"The service attitude is average, especially in terms of response efficiency. When checking in, we were given a terrace room on the first floor, which had no sea view at all and was right next to the main restaurant, with very poor privacy. After a phone call, the front desk agreed to change us to a high-rise sea view room (both of which are called ocean terrace rooms). We waited in the room for almost an hour before someone came to move our luggage. After changing to a new room, there was no welcome fruit and chocolate (we didn't move the original room at all). I called three times to communicate about this matter. Each time the phone rang for more than half a minute, and everyone asked the same question, saying that they had to check whether the fruit and chocolate in our previous room had been eaten. After swimming in the evening, I returned to the room and found that it had not been delivered yet, so I called again and waited for 20 minutes before someone delivered the fruit. In the past, when I called in the hotel, I basically responded immediately and the service attitude was very good, but this hotel was completely the opposite, which made people feel very bad.
In terms of hygiene, there were black spots on the bathrobe and stains on the carpet.
For the price of 5,000 per night, I really don't know what else to praise except the beautiful sea view and beach... btw the Italian restaurant is very delicious, dinner is 210aed per person, and for two people, you can eat very well by paying a little difference."
"InterContinental Abu Dhabi is the first five-star hotel in Abu Dhabi, so the facilities are a bit old. The style reminds me of a 100-year-old hotel in New York. The chairs are all made of steel, but fortunately, the overall service quality in the UAE is very high and it feels thoughtful.
But the service of the entire hotel is still very good. The toiletries used are all Byredo, which is very good.
The overall scale of the hotel is very large, with 6 restaurants open to the public at the same time. Their fishermarket restaurant has very fresh and delicious ingredients. There is also a huge square Belgium Cafe. I heard that during the European Cup, many locals and foreigners will come here to drink beer, watch the game and enjoy the sea breeze. Their beach is connected to the bay with decks and yachts.
The hotel also has many jewelry stores and rest benches with Arabic characteristics. There are many layers of indoor and outdoor areas to explore.
The hotel breakfast is quite satisfactory. I can't find the freshness after eating it for 5 consecutive days."
"I enjoyed my stay big time. Experience was excellent starting arriving time to hotel, check in service, team welcoming , lunch , special room arrangement , pools, private beach, gym, room service, etc
Big thanks to Me. Samir from the front desk management"
Very Good

Even the dinner was great . Thank you so much .and a big thanks to miss imane the helpful receptionist and Mr chandara 😍"
"When I booked this hotel, I was skeptical about it after reading the reviews. And there were few photos of the room itself and the price seemed low compared to other hotels in Abu Dhabi, despite the fact that due to the Coldplay concert, housing prices rose very much.
But after staying there, I want to say that I am ready to become a regular customer of this hotel. We really liked everything!!! The most spacious room, excellent service, delicious breakfasts, heated pool, private beach, the location of the hotel, although it is far away, but in such a beautiful place! And the view of the sunrise from the window of our room left none of us indifferent.
Thank you for your hospitality, we will definitely come back to you. It was not for nothing that I forgot my glasses at your place 😅"
"Lobby staff helpful its nice overall the tissue box was almost empty used few only and get call before 11:30am for check out and get at 12 exactly someone knocking door asking for check out was that extremely weird experience."
"Everything was perfect, except the food. We had taken the half board package. For dinner there were not many options of vegetarian food. Few options that were there were not cooked properly. The food quality was very average."
"W Hotel is one of the nicest hotels in Abu Dhabi and the architecture of it is stunning, the food options and drinks are great as well, the rooms are big as well.
The only downside of the stay was that the hotel is next to a race track and the noise is too much 😅"
"Booked a superior room with city view and had a free upgrade to luxury room with sea view which made our stay more special. Staff were very nice especially Ms. Allen in the reception. The room was so clean. Many options for breakfast. Location within the city center. We had a great stay."
"Very amazing! After checking in at the front desk, I was taken to the room. I was dazzled by the luxurious decoration of the hotel all the way👀
The room is not particularly new, but very clean and tidy. In the evening, you can take your child to experience the water world and ride a camel for free. The experience is great😍
The buffet breakfast is also top-notch, with a wide variety of good services. The child doesn't want to leave after staying here🤭"

