Accommodation & transportation in this city are generally problematic. This hotel deserves its 5 stars, very clean. Very busy. Rooms are big and super comfortable. Nice decoration, everything is modern. But it's at the very end of Corniche beach, not much to do when you reach the seashore, you can only jog and can't stop a taxi or find a bus by the seaside. Instead forget about the seashore and use Hamdan Street and buses to navigate and even to reach the sea (if you don't rent a car). There are bus stations nearby, one of them is for the airport, good that it's close. Hamdan Street is very long and not bad for shoppping or eating. Not loved the pool on the roof. Lobby area can be reorganized, it does not have a friendly vibe. Mall of Abu Dhabi is nearby. All attractions like the Grand Mosque, Mandarin Hotel, Corniche Beach, Qasr al Vatan etc are relatively far. Not by car, again. Abu Dhabi is a square but there is no metro and buses are slow due to the non-stop jam & traffic lights, many many traffic lights. To give you an idea: it may take up to 2 hrs to reach to the Grand Mosque from the hotel by public bus. And yet, did not see a better option in the entire city for a similar value at this price. Did not try the open buffet but was looking good & rich. They have to add one more lift to the building.

The staff were all incredibly friendly, especially the door staff - always helping call taxis and carry bags. The gym and pool were perfect for what I needed and rooms were really spacious and clean

The location is not ideal for walking to attractions or restaurants- you have to get a taxi to where you want to go.

The breakfast was delicious with a good variety of options. The bed was very comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep. The bathroom was clean, modern, and well-equipped. Overall, a fantastic experience!

The hotel itself is great, but the breakfast seating area is too small. During busy mornings, it was difficult to find a seat as there weren’t enough tables and chairs. This made the breakfast experience inconvenient and stressful. I hope the hotel improves this in the future. Also I had trouble sleeping at night due to the nearby mosque's calls to prayer. While I respect the cultural and religious significance, the sound was quite loud and woke me up every night. Light sleepers might want to bring earplugs or request a quieter room.

I had a great experience at this hotel. I really value the cleanliness and the smell in the hotels and I was very satisfied. Food was great; I had lunch at the buffet small and cozy, nice variety and taste like home. Chef came personally very kind and the Staff very kind and helpful from the valet to the maids, reception and waitress at the restaurant Krichelle and Cherif were extremely kind and attentive. I’ll be back very soon. Thanks

I’l like them to have a coffee machine and a minibar

I really liked everything about my stay. The location is great — you can get to the islands quickly, and the airport is just about 25 minutes away. The hotel itself is not very big, so there aren’t too many people, which I personally see as a big plus. Breakfasts were also a highlight — there were not only classic international dishes but also local ones, and the sweets were especially good. Local options are often missing from hotel breakfasts, but I really enjoy trying new things. The room was exactly what I expected — no issues at all. There's also a brand-new, large supermarket nearby called Grand Emirates. It has everything you might need, which is super convenient. One more bonus I’d like to mention: I usually leave early and don’t make it to breakfast, so I ask for a lunch box. This hotel put together the best one I’ve had — it was not only convenient to take with me, but also had the perfect mix of sweets, fruit, and cold cuts.

Staff is very polite and helpful; rooms are clean and spacious, and the bathroom is neat as well. Sleeping was super comfortable, quiet.

Minor things, like no slippers, old scratchy robes, water on the bathroom floor from the shower doesn't evaporate unless whipped. You can't really take a shower in the bathtub as all water will be on the floor as well, whoever designer those need to rethink :) The pool has no space for sunbeds - only couple of chairs - so no use of it to those who want to tan.

The breakfast was delicious and offered a great variety. The staff was extremely kind and helpful, always available whenever something was needed. The view from the room was lovely, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was very clean. They provided everything you might need in the bathroom, from body lotion and shower gel to conditioner, toothbrushes, toothpaste...

The biggest issue was the limited space in the breakfast area. Sometimes you had to wait for a table because it was too crowded. Considering the number of rooms and guests, the space needs to be expanded. Additionally, the carpets in the room were quite dirty and need a deep cleaning, and the wallpaper should be replaced. There was noticeable dust in the room, and the windows weren’t properly cleaned. For a five-star hotel, it doesn’t fully meet the expectations. I’ve stayed in a four-star hotel that offered a better experience overall.

The staff is the best part of the hotel. Cherif and Karla, from the reception, assisted us in every part of the trip, their help have been precious. Location is ok but to reach the center you need a taxi or walk a bit, in any case is very safe. The beds were very comfortable and the room big.

The room was a bit old, but very clean.

1. The service at the reception area, especially the receptionist on the first day Asma was very helpful. She was full of positive vibes, gave excellent recommendations on places to visit and eat. She really is worth a bonus for her attitude toward guests. 2. The valet service was very good, always attentive and on time. 3. Small but very nice and warm swimming pool is a really nice bonus especially if you are traveling not in summer. 4. Breakfast was good and offered a variety of dishes. You can definitely have different dishes every day if you are staying a week. It consists of both local and international options. 5. The location was good, if you are not looking for something close to the beach. There are several supermarkets, cafes, restaurants very close to the hotel.

1. There is a constant noise in the rooms, especially the ones with the sea view. 2. The humidity level in the room was really high and you could smell it. 3. It was cold in the room despite the fact that we turned off the A/C ( we stayed in January). We assume that was because of the cold coming under the windows.

The location was perfect, very close to corniche street and in centre with plenty of shops and local restaurants around The staff were helpful, they didn’t have free seaview room the first day but they changed our room on the second day The rooms were big and beds were comfortable Pool water was really warm and enjoyable along side the jacuzzi

A few things that I didn’t like were that the rooms didn’t have fridge and that was surprising There was no scale in the rooms and they only had 1 luggage scale at the reception that were giving to all the guests so it wasn’t available frequently! The pool is in the shadow and gets little to no sun but the warm water makes up for it and there’s no view in the pool area, the restaurant gets really busy during breakfast time and you have to wait to have free tables to eat
