Mutrah and Old Muscat are reachable by taxi along the coast road. The hotel follows the W brand's bold, modern aesthetic, a contrast with the traditional Omani architecture seen in the old town.

Amenities listed for the property include wifi, a pool, a spa, a fitness centre, a bar, a concierge, room service, a private beach element and airport transfers. The pool area is styled like a beach club, with lounging space and a social atmosphere. Dining centres on Char, a steakhouse restaurant, supported by other restaurants and a lively bar scene that sets W apart from many quieter Muscat hotels. Breakfast is typically offered as a buffet with international and regional dishes. The spa and fitness centre provide a counterbalance to the nightlife focus, giving guests options for relaxation. Service is youthful and design-conscious, with a concierge able to arrange desert, mountain and sea excursions. The hotel appeals to leisure travellers, couples and younger groups who want an energetic base, though business travellers also use it. Alcohol is served in licensed venues in Oman, which contributes to the bar atmosphere. Visitors should note that the surrounding Qurum area is more car-oriented than walkable in the summer heat, so taxis are typically used for evenings out. Overall, the property combines a beach-district setting, design-led interiors and a social pool and dining scene, positioning it as the more fashionable choice among Muscat's upscale hotels.
