The Crowne Plaza is, along with the Hilton, one of the top two hotels in Salalah. It has a very attractive location, with a white sandy beach, in an area of lush coconut palm and bananana plantations. There are 153 rooms. Facilties include 3 restaurants, a bar, a swimming pool, 9-hole golf course, gym and sauna.
Stayed here for a few days. The hotel is quite close to the town centre, but to get to sights you will need transport. Best to hire a car. Hotel is clean and staff are friendly. Rooms are clean and tidy. There are 2 outdoor pools, a beach restaurant, coffee shop, pub and 2 indoor restaurants. There are several shops on the lower floor of the hotel selling beachware, gifts, car rental, etc. Breakfast was included in our room rate and had a good selection of foods. The hotel is situated by the beach. Rates are on the expensive side. Hotel a bit dated.
