Top Abu Dhabi Hotel Reviews

Rosewood Abu Dhabi

10/10 Excellent

"Outstanding stay — highly recommended! We had an excellent experience at this hotel. Everything was very well organized and maintained to a high standard. What stood out most was the special attention given to babies and infant needs — they made sure we had all the baby supplies and amenities we required, which made our stay so much more comfortable with a little one. The staff were exceptional: friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. The cleanliness and tidiness throughout the hotel were impeccable, and the breakfast was delicious with great variety. Overall, a wonderful and comfortable stay. We would happily return and highly recommend this hotel to families and travelers alike!"

Radisson Blu Hotel & Resort, Abu Dhabi Corniche

Breakfast was a free for all, only one coffee machine,they don't split families and couples, buffet dinner was a better affair. Good location and friendly staff."

Le Méridien Abu Dhabi Resort

"Bar staff was amazing… they even made me special gluten free food not on the menu… they are all super friendly. And the pool and beach are beautiful and a huge plus!"

Al Diar Mina

8/10 Good

"This hotel stay was just what we needed because we had a layover and we needed a place to rest for half a day. It’s a solid decent hotel for this type of requirement. The rooms should have a deep cleaning because we noticed some dirt behind cabinets when we were looking for one of our children’s toys."
