My business colleagues and I stayed here for two nights during a brief visit to Salalah. What's not to like about staying in a resort right on the beach? The property has seen better days but is still impressive, with lots of marble and crystal and a huge atrium, all in a vaguely pharonic style, and the setting, with vast... More

We came to Salalah on business, and our company put us up in the Crowne Plaza because it's a 5 star (apparently). And we've stayed in other Crowne Plaza hotels in the US and been very pleased with them. To us, this particular Crowne Plaza was more like a 4 star hotel. It was OK - but certainly not the... More

We were upgraded on Checkin to a magnificent Junior Suite, beautifully decorated in Omani style, spacious, a very comfortable bed and a balcony to enjoy the view. Every member of staff we met went above and beyond to make sure our stay was outstanding. I don't think I have ever stayed in a hotel that provided such excellent service. We... More

The hotel is in a good location (better than the Hilton), only about 15 minutes from the airport, on the beach, with attractive and well-laid out gardens. As well as the hotel pool, the beach had a marked area for swimming and lifeguards. In February, most guests were from Germany and Scandinavia. We were there for two nights: our room... More

We stayed in Crowne Plaza complex 3 bed Villa for 6 days recently. Salalah is not a European/ American style well developed resort. The City is interspersed with fruit/ veg growing farms. Salalah does not have a central Promenade, and therefore does not have European style Restaurants and shops. There are a number of high quality Hotel Resorts in area.... More

Really enjoyed the 3 nights I spent in this hotel with my wife in March 2013 . I was there for work but my wife was on holiday. The first advantage of the hotel is its location on the beach, not too far from the centre of Salalah. The second advantage is the range of activities you can access to.... More

On arrival at Salalah airport, we were greeted by our transfer driver, and "parked" for almost 30 minutes in the afternoon heat whilst he went and got the minibus, loaded us and another couple with all our baggage and took us to the hotel. On arrival, we were checked in quickly enough, although the check-in person clearly didn't have a... More

Really enjoyed staying at the Crown Plaza for two single night stops in March 2013. The hotel is not cheap but nothing in Oman is, and it is not out of line with the general costs of visiting or living in the country. Rooms are charming and spacious with excellent amenities. I was particularly taken with the standard of dining... More

I enjoy the hotel for its membership possibilities and many of its top-notch staff. The upstairs restaurant has been sliding significantly in basic quality/hygeinic servings recently but nevertheles there are enough devoteed staff there to possible raise the bar a bit. Long term residents of Salalah may enroll for membership, use the gym or just chill out on the beach.Getting... More

So as a first time to Salalah you really have two choices: The Hilton (best services) or the Crowne Plaza (best unobstructed beach). Both are expensive for what they are. Positives of the hotel: Free pickup and drop off at the airport, beautiful scenery on the way to the hotel, Hotel: efficient check-in, good sized rooms, quiet, nice grounds and... More
