"The sister hotel doubletree was closed for refurbishment so the pool/splash pad/restaurants on that side were not in service. Dissappointing as we were not informed of this during booking with expedia. Due to it being closed- the guests from that side came to our side resulting in long waiting times and busy buffet meals. Staff were rushed. Rooms are dated, and furniture looks tired. Outdoor lazy river was only highlight."

Top Barr Al Jissah Hotel Reviews

Grand Millennium Muscat connected to Muscat Grand Mall

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at the grand millennium. It is connected to the mall which is very convenient if you need to quickly grab anything. Everything was very clean and the amenities were great. There was a separate spa for men and women including jacuzzi, steam room and sauna. The roof top pools were mixed and a completely private one for women. There is also a tennis court on the roof top. The only downside was the WiFi being quite slow so I had to resort to data sometimes. Staff were very helpful with any needs and also let us check in early when we arrived. Definitely recommend staying if you are visiting muscat"
