"It was my first time booking this staycation, and I really had a great experience. The room was very clean, elegant, and relaxing. The location is also perfect — just a short walk to the beach. The owner was very friendly and accommodating. I truly enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back."

I had a very enjoyable stay at Dar Shaden hostel and the people running this house made my Oman trip unforgettable. I got to go on a camping trip with the team to Jabal Sham and this was my most favorite experience in Oman. If you plan to go explore anywhere in Oman, dont hesitate to ask them. Maybe they can arrange their time and get you there (with a fee), much better than joining a tour. The hostel is very clean, new and well maintained. Big living room, kitchen is fully equipped. The location is near the airport, around 10km. The hosts of the house are truly kind and always willing to help. They made me feel welcoming and at home. I booked 1 night and ended up staying 3 nights. I was so sad to leave. Thank you Osama, Nuri and Abrar

Amazing experience in Mascat thanks to Basel and his brothers that made the hostel feel like home. Always something going on in the hostel, barbecue, shared dinners, I felt welcome and met so many amazing travelers and Omanis (and Ricardo the cat !!). I am really looking for clean places after having bad experiences in the past. The dorms are very clean, you get fresh bed sheets, a locker to secure your stuff, the living room and kitchen are big and well equipped. There is also an outdoor sitting area that is the best for evening talks and tea! The hostel is located in a quiet residential area close to restaurants and stores, and 15 min ride from the airport.

When you live there, we don't get the freedom that we get by paying for it. The behavior there is like living in someone's house for free. The owner of the place doesn't show any respect to us for paying to stay there, he gives it to everyone for free.

All hostels in Muscat

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

Absolute best hostel in whole Muscat! Kaab, the guy running the place is well- spoken , helpfull ( beyond what is expected) and flexible. As a solo traveler, it feels safe , to have such a person's whatsapp number if you get in situations where you dont understand what is going or trouble in anyway, anywhere! The place is the only 10/10 and very priceworthy! Totally recommend it !

The room was spacious, with air conditioning and fan. The owner is really friendly and helpful. It is a quiet and clean hostel with a pleasant atmosphere. The area around has a lot of restaurant and shops. The bed, still being a bunk bed, was quite confrtable.
