Cleaning and comfort
Legacy Hostel is an amazing hostel. The staff is super friendly and helpful, the rooms are spotless and comfortable, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. I loved the Terrasse and common areas. It’s perfect for relaxing or meeting other travelers. Great location too, close to everything you need. They offer amazing tours as well! If you’re visiting Muscat, I can’t recommend this place enough.
Tout L’accueil par Lou était au top même si nous sommes arrivées très tard le soir il nous a attendue. Zohair est au petit soin et nous a guidé de loin Le hostel est très bien situé . Bref je voulais prolonge mon séjours rien que pour rester dans l’auberge Je reviendrai sûrement Si je pouvais mettre plus de 10 je le mettrai
Rien
C’est comme à la maison. J’ai été accueillie par un plat tunisien qu’on a partagé tous ensemble dans la cuisine! Zouhaier, Tigani et Lou s’assurent que tout va bien et n’hésitent pas à partager plein d’informations et de conseils. Ils m’ont même conduite à plusieurs endroits. Ils participent à créer une atmosphère chaleureuse et qui met à l’aise. Gros plus: ils proposent tout un tas de packages en petit groupe de visites/expériences des lieux principaux (îles, Wadi Shan, Nizwa…) ce qui est très utile étant donné qu’il est difficile d’atteindre ces lieux sans voiture. Le lieu est paisible, bien placé et le salon est idéal pour rencontrer les autres guests. Les dortoirs et salle de bain sont propres (les filles ont même une salle de bain prévue dans le dortoir) et les lits confortables (un peu ferme pour les inhabitués). Les lits du bas ont des rideaux (mais pas ceux du haut). Je recommande définitivement cet hostel ! C’est un moyen de découvrir l’essentiel de Muscate et ses environs, de rencontrer d’autres voyageurs avec une super ambiance! Rapport qualité/prix, il n’y a rien à dire: il est très bon.
Petit problème de wifi qui est hors de leur contrôle en cours de réparation
Oman stole my heart – such a beautiful country, with kind, respectful, and genuine people. I’m especially grateful to the amazing team at Legacy Hostel for their warmth, honesty, and incredible hospitality. Even though I arrived late, everything was handled perfectly. A special thank you to Lu, who connected me with Mohammed, a certified guide and a truly kind, honest, and noble-hearted person. Thanks to him, I had thee unforgettable amazing incredible special days in Oman ❤️ Legacy Hostel feels like a second home – full of positive energy, cultural exchange, and real human connection. And please take care of the sweet spotted cat – she’s the heart of the place! Your friend Monica 🎨
Il sofà delle zone comuni. Staff molto simpatico

القائمين عالمكان شباب جميل ومرحبين
هو مع وجود أشخاص كتير مش دايما باعرف أركز بس المكان بشكل عام هاديء، ونظافة الحمام المشترك مش دايما بتكون أحسن حاجة. بس دي طبيعة ال dormitory في أي مكان، والشباب بيجتهدوا يخلوا المكان نظيف
Breakfast place is not very close but 200 m walk
I like nature the man of caring the hostel
Die Besitzer waren sehr nett.
Property is awesome , specially the staff Lou. Awesome and helpful man
Karşılayan arkadaş herşey için yardimci oldu.
Banyo ve lavabo çok fazla temiz degildi
Charming Stay at Legacy Hostel – Friendly Staff, Great Kitchen, and Relaxed Vibe! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a great time at Legacy Hostel in Muscat! The staff were amazing — warm, friendly, and always ready to help with recommendations or anything you might need. The atmosphere here is super relaxed, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring or coming back from excursions. The kitchen is fully equipped, making it easy to cook your own meals if you want to save a bit of money or just enjoy a cozy night in. It’s a great place to meet fellow travelers while cooking or hanging out in the common areas. Overall, Legacy Hostel is the perfect mix of comfort, convenience, and great hospitality. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a chill, affordable place to stay in Muscat!
While Legacy Hostel in Muscat offers a comfortable stay, the location isn’t ideal for those looking to walk to attractions. The hostel is quite far from most key sites, and you’ll need a car or a taxi to get anywhere, including the beach. Additionally, there are a fair number of cats around the property, which some guests might find charming, but others could be bothered by their presence.
