    Amazing family-owned hotel. The attention from the owners was great, the rooms are super nice created from old traditional village houses but adapted to bring the best comfort. The food was home-made by the family and very tasty

    Beautiful boutique hotel overlooking the mountains. Amazing breakfast and dinner (best food we had in 10days of hotel hopping in Oman). Very comfortable bed. Perfect for couples looking for a unique place to stay.

    We were in a room for 3 which was comfortable with a good shower and very comfortable beds. The down side was the lack of storage, hanging space etc.

    The location and staff were the stand out features. Ali, the owner, was extremely helpful and welcoming. The hotel was traditional and very comfortable. The location was out of this world.

    There is not a ton to do in the area so I wouldn't stay for longer than 2-3 days, but that's not really this hotel's fault!

    Very much enjoyed my stay a this unique location, the family running it was also very kind and went above and beyond to give us a nice stay.

    The steps along the pathway from one room to the other should have been better illuminated at night time. It was difficult to see them in the dark.

    Everything you could want from an authentic stay in the beautiful mountains of Oman!

    I liked almost everything about the hotel, but just a couple of notes for future travellers: There is free parking, but it is a short walk from the hotel itself - not a problem but just noting in case you have mobility issues. There are no screens on the bedroom windows, so it is not possible to keep the windows open overnight without risking creatures getting inside. (There is an air conditioning unit, though!) We were a bit disappointed as we came during Ramadan and there was no breakfast served for guests - the hotel put together a box with some processed snacks and nescafe but it is not the same as a real breakfast and coffee - it would have been nice if we had been notified about this beforehand so we could plan. In summary, it is a lovely place to stay with a few very small things that weren't perfect, but I would not hesitate to recommend it!

    This is a beautiful little hotel that has been expertly restored. It has a fabulous roof deck with breathtaking views. The staff are very kind and helpful. The rooms are quite small, but still well-equipped and very clean. It is near some lovely hiking trails through the rose terraces.

    Our rooms were not cleaned after the first night. Maybe this is not customary in Oman? Not a big deal, and otherwise everything was perfect.

    Very authentic and attractive inn. Our rooms did not have views, but the views from the breakfast room and the roof deck were stupendous. Owner and staff were very kind and helpful, for instance helping us plan a hike on the upper plateau. Breakfasts were especially good, with lots of variety and delicious, healthy homemade things to eat. The dinners were also plentiful and nutritious. We would very gladly stay here again.

    Best concept rooms made out of Old Mud Houses.

    The food can be really worked on. They are charging quite high, they can provide better quality and variety of food especially for breakfast and for dinner too. Half board is a must in this place because of its location, you wouldn't want to hunt for dinner once you are here, relaxing after sunset.

    We loved everything as you can see. However the "no view" room was a bit disappointing for the price that we pay. The property is a bit overpriced but then it is understandable considering other hotels prices at Jabal Akhdar. I would support this business a little more because of its local ownership and full involvement of the investors along with the location, rooms and concept.

    Great authentic location with amazing views!
    • Leisure trip

    • Stayed 2 nights

    The beds are comfortable but the pillows are very hard and high and thus difficult to sleep on. The warm water was very limited for the shower. You have to switch off the water in-between as otherwise it will not last for an entire shower for even one person. As we were there during Ramadan there was no breakfast served but a breakfast box only, which I did not really enjoy apart from the fresh fruit.

    The location is fantastic! Awesome views and amazing staff. The whole property is renovated with such care and attention to details. It feels like a very special and authentic Omani style place to stay rather than the 5* chain hotels nearby. The dinner buffet was very good and cooked by local Omanis. Make sure to take a guided tour of the hanging terraces - it will give you so much more information and context about the area and life there!

    We were given a breakfast box as it was Ramadan when we visited - this lacked variety and mostly comprised pre packaged bread with spreads and fruit. Our room was located within the lobby and did get noisy at times.

    Unique looking rooms in Jebel Akhkar. Gorgeous rooftop area to admire the sunset. Dinner was delicious and of good variety. Soaps and shampoo smelled lovely

    The property is in a village with very narrow streets / lanes and there is no parking immediately next to it. They mitigate this with staff available to carry your luggage from the nearest parking spot to the hotel.

    Property with a lot of character and nicely furnished. Great views and locations. Food was very nice too.

    Because of Ramadan they served breakfast in a plastic box the night before and it wasn’t very good quality - I am sure the full breakfast service would be as good as the excellent dinner!

    The renovation of these old Omani mountain villages is tasteful and sensitive. Staying here felt like a really authentic experience, but with modern luxury in the bathrooms and bedding. The young Omani owner is kind and welcoming. The dinner was abundant and delicious. You have fantastic views and easy access to the W18b Three Villages walk which is amazing.

    No complaints!

    Great location on the side of a mountain. You can follow a path from the front door to other nearby villages and enjoy amazing views along the way. The roof terrace also has great views of the valley. The property itself has been beautifully renovated as a boutique hotel while preserving the traditional stone houses, and we were impressed by the facilities. The restaurant serves buffet food made by people in the local town, which we really enjoyed. (There isn't really anywhere else to eat nearby.) Because we visited during Ramadan, the staff provided a packed breakfast for us to eat in our rooms or take away.
