An ancient crossroads of civilisations and cultures, Oman offers intrepid travellers the chance to engage with an Arab country that’s refreshingly humble. Its varied landscapes leave a treat for the eyes, with unspoiled stretches of coastline strewn with white-sand beaches. Mudbrick villages cling to the side of rocky valleys. Soaring mountain ranges are sliced with bottomless canyons, while the great Wahiba Sand Dunes seem to ripple endlessly into the desert. All this is spread across three huge regions. The northernmost is home to Muscat, Oman’s chaotic capital. Here you can find a myriad of old forts, grand mosques and royal palaces – some explorable on foot, others requiring a little more effort to reach. To escape the crowds, take a day trip to Nakhal Fort, a stone-carved citadel found at the foot of the Hajar Mountains. These towering peaks stretch all the way to the United Arab Emirates, hiding riverbed oases and jagged fjords. In the southern region, the palm-fringed beaches of Salalah make for an ideal retreat after the long, dusty journey down the coast. Accommodation options are aplenty here, with a range of hotel resorts and simple guesthouses to choose from in the bigger cities and coastal towns.

Guest review
The room was beautiful and super comfortable, with everything we needed. We received such a warm welcome; we honestly felt more at home than in a hotel. Communication was great, and the breakfast was spectacular. For the price, I would recommend this place in a heartbeat. In terms of value for money, I’d say it’s the best option in Muscat. It’s also close to most main attractions

This hotel is rather a villa which is perfect for families or groups of friends. Playground and self-catering facilities are very good and the owner / staff are more than helpful.
Spectacular surroundings.

Our stay at the Koofan heritage hotel was a memorable journey through time. It allowed us to appreciate the architectural beauty of the past while enjoying the comforts of the present.
If you're seeking a unique and immersive stay that combines history, culture, and comfort, a heritage hotel is an excellent choice. It's an opportunity to step back in time and create lasting memories.
Special thanks to manager Rahman, who was very polite, helpful and caring!
Highly recommend this place for a stay!

Everything was absolutely perfect — from the stunning rooms to the amazing service. The beds were out of this world — it felt like sleeping on a cloud, and I have never experienced anything so comfortable before.
Watching the most beautiful sunrise from my hotel window was an unforgettable experience — the sky was filled with breathtaking colors. I can’t wait to come back again!
