We stayed here before the refurbishment (pre COVID) and we were keen to see how the hotel might have changed. What was the same was the excellent friendly service and staff for whom nothing was too much trouble. Likewise the room was clean and well equipped. The pool area has changed a lot and we missed the old water cannon and the thermal aqua therapy spa, but the pool staff were extremely good, in particular Sandeep who helped us settle into our loungers ever morning. It's still a lovely place to stay in Abu Dhabi and offers exceptional value for the price.

This was my first time staying here, am a frequent solo traveler. The place has a lot of heritage attached to it being one of the first chain hotels that opened in Abu Dhabi. Queen Elizabeth stayed here as well as a big list of historical famous figures. You can consider it kind of a boutique hotel. Check in was quick and smooth. I did request another room though as the room I was given had a view of an AC chiller on the roof and nothing else. Since am staying for 6 nights I couldn’t accept that and they changed my room but I had to wait for around 30 minutes New room has an amazing view of the pool and was very nice. The hotel building is generally old, so when it rained, the rain was leaking through the window and made the room carpet wet. I informed the front desk about it to see if they can do something to help dry it but unfortunately they didn’t do anything about it and by the day I was checking out the carpet was already smelly. The AC as well got very uncomfortable with high levels of humidity in the room after the rain , again asked the front desk to check it as I was leaving for the day. Not sure if they actually did something about it or not but it didn’t get any better. Beds are comfortable but some of the bedsheets are aged and you can see parts where they worn out a bit. Pool and beach facilities are amazing and the staff were the best part of the experience

One of the oldest hotels in Abu Dhabi. Our lovely Queen of kindly was there at its opening. Hotel staff is friendly but you would come across some weird staff members who said oh! You can’t take your drinks which you bought in the hotel to the hotel’s beach. They would force you to buy the same drink! I was like I paid for for my ginger ale in the hotel, and I can’t sit in the sun with this drink ? It wasn’t even alcohol. They don’t appreciate that it’s a 5 star hotel and you can’t talk to people like this! Bathrooms needs an upgrade, if you shower, there’s guarantee to have water out of the tub. No shower curtains and the glass partition is too small!
