They require all hotels booked through them. And they are expensive.

My experience inviting a national from a couontry not on the visa free list was a bit mixed.

Several PC hotels (HI,HIX) didnt provide visa support at all, while CP only did if you in addition had a company to sponsor (sic). They charged 500 Dirham.

Hyatt was better at 450 Dirham, and they didnt need an additional sponsor. But required you to stay all nights there. The visa was issued online, and was sent as a printable PDF-file. This had 2 months expiry from date of issue (normally a week before arrival). Hyatt also authorized 5000 Dirham on my CC.

I guess they could have done whatever they wanted after the Hyatt stay, and probably also checked out earlier.

Im not sure whether the 2 months were standard, we provided flight details for 6 days.

Would probably have been enough with one night at Hyatt.

Emirates can also do it.
