W MUSCAT:
IN CELEBRATION OF MUSCAT
AT THE CROSSROADS
OF HISTORY
W Muscat, the Sultanate’s trendiest hotel, is strongly emblematic of Oman’s capital city which has sat at the crossroads of history,
geography, trade and culture since antiquity.
Ensconced between the Al Hajar Mountains and the Sea of Oman, this ancient city was coveted by powerful empires in bygone times and thrived at the intersection of two culturally distinctive worlds; ancient and modern, eastern and western, classical and avant-garde. It was a magnet for maritime explorers and nomadic travelers, a hub for maritime trade and a melting pot of cultures.
In the upshot, Muscat has evolved into a city that is at once culturally diverse in its appeal, yet modern in its outlook and chic in its style; the essence of which is captured in the distinctive design
and stylish services of W Muscat.
