My daughter's graduation party was at the Intercontinental Muscat. So I flew in and took advantage of an attractive weekend, low season rate at the Intercon. We liked our stay quite a lot. The rooms are in need of some renovation but staff are nice and efficient. Tomato and Senor Pico restaurants are very nice at reasonable prices. The airline... More

Continuing to choose this hotel when I am here on business, this time an extended stay. Hotel is very intimate for a big hotel - the staff are outstanding in that they are knowledgeable, friendly and just very good - this extends from reception to Club Lounge and the bars. Hotel is right in the centre of things and ideal... More

The Intercontinental Hotel Muscat, is a good place to stay if you consider the Money value, but definitely needs more attention for improvement to keep with the levels of Intercontinental hotels in the Gulf Areas. The location is great with many shops and cafe around. The room size is reasonable with all the necessary things available and the bed was... More

Despite being an Ambassador and Platinum Member the welcome I received was poor,to the extent that the receptionist said that the hotel didnt recognise either scheme(Wrong!) Fortunately, the Duty Manager quickly recovered the situation after he was promptly called in... The rest of the stay is how one would expect - great food and entertainment throughout the hotel. Another great... More

We stayed in this hotel with our 6 year old daughter for the first week of April this year, we had a fantastic time. The location of the hotel is perfect, escpecially when you compare to similar hotels like the Crowne Plaza which has nothing nearby. The Intercontinental is close to the beach, shops, cafés and restaurants. We asked for... More

Yes, the hotel was built over 40 years ago and it might not be as modern and 'swish' as others but it has charm and elegance. The staff are very friendly and delighted to help.
