Sundus Investments Projects, a specialist in mixed-use developments, has signed a deal with Oman-based Shaksy Engineering Services to develop the first phase of the Sundus Airport Heights project coming up in the sultanate's capital Muscat.

Phase One of the project will include the construction of Sundus Rotana, a four-star business hotel which is set to open doors in February 2017, said Mohammed Mahfoodh Al Ardhi, the chairman of Sundus Investments Projects after signing the deal with Said Al Shaksy, CEO of Shaksy Engineering Services.

The hotel will feature 215 guest rooms including suites, a ballroom, six meeting rooms, an executive lounge, a boardroom and a fully equipped business centre. Guests will also have access to a state-of-the-art fitness centre and swimming pool, an all-day dining café, and ‘Teatro’ - Rotana’s signature fine dining concept.

“Sundus Investments Projects is committed to leveraging the sultanate's potential through developing high quality properties that add significant value to Muscat’s tourism sector. We are confident that our synergistic partnership with Shaksy Engineering Services will help us achieve the successful launch of the hotel in 2017,” he added.

Sundus Airport Heights has been designed to cater to business travellers and conference visitors. Located centrally on Al Maaridh Street in the Al-Seeb district, the site offers panoramic views of the sea and the magnificent Hajjar Mountains.

The second phase of the project will include the development of Sundus Arjan featuring 85 luxury hotel apartments, including studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. The property will also host all-day dining and fine dining restaurants.

Sundus Rotana and Sundus Arjan will collectively span an area of approximately 40,000 sq m and contribute to driving Oman’s ambitious mandate for the tourism sector as outlined in Oman’s Vision 2020. – TradeArabia News Service
