Top Sultan's Armed Forces Museum Hotel Reviews

Jumeirah Muscat Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel - got some minor issues in the room but the staff came around and fix it very quickly."

InterContinental Muscat by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Modern, spacious rooms and bathroom. Finally a hotel that has a heated bathroom mirror so NO FOGGING when you get out of the shower. Nespresso and water in rooms. Comfy mattress and pillows. Fantastic Omani coffee and dates in the lobby. Well equipped gym and expansive pool area with direct access to the beach. Wonderful but expensive breakfast. Hotel is 10 min walk to Opera House but you’ll need a taxi to visit other sites."

Mandarin Oriental, Muscat

8/10 Good

"Our stay unfortunately began with a terrible check-in experience - two of our assigned rooms were infested with bugs. Given the luxury reputation of the Mandarin Oriental brand, this left a massive sour taste in our mouths. To their credit, management handled it as expected, promptly offering alternative rooms so we could settle in. Once resolved, our stay genuinely got much better... Concierge: absolute standouts! Exceptionally friendly and guided us through Muscat with fantastic local insights. Rooms: spacious, comfortable, and beautifully designed with the perfect balance of modern luxury and chic Omani touches. Spa & Lobby: the hotel lobby is stunning, and the spa lived up to the Mandarin's legendary service - flawless execution. Location: ideal for excursions and only 10–15 minutes from key city center attractions. Dining & Gym: the breakfast buffet was a standard 5-star spread, and the gym was a bit underwhelming/missing some standard equipment, but fine for a quick workout. Despite the initial hygiene lapse at check-in, the overall hardware, spa, location, and outstanding concierge service turned our trip around. I would still recommend it over other top Muscat luxury options."

Crowne Plaza Muscat by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Exceptional personnel, very polite. good breakfast but what’s best is the pool and having a private beach downstairs makes a huge difference. Cozy and elegant. Great experience"

Mutrah Hotel

8/10 Good

"A decent budget option near Muttrah. I did think Muttrah would have more to offer tourists but it is lacking so if I came again I would stay near Qurum beach. This hotel was fine and the staff helpful. There is a club on friday/ Saturday night however it's not as bad as reviewers say. Maybe ask for a higher floor room. Room itself was fine and bed comfortable. Nice hot shower."
