Park Inn Muscat has been awarded the Safehotels Premium Certificate by Safehotels Alliance AB in Oman.
“This is another milestone for Park Inn Muscat adding this achievement to our existing Green Key and HACCP certifications. I’m proud of my team for working hard to attain the accomplishment. The safety and security of our guests and employees is top priority,” Rabih Zein, cluster general manager for Park Inn Muscat and Park Inn Duqm commented.
Safehotels evaluated the hotel’s existing self-assessment internal hotel security programme by monitoring, reviewing and reporting on them. The hotel went through a number of points on a checklist including analysis of security equipment, staff awareness and training, fire security and first aid.
In December 2014, Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group signed an agreement with Safehotels, a globally recognised security consultancy. The agreement made Carlson Rezidor the first major international hotel group using the acclaimed independent certification programme to benefit guests, employees and owners.

To ensure all criteria are met, Carlson Rezidor worked closely with Safehotels to align the brand expectations and self-assessment programme with the Safehotels standard.
“By reaching the level required for certification, it shows the hotel’s focus on key elements of guest security relating to personal property and has the right response if ever there’s an accident or any kind of emergency. The process illustrates the hotel’s sincerity and its guest’s well-being by undergoing a yearly audit and certification by a third party body. The group has taken this one step further by signing with Safehotels for a global certification of all its hotels”, Hans Kanold, CEO of Safehotels Alliance AB.