I really like the way people sit together and chat. The location is prime and at the city centre: The host was very kind and helpful
Everything was good homely vibes
老板人很好
Al good , exceeded the expectations .
Facilities , Cleanliness . Ambience
The caretaker from Tunisia is a very good man, friendly and supportive. He also ensured our comfort during the stay at the hostel. I would always recommend him and the legacy hostel to others visiting Oman.
La amabilidad del personal para aconsejarte sobre las actividades en Oman, además todas las instalaciones contaban con aire acondicionado y el área de la cocina tenía todo lo necesario para preparar las comidas. También un plus que dispone de servicio de lavandería.

I had an excellent stay at this hostel. The owner was incredibly hospitable, always ready to help with directions, recommendations, and anything else I needed. The room was clean, the atmosphere was welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend.
Bad experience
Top place, people are really friendly, helpful, you can always receive help. Really recommended for backpackers, common rooms were open for everyone. You can also meet some cats!
Juste parfait ✌🏼
The room, living area, and bathroom were all very clean and comfortable, but what truly made the experience special was the host’s hospitality and the warmth of the people there. The host even let me work late at night in the living room—despite the fact that it’s where he sleeps—and he offered me ice cream too! I was so impressed by his hospitality and professionalism. I honestly wish I could have stayed longer. I would love to come back to Muscat just to stay here again. Thank you so much!
Good stay, nice staff, highly recommended
Assolutamente tutto!!!! Personale sempre gentile ed accogliente e struttura centrale e pulita. Ambiente molto famigliare e confortevole. Consigliatissimo!!!
Nulla da dire.
From the moment I arrived I was made to feel really at home. The kitchen facilities are great, with lots provided.. I was even given a meal when I arrived, tho this is not to be expected. The atmosphere is relaxed and accepting. The women's dorm room spacious & cool with attached bathroom. I appreciated the curtain for my lower bunk bed and had the best sleeps. Great experience exploring Muscat with other inmates. Tho fiercly hot outside it was cool inside throughout. Can't praise I highly enough! Thanks for a wonderful home in Muscat. Speaking of which - lots of puss-cats in Muscat and a couple of mus-kittens were born at the hostel.
Less than perfect is the location. Altho there are shops nearby an Uber was needed to get anywhere else of interest. I didn't use the bus systems.
The owner is nice, the common space is cozy and comfortable.
My bed (upper-bed) was just below the airconditionar and it was freezing. I was given a thick blanket when I checked in and I was curious why, but later I found it. I felt like I could catch a cold but I understand the onwer tried to solve the problem.
Très bon hostel. Toutes les pièces sont climatisées. Le personnel est très gentil et toujours disponible pour vous aider. J’ai pu faire mon check-in plus tôt que prévu. Merci à eux et je recommande cet hostel
Legacy Hostel is a great place for a backpacker visiting Muscat on a budget. In the summer months it was an oasis to walk into and feel the strong AC to give you a break from the heat. Beds were comfortable. Lou at the front desk was super welcoming and helpful, answered any questions about things to do and places to visit. I would definitely recommend to any traveller!
Honestly had such a good time here! The hostel has this chill, friendly vibe that makes you feel at home straight away. Met some amazing people , lou was super helpful, Beds were comfy, showers were hot, and the location was perfect for wandering around. Already missing it and kinda wish I could’ve stayed longer.”
I like the hospitality of the host Lou. He is great, always helpful and always available.

The stay was wonderful, very clean n neat hostel, I met amazing people there, For solo travellers also its best choice. I liked the host very helpful m supportive. Thankyou for lovely stay experienced local culture.
Excellent 24x7 service and friendly staff.
النزل حلو بشكل عام.
وجه المخده لم يستبدل وكان عليه بقع!! مفارش السرير كانت ناقصة، ربما من غير قصد.
Clean, nice, meet nice people, the host was great
Great location and comfortable accommodation. The bunk bed was sturdy and didn’t make any noise — perfect for a good night’s sleep. The host was very kind and even allowed me to take a shower later the same day after checkout. Highly appreciated!
fast check in even around 8 am, pretty good facilities! highly recommend!
