Intercontinental Muscat

In the centre of the action in Muscat’s residential and government centre.

Intercontinental Muscat offers a range of classically-appointed rooms and suites, some with their own balconies and floor-to-ceiling windows granting views of the Muscat skyline, the craggy mountains or the coastline on the doorstep.

Be it Mexican, Mai Tais or Mediterranean that you’re after, Intercontinental Muscat has a collection of bars, restaurants and even an authentic English-style pub to cater to whatever you fancy. The Intercontinental has an extensive beach club with swimming pools, tennis and squash courts, perched on the edge of the beach that the hotel overlooks.

Muscat’s Grand Mosque is one of the largest in the Middle East and is home to a prayer carpet weighing more than 21 tonnes, which took over four years to produce! For a crash course in local history and culture, pay a visit to the Bait Al Zubair Museum in the old town and take a pre-dinner stroll along the beach to work up an appetite.
