A grand approach to a palatial entrance belies the low-rise nature of the Hilton, the Arabian-style buildings shaped around an attractive swimming pool fringed with palm trees. The rooms are a decent size, large enough for a seating area alongside your bed, and decorated with Arabian touches to remind you where you are. Views are either of the mountains behind the city or the beach and ocean in front of it, and you have a variety of restaurants offering casual and formal dining, inspired by local and international cuisines.
