We were tired, hot and dusty after our 4x4 journey from Muscat up into the mountains and we found ourselves in a charming, characterful oasis. With two welcome pools in which to dip or lie beside taking in the last of the day's sunshine, it is very restful and relaxing. Rooms, which are large and comfortable, face onto the pool... More

Having had some negative feedback from some friends who stayed here last year I only booked this place last minute as our plans had changed. Pleasantly surprised overall by a well laid out, attractive hotel with good size rooms, the usual (for Oman) friendly service, but decidedly average food. Seems to be a fixture on the escorted tours route with... More

Hotel booked by travel agent. Very nice room walking out onto the 2 swimmingpools where the water is refreshing but warmish. Dinner outside next to pool in good atmosfere. Staff friendly. Buffet breakfast good quality. Start with nice dates and coffee at reception. Aircon maybe a bit noisy.

Our travel agents did not rave about the Falaj Daris. They should have done. Amongst all the plaes we stayed in Oman, this was the frienddliest, cleanest, and the most welcoming, and the food was excellent. It could do with being done up a bit- the bathrooms are a bit small, and the furnishings a bit faded. But the pools... More

Unfortunately it seems some of the negative reviewers have axes to grind about this hotel or have unrealistic expectations. We stayed here for two nights and it proved to be a convenient and comfortable place from which to explore the area. Its main plus point was that it had a relaxing and calm ambience and had well maintained gardens surrounding... More

I agree with most if what us written in other reports. This hotel makes its money from tour groups. There weren't enough towels by the pool and no one to ask for one. Internet costs a lot extra, breakfast was very average. The room was fine and there was plenty of warm water. Wouldn't recommend it but its near the... More

What can I say that is any good about the Falaj Daris Hotel in Nizwa. BecauseI live in Nizwa, I used to go there every week-end to eat and drink. I have stopped going because they never have anything in stock and the staff are useless. The service is appalling and, if you complain to the reception or manager, the... More

These days, most hotel guests need internet access as much as they need a bed in their room. It is a cheek to charge extra for internet. I realize it costs money to set up a hotel network, but surely an extra R1 to R2 on the room rates would compensate and avoid all the frustration of having to pay... More

We stayed overnight at the hotel and although not the most modern hotel the rooms were clean,comfortable and spacious.We had trouble with mosquitos in our room but easily rectified with a call to reception and a can of spray.We opted for the restaurant for dinner (only guests eating there)rather than the buffet.Meals were of a good standard and menu was...
