Expectation and reality (photoshop or another place?) Good afternoon. I want to share my impressions of the hotel so that other travelers don't have the illusions we got into. The main disadvantage is the discrepancy between the picture and reality. The hotel looks fresh and well-maintained on websites and social networks. In life, everything is very old. Furniture, plumbing, and decoration have long been in need of renovation. It feels like time stopped here 10 years ago. Territory. Yes, it's huge. But this is more of a minus than a plus. You can really get lost in search of the right building or restaurant. Navigation is weak, and instead of relaxing, you experience mild irritation trying to find your way to the beach or for breakfast. Beach. They claim to be equipped. But entering the sea is a challenge: very large pebbles, it is painful to step on, and it is uncomfortable for either adults or children to enter. The equipment is equipped with equipment, but the comfort of relaxing at sea is negated by this fact. Food. Very simple, no frills. And it's not even about hunger — you'll stay full. But there is something to compare it with in this country. Compared to other hotels of the same level, the cuisine here is noticeably inferior in both variety and taste. Result. If you value aesthetics, convenience on the beach, delicious food and fast service, this hotel will disappoint you. The expectation was an order of magnitude higher than reality. We will not return here again and we do not recommend it if you are not ready to compromise on everything.

We were absolutely delighted with our stay. The main advantage of the hotel is its impeccable service. The staff is not just polite, but sincerely interested in the comfort of guests: they notice wishes, anticipate needs, and resolve issues instantly. Every detail is thought out — from the quality of the bed linen to the fragrance in the lobby. Luxury that is felt in the details.

My name is Irina, I work for the Pantheon tour operator company. Today I want to share my impressions about The Chedi Muscat 5 hotel* 1. Location It takes 15 minutes by car from the airport to the hotel. Muscat is 5 km away. 2. The territory A simple and stylish hotel with a well-maintained territory. The lobby resembles an Arab tent, with the scent of incense in the air. The hotel has 3 outdoor pools (one of them is 103 meters long), 6 restaurants and 2 tennis courts. There are places that are accessible only for adults (swimming pools, restaurants) + there is no infrastructure for children here, which for some people will be a plus. A large SPA, a relaxation room with a beautiful view of the bay. I liked the gym, each simulator is fenced with wooden panels that create privacy, it is much more pleasant to practice. If it is relevant for someone: the hotel has 2 conference rooms. 3. The room The rooms are located in snow-white houses. The simplest room categories with an area of 33 sq. m are simple and concise. Comfortable beds and pillows, high quality bed linen. Aqua di Parma cosmetics. The only thing is that I didn't have enough light in the room, but it's individual for everyone. The hotel manager said that Russian tourists most often book the Suite category. When booking Club rooms, access to the Club Lounge is provided. 4. Nutrition The stylish main restaurant offers Indian, Arabic, and European cuisines. There is also a "cold" room. The breakfasts are excellent - buffet + you can order dishes from the menu. On the beach, The Beach is a Middle Eastern restaurant overlooking the bay (open for dinners), there is a lot of open space and air. Delicious fish and seafood. 5. Entertainment There is no active entertainment in the hotel, in the evening you can smoke a hookah or have a romantic dinner on the beach. 6. The beach The hotel is located on the 1st coastline, a private beach with a gentle entrance to the water, but in places there are small pebbles. Not as impressive as in Jumeirah Muscat or Shangri-La, but still decent. In addition, you need to take into account the difference in the location of the hotels. Chedi beach is very fond of seagulls, they sit along the entire coast)) 7. The overall impression A good hotel for a relaxing holiday. Europeans mostly rest here, we managed to talk to some of them, and she pointed out the ideal service - the staff is always there, but at the same time unobtrusive. It is ideal for couples and people who appreciate a secluded vacation, but also want to be able to get out into the city. Here you can combine it. If you need help with booking, please contact us!
