Oman is located in the Middle East, bordering the Arabian Sea, Gulf of Oman, and Persian Gulf, between Yemen and UAE.

Muscat, the country's enchanting capital city, retains a traditional way of life, with an intriguing mix of the old and the new. The country's major industries include oil, natural gas, agriculture and fishing, although considerable attention has been given to tourism in the recent years.

Comprising three core districts, namely Muscat, Mutrah and Ruwi, each district functions as an influential entity that shapes modern-day Muscat society.

Muscat or the old port area is the site of His Majesty the Sultan's Palace. Old city walls that enclose the imperial residence and the harbour, offer visitors a glimpse of the city's rich past.

Just northwest of Muscat is Mutrah, the main trading and residential area, renowned as a haven for souvenir shopping.

Ruwi is the capital's thriving commercial district, which boasts all the comforts of contemporary everyday conveniences. Just a short distance from here, is The Chedi Muscat, which is located in the area of Al Khuwair, approximately 15-20km or a 10-minute drive from Seeb International Airport.

The climate in Muscat is arid with temperatures soaring to as high as 43 deg C in the day during summer, and as low as 17 deg C in the night during winter. This inadvertently creates a versatile environment for a variety of activities from shopping, to cultural expeditions and water-sports.

The city of Muscat has earned a reputation amongst travelers as a land of natural beauty and friendly smiles, making it an exotic retreat for avid holidaymakers.

Most major airlines have flights servicing Seeb International Airport in Muscat, which is 40 km from the capital's city centre, and a mere 12 miles or a 10-minute drive from The Chedi Muscat.

All visitors, except for citizens of Gulf countries or visitors with tourist visas to the UAE, would require visas prior to travel to Oman. Nationals of countries in the European Union, the Americas, Australia and New Zealand may obtain temporary visas on entry into Oman. When applying for a visa, visitors should also ensure that their passports have at least a 6-month validity period.

All rooms and suites at The Chedi Muscat are tastefully appointed with stylish bedrooms and most of them present scenic views of the Gulf of Oman or the majestic Haajjar mountains. Open-plan bathrooms with sizeable washbasins, rainforest showers, separate lavatory areas, wardrobes, bath robes, slippers and hairdryers are standard in-room amenities.
