Breakfast was good overall, but there are a few areas that could be improved. There was only one person making omelettes, which caused delays during busy times. Additionally, the croissants and pastries were not served warm, which is something I would expect at a 4-star hotel.
Furthermore, we were disappointed to find out that the swimming pool was under maintenance for a month, and we were not informed prior to confirming our booking. This was a surprise and affected our stay, as we had planned to use the pool during our visit.

Barcelo Hotel, previously the Millenium Hotel, is really one of the hotels that I enjoyed staying at. It is relaxing, far from the city noise. I enjoy the food, the stroll along the beach, the accommodating staffs, and the comfy rooms. I will keep coming back here.

Nice place but casual in lot of aspect.
Nice place but casual in lot of aspect. Allotment of correct rooms as per booking, not being dishonest about giving a faulty room ( at least apologise for randomly joining two single beds and pushing it as double bed.Actually There should be a refund for wrong room. There was a lamp shade hitting your head in centre, no side table, no universal charging points, cleanliness questionable, bed crawling with ants by night etc).
Food menu ( BF, Dinner) requires improvement to cater to larger audience.

The location and the beach was so grate.
The check in was so bad they ask you to pay in advance at the time of check in which is so bad .They have no trust on customers .
The furniture in the rooms is out dated. Cleaning need more attention.
I am sorry to see this standard of the hotel in a such beautiful place.

what I like is the tranquil atmosphere and the balcony view rooms.
what I didn't like is that the hotel needs major renovation and maintenance for the rooms and the carpets to be changed as it smells of mould. and the food in restaurants needs to be updated as its been years with the same menu, also they need to find ways to make the food more hygienic and to be covered.
We only stayed at the Barceló Hotel for a short time as we were leaving the next day for Salalah in the south. The standard of accommodation was excellent, the staff were lovely and friendly. Breakfast tasty and very rich. I was surprised by the large number of compatriots, Czech tourists. We liked the heated pools the gently sloping sandy private beach. Price level higher compared to other accommodation in other parts of Oman, but otherwise we can highly recommend.
Hotel has a privileged location and the amenities are well maintained.
Personnel is really friendly are always keen to provide the best service.
Food variety is realy nice, and the conditions of the food court are well maintained.
Available outside kids activities and water sports are really good.
The hotel is situated on the coastline, which is pretty rare for Oman. Within 200 kilometers from Sohar to Muscat there are just a few similar options.
