Oman’s Muscat At Barr Al Jissah, a famous waterfront location renowned for its natural beauty, Hilton has opened three hotels.
The resorts, which are tucked away between the Gulf of Oman and the Al Jissah cliffs, provide a mix of lively event venues, family friendly options, and upscale luxury experiences. Owned by The Zubair Corporation, the openings mark the beginning of a new era of top-notch hospitality along Oman’s coastline and are only forty minutes from Muscat International Airport.
Guy Hutchinson, Hilton’s president for the Middle East and Africa says “As Oman’s travel and tourism industry continues to flourish, we are proud to open these three hotels at Barr Al Jissah – the country’s iconic seaside destination.With our global network and portfolio of top-tier brands, we look forward to helping it succeed. In collaboration with The Zubair Corporation, we seek to enhance Oman’s standing as a top travel destination, assisting the country’s Vision 2040 objective of drawing 11 million tourists a year and promoting long-term growth in the industry.”
Niels Bormans, group CEO of The Zubair Corporation stated, “Today marks a milestone moment for Barr Al Jissah and for Oman’s hospitality sector. We are happy to formally welcome Hilton as Barr Al Jissah Resorts’ new operator. We are sure that their extensive global expertise, superior operational skills, and dedication to quality will further enhance the three properties. In keeping with Oman Vision 2040’s objectives, this agreement demonstrates our commitment to creating long-term value through top-tier partnerships that foster the expansion of the travel industry and the development of talent.”
The Al Husn Hotel Muscat is a tranquil coastal retreat that blends luxury and Omani history. For couples, honeymooners, and discriminating visitors seeking seclusion, peace, and sophisticated elegance, the hotel’s 180 guest rooms and suites with unobstructed views of the Gulf of Oman provide an elevated experience. The property, which symbolically overlooks the rest of the resort, was designed with inspiration from an Omani fort. A spa, an infinity pool, and a private beach are examples of exclusive features. The Al Husn Hotel Muscat will change its name to a Waldorf Astoria in 2027 after planned renovations.
Barr Al Jissah’s business and lifestyle centre is the Hilton Muscat Al Bandar. The Hilton Muscat Al Bandar is a top location for weddings, business events, and big parties thanks to its cutting-edge indoor and outdoor event facilities, which include a ballroom that can hold up to 850 guests, extensive outdoor event spaces, and a dedicated amphitheatre. The 198 room hotel features a variety of dining options and bars, as well as a vibrant poolside bar called La Jolla.
The DoubleTree chocolate chip cookie welcome is the first step towards the laid-back, family-friendly experience that DoubleTree by Hilton Muscat Al Waha offers. The resort has 302 roomy guest rooms and suites, and its architecture captures the allure of an Omani village, making it feel genuine and welcoming. With many pools, a waterslide, and access to common areas across Barr Al Jissah, the resort is ideal for family vacations.
