Liked: Cleanliness
Could have been better
First upon arrival tried to say reservation was for only one and wanted more money. This hotel has all the facilities for a very good hotel but the room maintenance left a lot to be desired- didn’t clean bathroom some days, soap was inadequate, tv difficult to operate, breakfast buffet left something to be desired- and Saran Wrap covered dishes instead of covered bowls. Coffee was only instant.

Not too far from the beach. Clean, comfortable, good selection of restaurants near by, as is the Avenues Mall of Oman. The pool area was often very quiet which meant it was nice and relaxing. The WiFi came and went in the room.

Great location and good overall
Hotel staff are friendly and helpful. WiFi need to improvements as we just couldn't get online in our room most of the time. Breakfast was nice and varied each day which was a nice surprise. The fitness 'centre' needs an upgrade, but useful for thr one time I used it and the pool is a nice touch, but as the beach is so close, you're better off going there. Location is excellent, 10 mins from the Grand Mosque, 15 mins from the Opera House, 30 mins from the port, and for other places of interest we didn't need more than half an hour planning time. Plenty of food choices locally and only a few mins away from Avenues and Muscat Grand Mall for additional food places.

Considering you need a car in Muscat, then the location is fine. Muscat is very spread out so it doesn't really matter where you stay. Has a convenience store right opposite which is very useful.

Great Stay
I recently returned from a most enjoyable stay at Al Maha.The room was large ,very comfortable bed,and the housekeeping staff kept it spotlessly clean. All the staff went out of their way to be helpful and accommodating.... and always with a smile. I have to make a special mention to the lovely Susan on reception!From the moment I arrived she was so helpful and no matter how busy she always had time to answer questions with her knowledge of the surrounding area ...thankyou Susan. I will definitely return to Al Maha......very soon I hope

Nice hotel for what you pay
Noisy air condition in the room, bed lamps of the sockets, very poor breakfast ( far for being fit for international people )
