Find Hotels in Sur, Oman

Having read mixed reviews, I had low expectations but was pleasantly surprised. The Sur Plaza Hotel certainly isn't the best hotel you will ever stay at, but it appears to be the pick of hotels in Sur. the Sur Beach Hotel and Sur Hotel in the city centre both looked terrible in comparison. The staff were friendly if a little unhelpful, wifi was fine, breakfast was reasonable, the pool area is quite nice. The only downside was the location away from the city centre, but Sur Plaza Hotel is definitely the best choice is you have a car and worth considering even without given you could take a taxi for the short trip to the city centre.

we loved our one night stay here! It's slightly expensive but I don't mind that when you consider that the money is going towards conservation. The tented rooms are really nice and a bit of luxury including their own em suite, comfy beds and a/c. Location is excellent. Definitely worth staying here if you plan to go turtle watching. From the look of the main building the tents are much nicer and worth the extra over the rooms. Staff were excellent including the kitchen and dining staff and all guides very friendly. Better to stay here if you want to watch turtles as they make sure you are in the first groups to see the turtles in the evening and you get the extra morning tour. Food was decent (curry particularly good) and plenty of options including lots of low fat and healthy options. Only thing we felt that dinner was very expensive compared to elsewhere in Oman and they charge extra for the bottle of water that they serve to you as if it's included. I guess it's a captive market but it seemed unfair. The museum could do with a little attention ass some exhibits broken and I felt there could be more information about the turtles but overall is was the best thing we did in Oman. I would definitely do it again.

First we had booked a different hotel and around two weeks before our holidays began we were informed by you that the other hotel was not able to accept our booking. Then we were referred to this hotel (and another one). We chose Resort Sur Beach Holiday. It is a nice Hotel with a good location in Sur and staff was friendly. I can recommend for a one (or two) night stay if you travel around. If you are a family with smaller children maybe it is ideal for somewhat like three days as there is a swimming pool, the Sea and some square meters of green between the Hotel and the Sea. In my view the Sur city has not so much things to offer.

If you cannot spot turtles from your balcony at Ras al Hadd guesthouse, this is a perfect place for a stopover on your way to Ras Al Jinz for turtle watching, which is just 15 km away. The price-value ratio is very the best we had in Oman, with a very motivated, friendly and helpfull staff (we were provided with information without even asking!). Nice spacious clean room, caribean-style beach with turquios water and soft white sand in walking distance, dinner provided into our room at a very late hour with a smile and extra complimentary water bottles supplied for our next trip made this stay a very nice and personal experience. Should we ever come again to Ras al Hadd area, we will definitely stay in this guest house! Caveat: The location of the guest house is not correctly displayed on the agoda map - use the coordinates in the review mentioned before, or follow the signs in the city and as soon as you see a higher building with blue lights, go in that direction.

This was my last night in Oman and I was very surprised with this hotel. Having in mind high prices in Oman, I wasn't expecting much for this price. But at the end this was one of the best hotels I stayed in while in Oman. Room was big and comfortable, clean, on the last floor so I had nice view of the ocean. Location is just few minutes walk from the restaurants and 15mins walk to Sur city centre. The hotel doesn't have wifi but there is Muscat Bank just next door who has free wifi. The best thing about this hotel was the staff who were very kind and allowed me early check-in and late check-out at no extra cost.

We stayed in the hotel for one night only. We were travelling around north part of Oman - 7 adult people and 3 small kids- 1; 3.5; and 4.5 years old boys) Location was very good for us as we wanted to stay close to the sea. It`s easy to get from hotel to Ras Al Jinz for turtles watching. Receptionist booked tickets for us and they gave us good directioins how to get there. We booked 4 rooms and all of them were quite spacious and light. Generally the rooms were clean but it looked like they forgot to clean under the beds and on the balcony. There was no restaurant in the hotel but there is a Small coffee shop just next to the enterance. If I ever go to Sur I will look for the room in The Al Faisal Hotel again.

Fine, principally we just needed an economical place to sleep and eat whilst visiting the turtles at Ras Al Jinz. The hotel is dated, showing signs of deterioration, poorly decorated, and the bar downstairs attracts some harmless but very intoxicated locals. In general though, the rooms were clean, the staff were friendly, and the in-room dining was really quite good. The morning buffet breakfast is again more than adequate. The other options in the area are 'novelty' grass hut style living and are quite a bit more expensive for what they are. So if you intend to spend the majority of the time exploring and visiting turtles, and only in the area for one night, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this 2-3 star hotel.

If you like to get away from it all this is a perfect beach chill out. Despite the rustic outer appearance, the rooms are surprisingly comfortable with flat screen TV, air con and a pretty good shower- if you've booked a room with a private bathroom. Take everything you need with you as it's pretty far to Sur (over 30 kilometers) and they do have fridges in the rooms, so you can keep drinks chilled. The staff are helpful and you can book turtle watching trips and a dolphin watching dhow cruise from the resort. The sea is crystal clear and you can hire snorkeling equipment/ canoes at the resort- plenty of colorful fish to see. This resort is perfect for a chilled few days away from it all- rustic Oman at its best!