The common area was cozy to hang out. Room is clean and comfortable. The host is very nice and gives good tips
The vibes , the people , the kitchen , availability of cooking your own food , warm welcoming
No thing , every thing is exceptional
The place is not so nice, breakfast was not available to buy. The place is quite dirty. There were hairs on the pillow and mattress. People there are strange, talking on the phone loudly at 2 am, switching on light at 1 am. Someone tried to come to my sleeping place at midnight - door open and everyone can come any time? Why did no one meet the person and tell him where to sleep? I booked a hostel just to sleep (from 10 pm to 6 am), but I was able to sleep only 4-5 hours a day due to continuous disturbing.
بالطبع! إليك تعليقًا مميزًا وجميلًا باللغة الإنجليزية يمكنك استخدامه: ☺️Staying at Legacy Hostel in Muscat was truly an unforgettable experience. From the warm hospitality to the spotless rooms and peaceful ambiance, everything exceeded my expectations. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel at home from the moment I arrived. It’s rare to find a place that combines comfort, cleanliness, and charm so perfectly. I would highly recommend this gem to any traveler visiting Oman. Thank you for making my stay so special – I’ll definitely be coming back!🤗 إذا أردت نسخة مختصرة أو تعليق موجه لمنصة معينة مثل Google أو Booking أو Airbnb، أخبرني وسأعدّلك النسخة المناسبة.

🤗☺️❤... إقامتي في Legacy Hostel في مسقط كانت أكثر من رائعة. شعرت براحة كبيرة منذ اللحظة الأولى، ولهذا السبب قمت بتمديد الإقامة عدة مرات. السعر مناسب جدًا مقارنة بجودة الإقامة، والنظافة ممتازة، والمكان هادئ ومريح. أكثر ما أعجبني هو الأجواء العائلية بين الضيوف، فقد أصبحنا كأننا أسرة واحدة نتشارك الحديث والضحك واللحظات الجميلة. أشكر طاقم العمل على حسن الاستقبال والاهتمام، ولن أتردد أبدًا في العودة مرة أخرى. شكرا زهير. وشكر بحجم الكون للرائع لؤي
noooooooo at all
نظافه وهدوء بعيد عن صخب المدينه ، كل الخدمات متوفره ، والأفضل من كل هذا هو السعر مناسب جدا
Very spacious, very clean, the gentleman who works there can tell the history of Oman like a tour guide and helps with transportation and food. We can say that a place close to most locations can be stayed for months, summers are cold and winters are hot.
very hot during the day and high humidity at night
Lou was super friendly and helpful during my stay — exactly what I needed. His support really made a difference.
NA
the people and the services I received before, during and even after left the place and county.
probabily and extra toilet, like a general one.
非常棒的旅馆,卫生干净,工作人员非常热心,随和,随时提供帮助!厨房可以做饭,交通也方便,附近有超市和换钱商店,去机场的巴士站也很近。院子可以晾晒衣服。
A shower in the room and an additional one in the hallway. Quiet and peaceful atmosphere. Cozy environment. Polite staff and manager. Great location. A kitchen equipped with everything necessary.
My bed was facing the air conditioner, so I had to adjust it to direct the airflow in a different direction in order to sleep comfortably. Everything went well.
The host is very nice. Best rooms and clean place also excellent to meet n greet new people

كانت تجربه جميله حقيقه تشعر انك في عائله الجميع متعاون مع الجميع وشكرا اخ لؤي يساعد كل شيء يقدر عليه
كل شيء كان جيد
- Lou (Gasmilouay) is perhaps the best hostel manager I have ever met in my travels over 90 countries. He is helpful not only in taking care of your needs while at the hostel but also arranges tours/ taxis for you/ guides you well. - clean hostel with every amenity possible including mineral water dispenser that you can use to fill your bottles up for the day.
