Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful overall. The rooms, although a bit musty, provided a perfect view of the crystal clear waters. The service was exceptional, with the staff being professional and attentive. The location was outstanding, offering a spacious beach and pool area to relax. The dining experience had its ups and downs, but the Italian grilled meat was a highlight. The facilities were well-provisioned for a comfortable stay.
I'm an IHG Spire Elite member and a loyal guest of this hotel. Although the rooms are a bit old-fashioned and definitely need renovation, they were still clean and didn't have carpet, which I appreciated. However, the view of a construction site outside wasn't so appealing.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, while spacious and clean, felt a bit outdated and had a lingering smell of smoke. The service provided, especially in the Darbat restaurant, was exceptional with friendly and professional staff. The location was fantastic, central for exploring Salalah and offering a wonderful environment for leisurely walks, although the dining experience lacked variety despite the good quality. Overall, a decent value for money stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel offers a nice stay with spacious rooms, but the construction site may hinder the sea view. The rooms are a good size, inclusive of a pull-out sofa bed, although they were a bit musty and lacked a bathroom fan. The service was exceptional, especially at the restaurant. The location is perfect for families, close to Dareez Beach and other attractions. The dining experience was good overall, with a variety of international dishes. The facilities are well-provisioned and cater to both beach and pool preferences.
The hotel offers a pleasant stay with friendly staff and Arabian style furniture in the comfortable rooms. The location is good, especially for families, despite some dining limitations. Overall, the hotel provides good value for money.
