Radisson Blu Hotel, Sohar

Oman


While the grand staircase, marble lobby and five-star amenities (landscaped pools, rooftop bar and fine dining) are familiar prerequisites of most luxury hotels in the region, this excellent-value hotel steals a march on its rivals with the beach location. Most of the luxurious rooms have sea views, and at night the fishing boats on the horizon sparkle with Sinbad magic.
