An interesting question @CJD which got me thinking. I’d probably go for the Shangri-La Al Husn given its proximity to Muscat city (they run a regular shuttle bus). We just felt really comfortable there and the little touches like the afternoon tea and aperitif hour were really nice, For example when you are by the pool they provide an ice box of drinks and juice and a cooling water spray, I appreciate it’s only a small thing but when it’s unadvertised and provided with enthusiasm by the hotel staff it’s lovely. This was our first visit to a Shangri-La so we had no status but all the staff made our stay feel special and that they were very motivated to look after us.
