Al Bustan Palace, A Ritz-Carlton Hotel

Secluded amid an emerald green oasis overlooked by the Al Hajar Mountains, Al Bustan Palace, a Ritz-Carlton Hotel stands proudly as one of the sultanate's landmarks. With the Gulf of Oman beckoning from the edge of its beachfront and the glimmer of an exquisite crystal chandelier in the lobby, this luxury resort in Muscat is a destination of its own. Distinctive venues include fine Chinese cuisine, seaside dining, and a new elegant jazz lounge.
