InterContinental Muscat by IHG

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."
