Very nice place, spotlessly clean, traditional building, great breakfast! Just in the center of the old town, 1' from the museum, wonderful area to walk at night.

The bad: The Booking.com description is very misleading. Toilets smell of faeces. There is no pool or anything like it, just an enclosed gravel parking lot. The heat pump doesn’t heat.
The walls of the structure are thin, like a shed. The neighbourhood had construction noises at 6:30am. There is no wi-fi. No TV.
There were no towels (because of covid said the owner). He said he’d bring some but did not. There is only one sheet on the bed, under you, so your skin touches the blanket. Price was high, but most places nearby were even higher. What was notable was how little you get for your money.
The description really must be changed, it is incorrect in so many ways.
The good: The room is big. The kitchen had pots and pans and cooking stove. Parking was inside the locked gated compound. There were two blankets. There were not too many roaches or mosquitoes.
Very close to trailheads. Cafe a 15 min walk uphill.
Situated in Al Ḩamrāʼ, Sehma Guest House features accommodation with a heated pool, a terrace and mountain views. The property has city and quiet street views.

The host was great, helpful and friendly. After my tiring hike took me to the restaurant by car and next day much further (to Bahla) than the standard drop-off point. He was also very knowledgeable about hiking routes. There is also a lot if information material available.
Room was spacious (even if it was full it would still be comfortable) and clean, so was the rest of the apartment. Kitchen is well-equipped. Views from my window were ok, nice mountain view, but also some building sites close by. Location was great for me, but it is not in the old Al-Hamra.
Al Hamra Guest House is set in Al Hamra, 32 km from Nizwa, boasts air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi throughout the property. You will find a kettle in the room.

We stayed in Old Al Hamra at the Al Bait Aljabal Hospitality Inn which was wonderful. Beautifully artistically decorated. The very helpful owner found a local guide for us Abdul Rahman Alabri to take us in his 4x4 to Jebel Shams to do the Balcony Walk. AbdulRachman was truly excellent with a lovely kind personality. Very informative. I would never have managed the Balcony Walk without him as, although a hill walker, I can experience a fear of heights. The Balcony Walk has big drops on it though you are never truly exposed. Being with a local guy who knew what he was doing gave me confidence. His cousin owns a lovely cafe Saef in amongst the palm trees in old Al Hamra. You really are away from the commercial side of tourism there. Al Hamra can act as a base for many other places in the mountains. Easy to get to Misfah for example

Traditional and very quite place in the middle of a small heritage village. Friendly and helpful staff. As a family of five, we had booked two rooms. One with bathroom, the other one had shared bathroom on the floor. All very clean and comfortable to use. Great old style Omani flair within the house. Definitely suitable for families and well located to have day trips around the area as there is plenty to see and all nearby. 24/7 access, however, check-in before 11pm recommended. We would have appreciated a breakfast included in our price.

Both Al Hamra and Misfat al Abriyeen are Not to be missed.
Both Al Hamra and Misfat al Abriyeen are Not to be missed.
Please consider that the property is not in Al Hamra but Misfat al Abriyeen. The 2 villages are near but totally different with totally different things to do and see (Al Hamra or THE Red is and old village on a plain with red mud houses. A traditional house,completely restored, built in the Yemeni style, offers a glimpse into the lifestyle of traditional Oman. Misfat is only a few km away but on top of a gorge and wadi. The tour of the village through small alleys, winding stairs, pools of water and a working falaj system is mesmerising.
Very new apartment building. Rooms are big and with lift. Bed is big and comfortable. Little kitchen not a full stove but the small induction plate can boil food. Fridge is convenient to chill friut and drinks for hiking. Wifi is available in every room. Good enough for browsing (but not for videos)
Location is excellent easy access to Jebel Shams and the village of Misfa Al Abriyyin.
Many shops and restaurants nearby and there is always free water, coffee and dates in the lobby.
Hamza was an absolutely incredible host for our stay in his hotel. We received great tips on where to go and when from him, and the home cooked dinner was one to remember.
The hotel itself has a fantastic vibe between how it is painted and decorated, and of course the terrace overlooking the palms and farmland. The room was a great size, outfit with a fridge and a comfortable bed. We were at ease and relaxed the entire time.
Al Hamra Horizons was a great stay towards the end of our trip in Oman. There was easy parking in front of the hotel, the rooms are spacious and clean, and all of our needs were easily accommodated. Our host, Ahmed, took time to sit with us at night engaging in conversation and sharing his beautiful culture. It was easy to get to Jebel Shams, Misfat, Nizwa and more from this location. I would definitely recommend it to friends!
Great location and authentic hotel.
Perfect to explore surroundings and jebel chams
Rooms are basic, but clean and nicely decorated.
Nice roof terrace.
Breakfast is toast, eggs and apple/fruits.
The owner will make sure you have a good stay and give you advice on how to explore the area. Make sure to rent a scooter from him and explore the small pathways between the palms.
We stayed at the hotel for 3 nights. Good sound insulation despite the fact that the hotel is located on one of the central streets. Spacious and clean room. Comfortable beds. There are fly screens on the windows. The kitchen is equipped with everything necessary. We had breakfast and dinner in the room. You can order food from nearby restaurants.
The inn was of mud brick and nicely decorated. Our room was very comfortable. The bathroom was very clean and the shower was lovely and hot. The location was great, near a deserted mud brick village and a date plantation. It was a short walk into town. From the Inn it’s a short drive to Misfah La Abriyyin, which is definitely worth a visit.
Everything was exceptional. The owner is so kind and has built a beautiful hotel. The rooms are sparkling clean and very cozy. The hotel itself it beautiful and has plenty of places to read a book, gather, and enjoy your time. Also it’s very near the old city of Al Hamra which is beautiful to walk around under the palm trees.
The hotel is located Inside very calm and green area of Al Hamra. For those who would like to experience the life inside traditional old house this place will be a devine experience. I wish more people write their honest opinion about this place. Very humble and friendly owner.
I don’t know where to start, the stay was just perfect.
The hotel is an authentic Omani architecture in the middle of the oasis field, the terrace is awesome for tea or reading a book. Hamza - the owner is a great host, very helpful and full with good vibes
Best stay in Oman
very clean, all equipments work perfectly, owner of hotel is very helpful, help me a lot with everything i need, beautiful rooms and spaces to talk to new friends, good rooftop view, peaceful absolutely, from this location you can easily to get a hitchhike to Misfat for free
The view has indeed amazing views! We really enjoyed our stay here.
It is important to note: You need a 4x4 car to get to the hotel. In our case, the hotel organized a pick-up which worked out very well.
This new traditional family hotel is very well located, facing a beautiful palm grove and fields, the staff (Hamza and his brother Ahmed) is very welcoming.
A wonderful dip into omani hospitality culture
This is the first place in Misfah. It's in the lower part of the village. We stayed at the "New Master Bedroom" with a nice view over the valley. We enjoyed the room, the dinner and the breakfast.
