Located in very 'conservative SAHAM- 30 km from the SOHAR main airport, Hotel ROYAL SUITE provides a good cost effective alternative to the large chai hotels of OMAN. At around 60% less the price of the likes of the Inter-conti, it does not have anywhere near the opulence, but it does have its own charm; rooms are clean and spacious and it is slap bang In the middle of a proper Arabic working town- with (non tourist) souq, a 'working' beach, a fish market, a nice promenade to walk along by the sea and all the hustle and bustle of the Omani night life. PLUS a really good Indian restaurant that is fully licensed. Taxi to Muscat centre will be around 5 OR, but to get away for the 'norm' this is a good alternative. Plenty of window shopping for nic-nacs in the evenings. all rooms are A/C and breakfast is usually included...
