Located within 3.4 km of Muscat Gate Museum and 100 metres of Old Watch Tower, Fort Guesthouse نُزل القلعة provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Muscat. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The guest house features family rooms as well as facilities for disabled guests.

The location is perfect for the harbour and waterfront. Whilst close to everything it is so peaceful and quiet. The rooms are beautiful and I loved the shower. Breakfast on the rooftop terrace was superb and our host made sure we had everything we could want. Wish we could have stayed longer and would most certainly come back.

Featuring sea views, Turquaze Guesthouse offers accommodation with a private beach area and a balcony, around 2.5 km from Al Sifah Beach. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is set 46 km from Central Business District.

The owner is so hospitable and helpful. The views are just breathtaking. The sunrise is amazing with the sea view. The apartment is equipped with everything you need and more. It was very clean when we checked in. The pool is a few meters away with a view of the water and beach - it’s a stoney beach but softer sand can be found if you keep walking along the coast. Overall, a hidden gem in a beautiful small town.

    We loved Fort Guesthouse! The contactless check in was easy, the place was spotless, rooms lovely. Great location right near the fort and plenty of free parking just a minute walk away. Medium-sized fridge, some coffee / tea / water, towels & hand towel, hair dryer etc. Nice rain shower too, and well-placed power outlets beside the beds, too. The hosts were so lovely, and we enjoyed a filling and delicious breakfast with a view on the sunny terrace above. Breakfast was 6 rials for two of us. I would definitely stay here again.

    Great location in the centre area of town and right next to the Muscat Opera House. Met by our lovely host and shown to the apartment. Crossiants and a large bowl of fruit set out and a spare toothbrush and toothpaste in case we had forgotten ours. Fridge was full of bottled water so we were well set up. Downstairs in the boutique mall are coffee shops and restaurants and taxis available out the front door.

    Ashmat was a great host and we had a good time at Fort Guesthouse. Everything was really clean, breakfast at the roof terrace is so nice and the location is perfect to visit Mutrah. We arrived in the middle of the night and checkin with a code was really easy.

    Great location in the middle of the Wadi, you can really relax and get to know the surrounding area and other guests if you want to. Very friendly host which gave us excellent tips, and a great dinner and breakfast buffet. The surrounding area is very quiet and great for stargazing if you move a bit away from the lights. For the love of god, don’t trust Google Maps on how to get there, especially if you don’t habe a 4X4, rather message the host who can give a much better description of how to get there.
