Seeb Muscat, Oman Travel Guide
High-end international chains and local luxury properties feature extensive facilities, pools, and dining. Discover these in Al Mouj, Qurum, and Shatti Al Qurum.
3-star and 4-star hotels offer comfortable stays with a range of amenities. These appear throughout Muscat, including Seeb, balancing comfort and cost.
More basic accommodations, often smaller hotels that are not part of a chain. These are common in areas like Ruwi and Al Khuwair, with some options in Seeb.
Good for longer stays or families, these offer kitchenettes and more space than standard hotel rooms.
Traditional Omani guesthouses or heritage hotels offer a more culturally immersive experience, often in Nizwa or Muttrah. Seeb mainly features up-to-date accommodations.

Homestays are less common within urban Seeb. You typically discover these in rural areas of Oman, part of community tourism initiatives for cultural immersion.
