Hormuz Grand Hotel, located minutes away from Muscat International Airport, is the perfect destination for visitors looking to explore Oman’s capital city and its outskirts. Its proximity to Muscat’s commercial hubs and engagement in the country’s evolving cultural and business environment have helped contribute to the growing popularity of the hotel.

Oman is one of the few countries in the Middle East that has held onto its cultural heritage while taking a modern approach to social and economic developments. This has resulted in a unique blend of traditional culture and contemporary facilities.

The country’s approach to infrastructure developments places respect for Oman’s environment and cultural heritage at the forefront of everything it does. As such, Oman is an interesting developing destination for both leisure and business, making hospitality venues like Hormuz Grand Hotel significant in the nation’s travel and tourism goals.

As Oman’s economy and business clientele have grown, its hospitality industry has followed the same trend. Located at the entrance to Muscat’s business district, Hormuz Grand Hotel occupies a prominent position in the market.

It overlooks the mountains of Muscat to the east and the Gulf of Oman to the north, meaning all guest rooms overlook a spectacular panorama of valleys and mountains. Not only is the view outside the hotel impressive, but its interior is also noteworthy. Traditional design and modern features combine to create a hospitality experience that exceeds the expectations of the modern traveller.

Despite several new hotels opening in and outside the capital, Hormuz Grand Hotel has maintained its reputation as a favoured destination in Muscat. Its location near the airport and the Madinat Al Irfan urban development project, which will include a new venue for regional and international events, has cemented the hotel’s appeal to business travellers.

Exceeding expectations
Hormuz Grand Hotel has 231 rooms and suites, as well as 1,478sq m of business spaces, which, combined with the hotel’s team of experienced banqueting staff, will make any event a success. Surrounded by luxurious and modern touches, the professional environment of the conference and meeting facilities is tailored to suit modern businesses.

With the latest report by Oman’s Ministry of Tourism showing an increase in tourist arrivals to the country, the hotel has been sure to use its growing market position to drive the sultanate’s reputation as a world-class destination.

Surrounded by the government’s various ministries and located in centre of the Seeb business district, the hotel is renowned as a luxury business hotel in the corporate world. As a result, it receives a significant percentage of Oman’s business travellers.

Reputation for success
The hotel’s team is committed to providing high-quality service, and takes every opportunity to ensure that guests are comfortable and well looked after. Free Wi-Fi, three restaurants serving world-class cuisine, a private pool, a well-equipped gym and a luxurious spa are just some of the unique features that make Hormuz Grand Hotel the destination of choice for any traveller in Oman.

The hotel will continue to support government initiatives aimed at encouraging business development in Oman, especially as the country is actively pursuing a plan that focuses on diversification, industrialisation and privatisation. The plan aims to create opportunities for foreign businesses to grow and invest in Oman.

Hormuz Grand Hotel has hosted numerous citywide events such as the Tour of Oman cycling race and the NBO Oman Open golf tournament. Through its exceptional service, the hotel has fostered an excellent relationship with local authorities and government organisations, which support and trust the hotel with their guests and events.
