Al Bustan Palace to Al Alam Palace
The taxi turned onto a beautiful road lined with greenery on both sides. This scenic route leads to the Al Bustan Palace, which has been associated with the Ritz-Carlton for the past decade. The driver mentioned that this hotel is a source of pride for Oman, as it is owned collectively by the people of Oman.
One of the key things about this hotel is its heritage. It is a real palace. The royal family manages some floors, and that is why it’s called Al Bustan Palace.
Al Bustan Palace is far more than a hotel. First opened in 1985, the hotel opened to host the Gulf Cooperation Council Summit that year. Designed to represent Oman culture and hospitality at the highest level, the hotel has become an icon, a landmark, and a prideful embodiment of the Sultanate’s culture
