Dusit Signs D2 Hotel in Muscat, Oman

Dusit International has signed a management agreement with Al Jarwani Group for a dusitD2 hotel in Muscat, Sultanate of Oman.

The dusitD2 Palm Mall Muscat, scheduled for completion in 2017, will be located within the mixed-use Palm Mall development that will offer some rather unique attractions, including Oman’s first snow village and the Sultanate’s largest aquarium.

The hotel will offer approximately 150 guest rooms and 100 suites. Select rooms will offer views of the mall’s aquarium and snow village.

Leisure facilities will include a gym, spa and pool, while meeting rooms and a ballroom will cater for business guests and special events.

Despite being a desert country, Oman possesses a diverse geography, making it an excellent destination for adventure travelers keen to explore its rugged mountains, beautiful coastlines or awe inspiring sand dunes. Cultural tourism is also a major highlight in Oman which boasts multiple UNESCO World Heritage Sites, such as the ruins of the necropolis of Bat, dating back to 3,000 B.C.

“We are excited to add Oman to our list of international destinations, further strengthening Dusit’s presence in the GCC region,” said Dusit Managing Director and CEO, Mr. Chanin Donavanik. “The dusitD2 Palm Mall Muscat will offer the Dusit brand’s signature warm, gracious service, combined with local hospitality customs and world-class entertainment facilities to provide a truly unique experience. We are confident that alongside our partners at Al Jarwani Group, we will be able to make this hotel a great success and a new landmark in the region.”
