I paid way too much for this place but the City was over booked due to the Olympic torch and conferences. I did get a room with a balcony - looks like the pic, and the view was wonderful and unbeatable. I saw a sandstorm coming in from the mountains, while looking out at the sea. The rooms are clean,... more

Decent , up to standard CP hotel in an amazing location. Better located for a holiday than business, it is worth the easy drive in and out of the city to stay here. more

My wife and I recently spent 18 days on a driving/camping holiday in Oman. We stayed at three locations in Muscat during our travels to refresh and rest up for a day or two, including the Oman Dive Center and Shangri-La (see separate reviews). We spent one night in the Crowne Plaza. Firstly, I am suprised at some of the... more

We were delighted to have chosen the Crowne Plaza for a getaway break for a few days to escape the British winter monotony! The staff could not have been more helpful or more welcoming - they really went to town on making sure we enjoyed our stay. Our airline managed to lose our luggage but the Receptionist and the Concierge... more

We liked the hotel and the Omani weather in December. True, the hotel is a little pricy and forms a mix of business and holiday hotel. The rooms were kept clean, though sometimes rather late in the afternoon. Beautifull fitnessroom with great instructor Hanifah! Staff acted wonderful with medicare when my mothers foot was hurt, due to raizorsharp shells on... more

Stayed from 25th December to 30th December on Club Level. Room. 610, top floor Decor okay but dull [ and this was a re-furbed room], very clean and kept very clean, only one easy chair chair for two people, mini-bar/fridge, iron ironing board, tea and coffee, kettle, robes,slippers. Requested sunny balcony, got balcony facing town[ great view], but no sun,... more

Just a warning keep away from room 511. It is next to what appears to be a plant room which when operating makes the room shake. Other than the above the hotel was OK but rather expensive for the class of hotel. The staff however are excellent. more

A disappointing stay. I've stayed at this hotel several times over the last few years on business and on pleasure This last time was a big disappointment. The hotel is in a great location with views over teh sea from a clifftop and great sunset views. However, it's in need of refurbishment and a change of staff and management. It... more

Crowne Plaza - This is a much older property (I'm guessing that it may have been one of Muscat's first resort hotels) and it's design reflects this. However, it's position is wonderful. It sits on top of a cliff with views the Chedi would die for! However, the staff there are really great - friendly, helpful, cheerful and willing to... more
