The hotel opening is part of the company’s efforts to extend Oman’s tourism infrastructure to emerging governorates such as Al Wusta.

The Research Council international relations assistant secretary general Sayyid Taimur bin As’ad al Said said, "The creation of tourism properties such as the strategically placed Crowne Plaza Duqm will complement the expansion of Oman’s economic diversification centrepiece, enhance the Wilayat’s tourism potential and ensure the availability of sufficient accommodation for discerning business and recreational travellers."
Presently, Omran is developing a number of major projects including the Oman Convention and Exhibition Centre‚ Alila Jabal Akhdar Resort, W Hotel, Quriyat-Sur Rest Area and the Fort Hotel.
