Disliked: Staff & service
This IG hotel is a family resort style place in a quiet part of the Muscat city beach zone. There are large hotel grounds with pools and a gym all lacking any type of useful directions. The hotel has placed a large surcharge on local taxi rides and there is no local bus service so transport around the city is expensive. The main problem with this hotel is the house-keeping service - poorly trained and understaffed - so any normal check in is very slow and often delayed due to rooms not being ready. The daily house-keeping is also slow and irregular. The hotel may suit family groups looking for an inclusive resort but it is not suitable for business travel.

I like that u can access the public beach frm the back entrance and then straight to restaurants and cafes. There is also a food truck right at the beach. The jacuzzi and indoor facilities were a little run down. During winter time its nice to stay indoor using the facilities.

This hotel would have received 5/5 had the first customer experience at check-in was annoying especially at a 5 star hotel which was selected purely for the customer experience one would expect. At reception both members of staff were serving a customer. My son and I stood partially behind both people to approach the first available member of staff. A couple approached the front desk and stood next to my son as soon as the staff member behind the desk was free they approached her in the meantime another gentleman stood behind them to be served. Instead of acknowledging that we had been waiting in the queue the staff member not only served the couple but also the gentleman behind them before acknowledging us with no apology. Absolutely appalling and not a good first impression.
