The project, being developed by Eagle Hills Muscat — a partnership between Eagle Hills Abu Dhabi and Izz International, will be managed by Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group. Mandarin Oriental, Muscat — set to open in 2021 — will feature 150 guestrooms and suites, five restaurants and bars, the Spa at Mandarin Oriental, and an outdoor swimming pool. The project will also comprise 156 Residences that are being introduced for the first time in the region and will feature some of the most select private apartments in the capital ranging from 75 to 260 square metres in size. A variety of banqueting and meeting spaces will also be available to accommodate social and business events, in addition to a one-of-a-kind ballroom offering spectacular views of the Oman Sea. Low Ping, CEO of Eagle Hills, commented: “The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Muscat will provide the first high-end branded residence in Oman. Located in a prime city location on the beach, the development will offer the height of living and feature a beautiful low-rise architectural design inspired by Oman’s cultural legacy. In order to deliver upon our quality promise, we will be working with the experienced team at HSSG, which shares our dedication to delivering the very best in the market.” With foundation engineering capabilities spanning civil infrastructure, commercial and housing projects, and engineering and management consulting, HSSG offers a comprehensive range of services for large-scale foundation projects throughout the region.

The company is currently developing projects in Bahrain, Jordan, Morocco, Oman, Serbia and the UAE.
