Hanging Terraces | المدرجات المعلقة — Hotel in Al Batinah South Governorate

This is a wonderful property and highly recommended. The rooms are divided over several traditional buildings with wonderful views over the mountains. Rooms are all slightly different and well appointed. Very comfortable beds, good heating (we were there in winter), wifi (spotty in some paces due to the thick walls), kettle and coffee/tea, etc. We stayed in a suite with had a small courtyard, 2nd bedroom/bathroom and a separate living area. Eveything is clean and kept immaculate.||The location is excellent with the three villages walk on your doorstep. The town is close enough to walk to in about 10 minutes. If you need a pool, gym, or a drink you can get a day pass at the Anantara. The building next door has a small museum and a rooftop terrace.||Food is buffet style and excellent. Enough choice and mostly traditional Omani. Always one or more vegetarian options. ||Were this place shines though is the owners. Ali is a gracious host who will bend over backwards to make your stay perfect. Always making sure guests are comfortable and ready to offer suggestions for activities. E.g. my son had a sinus infection and he took as to the local hospital and had a family member drive medication not available in town from the Nizwa.||All in all, true Omani hospitality in a stunning setting. A special experience in a...

In a quaint village nestled in the Omani mountains, once a simple and quiet place for its residents, private houses have been transformed into guesthouses and turning the village into a captivating tourist destination without losing its charm. Through its thoughtful transformation, the village remains a harmonious blend of history, culture, and nature—an enchanting escape where every corner tells a story and where we felt – coming from the Italian Alps - a deep connection to its roots. We stayed in this historic home carefully renovated, offering visitors a cozy place to stay while still preserving the village’s heritage. The common areas are inviting and comfortable, making it easy to unwind at the end of the day and meet other guests from other parts of the world, aways an enriching experience. Spending time there, walking with a guide or by yourself while understanding the village’s and area’s history, have turned the destination into an immersive journey. Nature trails radiate out from the village, leading explorers to breathtaking viewpoints. Overall, Hanging Terraces was a delightful escape that we would highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience. The combination of excellent service, charming ambiance, and the cozy, homely feel makes it a...

I recently stayed at this hotel and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The service was outstanding from the moment I arrived – the staff were professional, kind, and always ready to help with a smile. The cleanliness of the entire place was impressive, especially the rooms which were spotless, well-maintained, and smelled fresh every day.

The quality of the place itself is top-notch. The interior design is modern and welcoming, and everything feels carefully thought out to provide comfort and luxury. The food was also a highlight – every meal was delicious, well-prepared, and beautifully presented. Whether it was breakfast or dinner, the variety and taste were excellent.

One of the best things about this hotel is its location. It’s in a beautiful area, very peaceful and close to everything you might need. The view from my room was breathtaking – I could see the surrounding landscape and it added so much to the experience.
