 Kempinski Hotel Muscat 

Beachfront glitz and glamour

A shiny newcomer shaking up the Muscat hotel scene with its striking design.

The cool architecture impresses as soon as you walk into the palatial lobby – all gleaming columns and acres of white marble. The Kempinski Hotel Muscat squares up to the Gulf of Oman in all its modern Arabic glory: large expanses of glass frame sea views and glorious arches soar high overhead.

Found in the leafy district of Al Mouj, you’re perfectly placed for an Omani getaway: the marble-clad Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque and stunning Royal Opera House are around 20 minutes away by car, while the international airport is half that drive.

There are two outdoor pools flanked by a bar and sun loungers, with more loungers dotted along the 6km-long beach. Here, you can kick back with a good book or sign up for watersports galore – wakeboarding, waterskiing, paddleboarding, kayaking and scuba diving.

Why we love Kempinski Hotel Muscat

  • Striking architecture and design yet just a short distance from Muscat's historical sites

  • The best of both worlds combining beach and city experiences and suitable for families and couples

  • Thai street food, North Indian specialities and sharing platters are just some of the options at the eleven dining venues

  • For the active there is a good range of water sports or for those seeking relaxation, unwind at the pools, on the beach or at the spa

This hotel is definitely one for foodies: it even has its own culinary concierge. The Kitchen is an all-day affair, from baked breakfast goods and punchy Arabian coffee, to platters of Middle Eastern delicacies and seafood heaped over ice.

Zale Club & Lounge is a cool hangout with a buzzy after-hours vibe – the perfect spot for a sundowner.
