The FINANCIAL — IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group) has opened Holiday Inn Muscat Al Seeb in the heart of capital’s new business district, making it the third IHG hotel in the city, according to IHG.
Brought to the city by Action Hotels, the opening marks the return of the one of the world’s most recognised hotel brands to Oman.
The hotel is located within ten minutes’ drive of Muscat International Airport and next to the new centres of business and government, perfect for business travellers on a tight schedule or families looking for a convenient stay in the serenity of Al Seeb. The hotel is also close to some of the capital’s most popular tourist attractions, an easy journey away for business travellers with some downtime between meetings or leisure travellers wanting to explore Muscat’s best sites, including Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, the traditional souqs at Seeb and Muttrah and old Muscat.
The modern and sleek hotel has 185 rooms, each with a 32-inch LED TV, an iPod docking station and access to free Wi-Fi services. A comfortable workspace in the rooms offers a relaxing and spacious environment, with views over the outdoor pool and terrace area. The hotel’s ballroom, boardroom and meeting rooms offer flexible spaces for customised events and meetings, catering for up to 250 people.
Guests have a choice of restaurants: the all-day dining restaurant Omede provides international cuisine throughout the day and the Halwa Lounge Café offers guests a real taste of Omani drinks and delicacies. Additionally, Holiday Inn Muscat Al Seeb operates Holiday Inn Hotels and Resort’s ‘Kids Stay and Eat Free’ programme, making travelling with all the family easier to manage. Guests looking to unwind after a long day will enjoy the hotel’s gym and outdoor pool facilities, according to IHG.
