The number of guests staying at three- to five-star hotels in Oman reached 992,009 by the end of June 2026, marking a 13% decline compared to the same period in 2025, when the number stood at 1,140,086, according to the latest data.
In a swift intervention to support travellers caught in the fallout of regional airspace disruptions, authorities in the UAE have moved to ensure that stranded visitors are not left without accommodation — or with unexpected bills.
UAE's hotel revenues for the 11-month period from January to November 2025 rose to AED44.4 billion ($12 billion), up 8.8% over the previous year, said a report. This was mainly driven by a spurt in the number of hotel guests which soared to 29.1 million, while guest nights exceeded 99.4 million.
