Great hotel, but not good bathrooms.
Good hotel for the price and a bit in the middle of nowhere - around 20mins away from Nizwa town but manageable if you’re driving. Get a Garden room as the pool room balconies face the pool and no privacy. We had a car so drove into town or locally to get food so we didn’t eat lunch or dinner, but their brekkie was fantastic esp crepes, fried eggs and fluffy pancakes. Staff are amazing and can’t do enough for you. The worst part of the hotel are the bathrooms - very dated, old and don’t work properly.

1 night business stay
I stayed for one night in November 2019. The hotel is of a good 4 star standard and is the only comparable hotel for miles around. The staff could not have been more helpful, the rooms are large, well equipped And very comfortable. There are great views of the mountains and you are about a 15 minute drive from Nizwa. The Outdoor pool at the centre of the hotel Is well maintained and a lovely sun trap.

It’s fine but really nothing more
Don’t expect much. The hotel is a bed to sleep in for a night before heading elsewhere. The bed is not great, the pillows very uncomfortable, the fridge so loud it was hard to sleep and there’s the added bonus of a bright green ‘emergency exit’ light in the room itself. Oh and we were woken up by a wake-up call we didn’t order. I can’t really recommend it but the choices in Nizwa are limited. It’s not awful, it’s just not very good.

A nice stay in Nizwa
We spent 2 nights here, and enjoyed our stay. The hotel looks like its best days are behind it, I'm sure a grand old dame at one point in time. Our room was very well sized and had a comfortable bed overlooking the pool. Free parking and helpful staff. Prices for dining including breakfast and dinner are exhorbitant, particularly for Oman. We stayed in some a high end hotel in Muscat and paid a lot less there for what the GT was asking. They need to work on their pricing, because no one in their sane mind would pay what they were asking. It is located 9kms outside of Nizwa, so something to be conscious of if you're not driving.

Nice hotel in a rather remote town. Good restaurant, which is convenient, because you are on the outskirts of the town. Looks to be a bit of an older property, but well maintained.

Hotel near Nizwa
We had a great stay at the Golden Tulip. The hotel has a great swimming pool, spacious rooms and a great atmosphere. It is a good distance outside of Nizwa, but none of the hotels in Nizwa are near the souk or the fort, so since most people will need to drive anyway, this hotel is a good choice. It also made a good jumping of place for Al Hamra and Misfa as that is a back way that allows you to miss the Nizwa traffic. We also made an easy day trip to Jabrin. So the hotel is well located!

Our 3rd visit and we'll be back again - love it!
Our 3rd stay at this lovely hotel over 4 years and it won't be our last. It is slightly dated but spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The pool area is the perfect place to relax after exploring the stunning mountains or Nizwa town itself. A word of caution though, it is a good 10-15 minute drive from Nizwa town and there are no restaurants within walking distance. However, the food in the hotel is excellent to suit all tastes so that's not really a problem. Try to include a Thursday night's stay in order to get up early and go to the Friday animal market in Nizwa - well worth a visit; a taste of the real Oman.

Better than expected
Hotel lobby and pool area were lovely and the waiting staff helpful. The rooms were a little old and needing refurbishment, the beds were very hard and the place lacked the atmosphere but to come back to at the end of day of sightseeing it was lovely to have a pool and sunlounger. The hotel and Expedia however need to sort out the charging structure as per other comments I had read on Expedia the hotel wanted to charge us an additional charge as three of our party were considered adults and not children. They eventually waived the fee after a long and protracted discussion and said they were unhappy with Expedia and their room policy was clear. Be warned if you have children I would recommend speaking to the hotel in advance. It was not an insignificant sum they wanted to charge. The hotel said this cost would come from the staff on duty which seemed totally wrong.
