Oman’s 3-5 Star Hotel Revenues Rise by 6.2% in 2024

Muscat – The revenues of three to five-star hotels in Oman saw a notable increase of 6.2% by the end of December 2024, reaching RO 243.4 million compared to RO 229.3 million recorded at the end of December 2023.

The rise in revenue reflects the continued growth of the tourism sector in Oman, supported by increased visitor arrivals and enhanced promotional efforts by the Ministry of Heritage and Tourism. Higher occupancy rates and strategic tourism initiatives contributed to this upward trend, further positioning Oman as a key destination in the region.

Industry experts attribute this growth to the expansion of luxury hospitality offerings, improved services, and targeted marketing campaigns that have attracted more international and regional travelers. The government’s commitment to boosting tourism through global partnerships and events has also played a crucial role in driving demand for premium accommodations.

The positive performance of Oman’s hospitality sector aligns with the country’s broader economic diversification goals under Oman Vision 2040, which emphasizes tourism as a major contributor to national revenue.

As the sector continues to expand, stakeholders anticipate further investments in high-end hospitality infrastructure, ensuring sustained growth in the coming years.
