Overall this place is in a time warp. Has a depressing run down feel to it. Major maintenance issues. Taps leaking, smelly drains, shocking decor. The staff were friendly enough. The dinner was nice and tasty, would probably recommend the Indian options and breakfast big hearty overdone serves. Needs a smarten up but adequate for an overnight stay.
We didn't stay in the Hotel , just gone to inquiry about the Hotel , they have a Beautiful view , staff are friendly... the Hotel looks clean .the weather is cold in summer and freezing in winter.....
Amazing location and picture square place. Now the question is do you want to stay there for night....we made a wrong decision as in night only you can see the star (which was really nice). This property was plan very nicely but over price considering the Omani rate. may be due to eid or as it was on top of mountain. Also they have a poor maintenance. But the staff is very reasonable and helpful. You can do camping around this place.
Pros: 1. Location is superb with several easy walks to gorgeous viewpoints of the mountains 2. Rooms are large and spacious and a fridge/boiler kettle with coffee/tea is provided. 3. Games room offer a snooker table and chess etc which is good as there is not much to do in the evening. Cons: 1. Breakfast is poor in terms of options and quality. 2. Restaurant is expensive by Omani standards and portions are also smaller than average. Food is not exceptional given the price 3. Wifi is only at reception and is not really reliable (connection is on and off). 3. Reception is not open between 10pm to 8am 4. The hotels' listing at booking.com mentioned that credit cards were allowed as a use of payment but the reception refused to let us pay using credit cards, which is problematic as this is a mountainous area with no ATMs/moneychangers nearby. We later saw that the restaurant has a credit card payment machine and they allowed guests to pay using credit cards. In the end we had to pay using our spending cash, which was not a good experience, as we had not budgeted for paying the hotel in cash.…
