site. Beware of loud music until late at nights and lawn mowers at 5 am. more

This hotel is conveniently located in the Diplomatic Quarter. The hotel, its rooms, its pool and surrounding grounds, and its spa are all showing their age. That being said, I had a lovely stay at the hotel largely because of its ideal location (on the water) and variety of restaurants/bars. I ordered room service nearly every night for an entire... more

Stayed here for our 20th wedding anniversary. Arrived at 6am after a quick flight from Doha(we live there). Thought we would see if they would allow us to check in early as after allmy husband is platinum priority club holder and we had booked a Club room. We handed in the booking confirmation and the guy on reception gave us... more
