Date Palm Inn

Rooms were nice. Only the bathroom was very small with bad water preasure. Location was great, very quet but central and in walking distance of everything. The staff was nice. Breakfast is very basic and you have to payninncssh. In all other hotels visa was accepted

Huge private apartment to ourselves. Although daytime temperatures were 30+ degrees we could sleep with the bedroom door open and only the fan going not needing the A/C. Although parking was on the street it was easy and not crowded. Location, just behind the Nizwa Fort, could not be better but it was a little difficult to find the way in the first time. Friendly locals helped. Breakfast was adequate and reasonably priced. Tea and coffee available in courtyard as required.

We have stayed at the Date Palm Inn now on three occasions whilst visiting Nizwa, most recently in May 2022. The establishment is just usually used by travelers as a budget, no-frills stop-gap... most guests that we have met there, arrive around 6pm and are gone by first light... But my family and I love this place... the rooms are basic but clean, there is good Wi-Fi connectivity, you can pre-book breakfast on the day of your arrival (that's because the workers have to go and buy the ingredients for the next morning), so we never do, also the kitchen is very basic to say the least. To be frank, the stay is not so much as a hotel stay, or even a guesthouse, but more like one of those stays around a distant distant uncle or auntie's house, workers are there but just pottering around minding there own business, and you are pretty much left to your own devices...we do help ourselves to the kettle and make a cuppa. The highlight for us is that the Inn has a small petty farm on-site, including goats, sheep, chicken, ducks, plus of course cats. My children aged 9 and 8 years old love this aspect of our stay, and the fact that they can get so up and close to the animals. The two workers that live on-site allowed my children access, this visit they helped to milk the goats and then bottle-fed the newly born kids... it was a truly amazing experience. The Date Palm Inn is centrally located, nestled within the heart of Nizwa old-town, taking a vehicle to the location can be a bit of a challenge navigating very narrow winding streets, but all part of the fun. For my family, staying at this hotel has very much become a feature of our visits to Nizwa, if you visit and stay be prepared for an amazing but basic experience!

Date Palm Inn is a hidden gem indeed. Although it looks a bit shabby outside, you get exactly what you need for a short stay in Nizwa: close proximity to Nizwa Fort and central market, nice minimalistic design of guest rooms, a garden, and an opportunity to make your own barbeque and shisha in the evening. Good omelet for breakfast is a nice touch too.

Une belle résidence Omanaise , très bonne située. Le jardin est magnifique. Nous avions deux chambres, un coins détente chambre et une petite salle de bain WC assez rudimentaire mais propre. L'emplacement est idéal. La seule chose que nous regrettons, c'est le petit déjeuner très basique (omelette, pain, jus, café soluble et fruits) qui est facturé (6/7€) Je conseil vivement le lieu mais pas le petit déjeuner

Das Hotel liegt relativ nahe zum Zentrum, alles zu Fuß möglich. - Das Zimmer war geräumig, Bad und Klo separat für uns. - Parkplatz z.T. im Gelände möglich, sonst problemlos auf der Straße. - Frühstück im Pavillon mit Palmen etc. - Freundliches Personal, etwas schwierig das Englisch zu verstehen. Nicht gefallen · Der Abfluss im Bad stank etwas. Das Bad müsste dringend renoviert werden. Im Schlafzimmer nur eine Nachttischlampe auf einer Seite. - Das Frühstück eher einfach, aber für OMR 2,5 (=ca. € 6,25) in Ordnung.

Il s’agit d’une maison omanaise transformée en chambres d’hôtes, le patron est très sympathique et disponible pour répondre aux questions. Il nous a bien conseillé pour les visites. La maison est idéalement située pour aller à pieds au souk. Quelques places disponibles devant la maison pour se garer.
