Atana Khasab Hotel

“Review on Mukesh(waiter at restaurant)”

Mukesh (a waiter at the restaurant) was very pleasant and helpful, and did everything he could to satisfy our needs. He recommended food that was great, and was also very patient, not minding that we needed a bit of time figuring out what we wanted. Overall, a very cheerful and kind man.

This hotel was booked for me as part of a 3 night package. It is conveniently close to the Khasab airport. Unfortunately, the weather was windy and quite cool the first 2 days and I found my room very chilly because the a/c seemed to only have a cooling function. In the end I left it off the whole time but the room still stayed surprisingly cold and I had to wear a fleece inside. That aside, the room was good. Spacious with a big, comfortable bed, sofa and free standing desk. I would have liked better lighting but I particularly like bright lights and others may not have minded so much. The bathroom was well fitted out with a walk in shower. There was a kettle, fridge, iron and ironing board. Water was provided in a reusable glass bottle which is great to see. There was a balcony with table and chairs and a view of a channel. Beyond the channel was a not so scenic construction site. My package included breakfast and dinner. The food was okay - not outstanding - but mostly good enough. There is a big supermarket (Lulu Hypermarket) just 100 meters from the front gate so you can always stock up a bit there if need be. The hotel seemed almost empty on the first night but swarms of UAE-based ex-patriots and their appallingly behaved children arrived the next day making for a less restful experience, The children seemed to just be turned loose and ran screaming around the walkways outside the rooms and yelled in the restaurant. Breakfast on my final morning was so crowded that guests had to wait 15-30 minutes for a table. This was partly due to Ramadan with the outside tables not in use after sunrise but also all the families seemed to want to eat at the same time. At check out I was happy to be leaving them all behind for an airport business hotel in Muscat. The Atana is a reasonably good hotel. Pity about the children.

“Peaceful Oasis on the Outskirts of Khasab”

The positives first - the staff! Our stay was six nights and we were made to feel like royalty with all the staff knowing us and being aware of our favourite breakfast choices etc. A big shout out to Leah Solis, Karim Runt and Leah Marin, and a lovely young man whose name I think was Apnohuh (brown shirt). There were also many other great staff who we didn’t get to write down their names who smiled every time we passed them. The ladies on reception were also super helpful arranging both our dolphin spotting trip and a boat taxi to Kumzar. The rooms were spotless and the beds were so comfortable - slept like a log every night. The view from our room was spectacular too. The restaurant was a bit hit and miss - it was better when there were more people there as I think the poor chef was cooking just for us at one point in the week and had to have several options ready in case we chose them. The negatives - it’s tired, the carpet on our floor was threadbare in places and the artificial grass around the pool had seen better days. BUT when we left was so emotional as had the best time and was very, very sad to leave Khasab. Would we come back again - yes! And that is for the great staff.
