Sur Hotel
Clean, cheap family rooms in the middle of Sur souq — the budget key to the whole east coast.
What you'll do
Sur Hotel is the classic budget stop: simple, clean family rooms right in Sur's souq and shopping streets, minutes from the corniche, with beds from around OMR 16–25.
It's nothing fancy — friendly staff, air-conditioning, hot showers, free WiFi — but as a base it unlocks everything: the dhow factory across town, Al Ayjah lighthouse over the bay, turtles at Ras Al Jinz in 45 minutes, and Wadi Shab on the drive home.
For families who'd rather spend the budget on adventures than pillows, this is the one.
🎒 Bring & wear
Nothing special — there's a minimarket in the hotel and the souq outside the door.
💡 Family tips
- Ask for a room away from the street side if your kids are light sleepers
- The souq and corniche are an easy evening stroll
- Pair one night here with the 9pm Ras Al Jinz turtle tour — 45 minutes each way
