CENTARA Hotels & Resorts has signed a management contract for its second east property in the Middle East – Centara Muscat Hotel.
Expected to open on June 1, 2015, the hotel is situated in the Oman’s capital of Muscat and owned by Irfan International Hotel Limited.
“We have a strong marketing organisation within the Middle East, along with a very large customer base, and having a hotel in Oman is a strategic advantage for us,” says Chris Bailey, senior vice president for sales and marketing at Centara Hotels & Resorts.
“Our guest mix will be both leisure and business, and the hotel facilities will reflect this.”
Centara Muscat Hotel will offer 154 guestrooms, with two F&B outlets, a swimming pool, a spa and a fitness centre. The hotel will also include extensive meeting facilities.
Centara announced its expansion into the Middle East in February earlier this year, having secured management rights to open Centara Grand West Bay Hotel Doha (TTG Asia e-Daily, February 26, 2014).
