The Intercontinental is located in the heart of Muscat. The hotel describes itself as 'a resort within the city' as it is set within 35 acres of palm gardens, including a beach club, which leads onto miles of sandy beach, and yet the hotel is also close to all business districts. With both sea and mountains view rooms, it is a very relaxing and luxurious property. There are several restaurants and bars to choose from, including an open air terrace restuarant, Trader Vics and traditional English pub. The rooms are of a very high standard, whilst the beach club features 3 open air swimming pools, tennis courts, squash courts, health club and fully equipped fitness centre. The perfect combination for business or leisure with a great location.
