"Alles sehr einfach, aber in Ordnung und es gibt dort oben am Berg wohl nichts Besseres."

5.0

Die Lage am Jebel Shams, das gute Buffet am Abend im Restaurant.

Es war am Abend im Restaurant sehr kalt. Das Zimmer konnte in der Nacht immerhin durch einen Heizlüfter so geheizt werden, dass die Nacht erträglich war.

"Magnifique étape en vue du célèbre balcony walk"

10.0

Très bon accueil de l'équipe et surtout du restaurant de l'hôtel qui à su nous mettre à l'aise très facilement. Mention spéciale à Ali pour sa gentillesse.

Plus d'informations sur l'état de la route au moment où nous l'avons emprunté aurait été un plus.

"Cher au regard de l'absence de prestation et d'équipements notamment en chambre standard."

6.0

Beau 'resort', bâtiments en pierre et bois bien intégrés au paysage, très beaux jardins, extérieurs superbes. Parkings. Excellent repas du soir et petit déjeuner buffet servis par une équipe très sympathique et souriante.

Ne mérite absolument pas le nom de 'Resort' : si vous le pouvez, louez les chalets, mais la prestation 'chambre standard' tient davantage de la cabane de berger : petite pièce en pierre avec une simple banquette pour poser les affaires et 4 cintres, salle de bain glaciale (il fait froid la nuit). Absence de vitre à la fenêtre !!! qui oblige à fermer le volet s'il fait froid en journée et rester dans l'obscurité éclairé par 2 ampoules poussives. Aucun siège ni dedans ni dehors. Aucun service en journée hormis les petits déjeuners et repas du soir. Pas possible d'avoir un café/thé/boisson de retour de rando; Pas de wi-fi disponible, sauf à l'accueil et au restaurant. Bref, joli, mais aucun service méritant le qualificatif de resort. On se sent un peu piégés car peu d'autres établissements à cet endroit pour randonner à Jebel Shams. Bon pour 1 nuit maxi. Très cher pour la prestation Chambre Standard. Et oubliez le 'Spa' de l'appellation 'Resort Spa'... il n'y en a pas.

색다른 숙박 경험이었어요. 저녁식사도 아주 만족스러웠어요. 오만에서 먹은 식사중 최고였어요.
