KEMPINSKI HOTEL MUSCAT

If you’re looking to escape Dubai’s hustle and bustle for a weekend staycation, jump onboard the short one-hour flight to Oman and you’ll soon arrive at this gorgeous beachfront property, just 10-minutes north of Muscat International Airport. Exuding grandeur from the get-go, the hotel welcomes guests with its modern, palace-like lobby design, which draws on inspiration from nature and ivory-colored water lilies. From its all-exposing glass exteriors, we catch a glimpse of the hotel’s infinity pool and a snippet of the 6km glimmering coastline from the check-in desk, before making our way to our home for the weekend.

Accommodation

There’s certainly no shortage of rooms at the Kempinski Muscat. Of the 310 spacious rooms and suites available, we’re staying in a Junior Suite during our two-night stay. The room is tastefully decorated with neutral tones and offers ample space for couples – with a large bedroom plus adjoining lounge, bathroom and separate dressing area. There’s no balcony, but the floor-to-ceiling windows offer sea views and plenty of natural light into the room. There’s complimentary soft drinks and snacks at the Executive Lounge for guests staying in a suite, plus use of the in-room Nespresso machine and fresh water that is replenished daily. For families looking to book a stay, the hotel offers interconnecting king and twinbed rooms. Alternatively, two additional beds can be arranged for the Grand Deluxe Suite – a spacious option including a large entrance foyer, fully equipped pantry, powder room, and a lounge with a separate living and dining area.
