While advertised as a 5-star hotel, the attention to detail leaves much to be desired. The electrical outlets were outdated, with only two functional ones located far from the bed, making it challenging to use an adapter. The bathrobes came with mismatched straps, and the bathroom’s marble surfaces were poorly maintained, giving the space a perpetually unclean appearance despite regular cleaning. The flush button was broken, and housekeeping skipped my room even though I had placed the “cleaning requested” sign. The hotel’s location is inconveniently far from other areas, and getting a taxi from there was difficult. On the positive side, the staff were very friendly and helpful, but unfortunately, the management fell short in maintaining a high standard. Overall, this stay was not worth it—other nearby hotels may charge more, but they uphold the quality one expects from a 5-star establishment.

We felt that the information displayed in Expedia was misleading and set our expectations completely wrong. The hotel didn’t give us any room upgrade and said they would never do that. They didn’t know what we were talking about when we mentioned the VIP Access qualification of this hotel and have not offered any additional benefit at all. So far, this whole VIP Access and Gold Expedia membership don’t mean or bring anything for us - very disappointed customers.

We enjoyed a 5 night stay in this hotel. It was an excellent stay- the staff were so helpful. The complimentary valet parking was very helpful considering we had a young son. The private beach is lovely and quiet. This was a perfect holiday to Abu Dhabi with our 1 year old. Cannot recommend the hotel and staff enough. Very child friendly with a very convenient location and the best view of emirates palace! We will definitely be back!

5 star not so much
The hotel seemed to be a good hotel, however, it was unacceptable for a 5 star hotel to have previous guest's hair left in the bathtub in the room. I work for The Ritz Carlton in Charlotte, NC which is also a 5 star hotel so I know that is unacceptable. That is very unsanitary. When I mentioned it to the gentleman that came to my room to clean it, the best he could do was wipe it out (not clean the tub).

Very good choice for location, comfort & views.
Good location. Very comfortable and high standard. Beach area was good although the area had a bad storm on our 2nd night and suffered notable damage and disruption. Breakfast on floor 2 was excellent and included in our price. Food and drink a bit pricey for us, for example £18 for two iced coffees and that's with zero exchange fees and paying in AED. Defintely a good choice though and great to stay here after our visit 10 years ago staying at the Palace opposite.. hard to match that I guess 😀.
