Reviews for Sur Plaza Hotel
Review 1:The hotel has nothing 'special' Omani influences, it could just as well be situated in any other country.
Review 2:Comfortable hotel. Attentive staff, nice dinner location next to the swimming pool.
Review 3:this is an old hotel, so be careful, when using the water, first time it might come with rust!
Review 4:The Manager was helpful, location is good and staff were friendly
Review 5:The location wasn't nice. It is close to a busy local street.
Review 6:The hotel has a very high seiling that gives you a nice and open feeling. The room was comfortable, the staffs were friendly. It's a great value hotel. We had really a good time!
Review 7:This is minor, but Back entrance (from back parking) thru the back of house is annoying and ruins the luxury feeling at the front, Find a way to connect the back to front without going thru that place.
Review 8:Location, and its probably the best furnished hotel around.
Review 9:Booking.com price of the room was 40 omr. But was charged 46.800 omr..They said taxes extra,but while booking " Total price for your stayis 40.00 OMR" was displaced on the web page.
Review 10:It was a very neat & tidy place with clean rooms, but a bit smallfor the price!!
Review 11:The mini bar fridge is not cooling, no one has to come to fix it. Aside from that the bed sheet was yellowish with stain as well.
Review 12:The breakfast was excellent, plenty of choices.
Review 13:I ordered room service and asked for babaganoush. They brought me hummus instead and when I questioned it I was asked if I knew that hummus is made from chickpeas and told I would like it (which I do but that was not the point!). The checkbox for beachfront is ticked and this is misleading. It's way too far to walk to the beach.
Review 14:Delay in picking up the food tray from lunch time placed outside the room. I came at midnight and found it still there. Delay from concierge to come to the room when requested.
Review 15:The lady in the reception took 30 min to check me in she said she didn't find my booking and created alot of confusion i was not happy for the lack of professionalism from her side her excuse was that their reservation office closes at 5pm and i came after that time
Review 16:the location is good and easy to find, nice pool, good staff,
Review 17:Don't bother having breakfast at this hotel it was the most terrible breakfast i had since years...

Review 22:good location fast free wifi
Review 23:old and needs renovation which is undergoing now
Review 24:Location is great the best hotel in sur some times the rates are good good wifi swimming pool is good
Review 25:Lack of proffessionalism of one particular member of staff who confirmed to us that it would be OK to stay for a second night; when in fact on the next day we were asked to check-out as the hotel was fully booked...
Review 26:Clean and well maintained, great level of comfort at an affordable price
Review 27:Far from town and the staff was paying more attention to their mobile phones than to the guests. The bathroom was flooded after having a shower.
Review 28:Surprisingly good food at the restaurant. Nice swimming pool area.
Review 29:Only negative was that the Hotel is advertised as having 3 bars when in fact there are none. Drinks, however, were available in the restaurant so wasn't a train-smash.
Review 30:Good value for money hotel. Great staff especially in the restaurant. Good food.
Review 31:Rather dirty little village. Unnessecary to stop there. Windows in the rooms are very small thus not much daylight.
Review 32:Friendly and helpful staff. Free parking and internet.
Review 33:old hotel and it started to show age food not that good pool is not heated.
Review 34:The Staff are good But Mr Taiseer is the best, he is very friendly supportive Gentleman and remembers me each time i visit the hotel The rate was a great I got late check out no problem. Very good fast wifi
Review 35:Staff at the reception very frindly and helpful. Our room was spacious and very clean. Breakfast very good with a satisfying variety of food. Restaurant very good, both buffet and a la carte options. Pool and gym very well maintained and supervised by instructor and lifeguard.
Review 36:Wifi only worked in common room Restaurant not the best - waitress mentioned all the food was frozen food
Review 37:Nice hotel, nice pool area and bar with billiard/tv
Review 38:The lobby and dining room was subject to the same Christmas song (Joy to the World) in a never/ending loop for hours on end. It was horrible.
Review 39:The pool area and the dining staff
Review 40:The hotel staff were very helpful especially Jisha who helped arrange trips for me that would fit in with the limited amount of time I had in Sur. The room was clean and comfortable and room service was available all day rather than at limited times as in many hotels
Review 41:restricted food times Breakfast could have been served for the end of the turtle experience - had to wait an hour (starving!!!)
Review 42:loved the eco tent - glamping at its best - get one with a sea view! Food was very good Reception extremely busy at times due to the turtle viewing The whole experience was amazing Its a MUST that you go to both turtle viewings - spectacular
Review 43:The area around hotel was semi industrial and not close to the beach/shore.
Review 44:Good airy hotel, with helpful staff. restaurant good standard, a clean establishment.
Review 45:Car Parking during night time is fully occupied,not corresponding to no. of hotel rooms .Need a control . Mattresses are old and soft need to be changed to medical quality
Review 46:There was no communication between the room service and the front office to charge us the items requested, we were billed extra
Review 47:Cleanliness of the room
Review 48:The guy behind the counter couldn't find my booking from my name and was rather rude about it. It turns out that they had booked both of our 2 rooms under my travelling companion's name instead of one room under each name which was the way I booked it. They then gave us 2 rooms with a double bed in each despite having requested 2 single beds in each room. The corridor outside our rooms stank of smoke and each room had an ashtray despite having requested non-smoking rooms.
Review 49:Restaurant was pretty good and well priced. Pool looked nice. Beds were comfortable enough.
Review 50:We requested a bed for our daughter in the booking and had to ask at least 4 times before it was taken care of. They offered a matress on the floor but eventually provided what we booked. We tried to get information on Turtle watching but was only given a number to call. We did in the end book through the Hotel but drinks and water were not provided as per the trip details.
Review 51:Most staff were friendly and knowledgable. Rooms were clean but we found hair in the bed. Food was good value
Review 52:Unprofesssional approach of staff. I travelled with 4 families (all with small kids) and booked 4 double rooms. What I was given was twin beds joined together. If the rooms were not available, I should have been informed accordingly.
Review 53:Location Tour Planning with Jisha
Review 54:The food options was limited. The room light was not enough Suggest put mirror in the room
Review 55:Being far from the city "Muscat", the hotel in Sur village was beyond of our expectation because we were expecting the standard to be low. But the staying was pleasant and the standard was good. Its advisable for family and friends visits. Helpfull Staff.
Review 56:Hotel was good as per usual, great staff especially in the bar. Curry is great here too. Sur has some amazing local beauty close by - Wadi Tiwi, Wadi Shab, Wadi Arabaeein, Turtle beach. Fantastic.
Review 57:We travelled to Sur specifically to see the turtles. The man at the check in desk offered us a "special discount rate" to see them. We enquired at the time to make sure it was for a night viewing and a morning viewing to which we assured it was. After the night viewing we checked the time for the morning viewing and were told that we would have to pay full fare again! Very expensive 18OR for one short tour! The hotel wouldn't budge or even negotiate a deal for a morning tour. Not impressed at all!!!
Review 58:Average accommodation
Review 59:the location is on the edge of town. the car park was always full and congested as people would drive in to use the cash machine and block the car park. the view from rooms at the back was of a sheer rocky outcrop and the rear car park - not very nice. window is low level and and if opened completely could be very dangerous for young children. pool is too small. door key system is ancient, needs to be updated to a modern swipecard. room was a bit too small for our family.
Review 60:despite the decor of the hotel being a bit dated, the cleanliness and maintenance of hotel was excellent, couldn't fault the place at all! staff were exceptionally friendly and very helpful. I had requested an extra bed which I was given at no extra charge. restaurant was nice environment, breakfast had a reasonable selection, whole family was happy with. I would be happy to stay here again.