Not applicable - everything was perfect
I had a wonderful stay at Heritage Hostel! The place was very clean, and the atmosphere felt just like home from the moment I arrived. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and comfortable the entire time, which made my trip so much more enjoyable. The owner was incredibly helpful and kind, always available to assist or offer suggestions. One of the best parts of my stay was the friendly, welcoming environment—I made many good friends during my time there, and it really enhanced the experience. I’ll definitely be visiting again soon and would highly recommend Heritage Hostel to anyone looking for a warm, safe, and social place to stay.
Everything was good
I spent five great days at Legacy Hostel and felt like home. I already miss my little hostel family. The ladies dorm was very clean and spacious with an own bathroom that was kept very clean. What I liked most was the comunal area where you always found someone to chat and connect and plan trips together. Also there were many cute cats <3
The cats were a bit annoying sometimes.
Everyone at the hostel, from staff to other guests, was friendly and accommodating. The room and bathroom were kept very clean and the bunk beds were cozy (I found them quite comfortable, I like a good firm mattress). Communication with the owner and manager was easy before and during our stay, and we shared some meals and engaging conversations with our host and the other guests. Easy and cheap to take a taxi out for sightseeing/restaurants/etc., and I liked being a quiet neighborhood. In short, this was the perfect place for 5 friends to stay while exploring Muscat for a couple days.
ممتاز و موفر
الحياه البسيطه ولمه الجميع
Staying at Legacy Hostel was such a special part of my time in Oman. Lulu was an incredibly kind and genuine host who created an easygoing, welcoming space where I met amazing people from all over the world. One of the highlights was a laid-back, unforgettable day at Wadi Shab—good vibes, good people, and memories I’ll hold onto. Even though I didn’t get to meet Zouhaier, the owner, he was so kind and patient through WhatsApp, helping me get everything set up before I arrived. It really meant a lot and set the tone for the whole experience
A very cozy and warm place with a truly friendly atmosphere. It’s easy to feel at home here. ⠀ I met wonderful people from all over the world, and we quickly became good friends. This place is not just for resting — it's for meaningful connections and great conversations. ⠀ I want to give special thanks to Louay and Zouhaier — incredibly kind, caring, and attentive people. Always ready to help, support, or simply have a kind conversation. They brought a truly warm energy to the hostel. ⠀ Everything is clean, comfortable, and the location is great. If you're looking for a place where you can feel like you're among friends — this is it. ⠀ Thank you for a beautiful time. I’ll definitely come back!
Perfect hostel to stay in Muscat. Comfy, clean and very communal.
L’auberge est impeccablement propre, et le propriétaire est vraiment sympathique et toujours disponible, à l’écoute de ses clients. L’ambiance est chaleureuse, on s’y sent comme chez soi. Un grand merci à Zouhair et Louay pour avoir rendu mon séjour fluide et agréable !

2025年6月現在オーナーさんのいとこさんが管理していてすごくフレンドリーな方でした。 彼の人柄もあって泊まっている人たちもみんな仲良くなってみんなでワイワイ楽しみました!掃除も毎日していて綺麗でした。
特になし。
أتقدم بخالص الشكر والتقدير لإدارة فندق [Legacy Hostel] على حسن الاستقبال وكرم الضيافة خلال فترة إقامتي القصيرة. لقد كانت الليلة التي قضيتها في الفندق مريحة ومميزة، ووجدت كل سبل الراحة والنظافة والتنظيم، مما يعكس احترافية طاقم العمل وجودة الخدمة المقدمة. أشكركم مرة أخرى، وأتمنى لكم دوام التوفيق والنجاح، وسأحرص على ترشيح فندقكم لكل من يبحث عن إقامة راقية ومريحة. مع أطيب التحيات، [المهندس عمار سيد من مصر]
Une expérience inoubliable dans ce lieu chaleureux, convivial et très très bien géré. Je recommande grandement cette adresse dont la propreté, l’ambiance, la localisation et le prix en font l’une des meilleurs hostels que j’ai visité. Merci à Lou et Zouhaier pour les souvenirs, j’espère revenir un jour.
The accommodation, the staff, the other travellers
I took with them a trip to Wadi Shab, I was told that everything was safe in there however, someone stole about 200 usd from my backpack while we were swimming in pool. Nobody took care of me, and they blamed me that was my fault. So be careful