Outstanding
LLim🌈 Fantastic luxury 5 ⭐️ hotel with lavish space & spectacular view of the Abu Dhabi 🇦🇪 Qasr Al Watan (The Presidential Palace) & The Palace Hotel. The staff members are highly professional, superb friendly, warm & accommodating ; exceeding our kind expectations 🥂🍾
Notably, Ms Dana (Guest Relations) + Mr Nekhil Maroli (Chief Concierge) whom have gone beyond the extra mile to orchestrate “mission impossible” 1 day Best of Abu Dhabi highlights tour itinerary for our pampering indulgence. They wowed 🤗 us with their warm passion, unparalleled vast knowledge & exceptional service like none other, making us felt “home away from home” 🏡. Best ever hotel experience in UAE 🇦🇪. Excellent job well done! Highly recommended 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
JJuliaThis hotel is simply perfect. From the beautiful location (I didn’t know they had such a lovely beach in Abu Dhabi!), to the beautiful spacious rooms and the impeccable friendly service! We also had late dinner at Buddha Bar which was incredible. I cannot recommend staying here more highly. I can’t wait to come back with my children for a longer stay as they also have an awesome kids club that my kids will love!
GGuest UserThe location is perfect. There are lots of restaurants,cafes,shops etc around. It takes approximately 30 minutes to reach the beach,not 500 m as it’s mentioned on the website.
The room was clean and spacious. The smell wasn’t good though because of the humidity. Not possible to open the windows.
Breakfast is very nice and people in the restaurant are friends and helpful what I can’t say about the receptionists. Very cold and unwelcoming. Every time we passed them,they didn’t smile,neither greet us.

HHafil kasimI had an amazing experience at Copthorne Downtown Abu Dhabi. From the moment I arrived, the calm and quiet atmosphere made me feel completely relaxed — exactly what I needed. The staff were extremely pleasant and welcoming, always ready to help with a smile, which added a personal touch to my stay.
The valet parking was very convenient and efficient, making check-in and check-out smooth and stress-free. One of the highlights of my stay was the outstanding breakfast — a great variety, fresh ingredients, and perfect start to each day.
Honestly, everything about the stay was perfect. From now on, I’ve decided that whenever I visit Abu Dhabi, this will be the only hotel I’ll choose. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort, service, and peace in the heart of the city.

PpolllyyyFabulous! This is a great room. very spacious and clean, with beautiful views from the window and a very large comfortable bed. I booked a room a few hours before check-in, even though I was very warmly welcomed and quickly checked in. the service is excellent. I definitely recommend it

GGuest UserWe are so glad and happy to stay in this 5 star hotel. All thanks as well to Filipino hotel reservations who upgraded our hotel stay from standard to junior suite. The room is nice and big , clean and comfortable stay .
RRustamI think it’s simple when you stay in the 5-star hotel you can feel it. But this doesn’t work with Radisson Blue hotel and Resort. It’s only the name. Quickly:
Rooms interior are modest. Wave pool is perfect for kids and adults. The buffet restaurant La Terrazza serves the seafood, meat and the local cuisine. There are also beach-front restaurant and a couple of bar lounges. Hotel offers in-room menu with breakfast for around 150-200 AED, 2 options of soup, quick bites 40-60AED, burger
70-80AED, pasta 80AED, 4 types of pizza 85AED, main course 100-140AED, beverages/drinks and kids menu.
In a nutshell, the hotel is good with its perfect location at the corniche, unique view on the Gulf, Rixos marina and all that.
We would’ve not shared our negative feedback but a couple of incidents had happened during our stay from April, 27 until May, 1.
There was no rain or wind, but the beach had been closed all the time. I mean all the people come to hanging out on the beach. Ok, I accept that as the reason for this apparently was due to some sanitary issues after torrential rain and flooding in April in the UAE.
The most disgusting thing is the room attendants. These guys have been knocking on our room door for 2 days in a row. Imagine, at 9am in the morning continuously and persistently knocking on the door to make up the bed. And then at the same day at 4 PM with desperate desire to clean the room. Next day the same story in the morning, knocked on the door and, now, attention, please, they just opened the door and got into the room. Yes, sir! Are you kidding me??!!! Of course, we reached out to receptionists and this super courteous staff offered us to send an email to investigate this case. Appreciate it.
Hope this would be very useful and helpful for all who are looking for a place to stay in Abu Dhabi.
YYanggutatalaisaThe overall environment of the hotel is very good. Although there is no swimming pool, the room is very comfortable and the layout is simple and modern. I especially like the mattress of the hotel, which is very comfortable to sleep. Although there is no swimming pool, the hotel provides a free gym where you can relax. The restaurant of the hotel is also great. The breakfast is fresh and delicious, and there are many choices. The staff of the hotel are very friendly and always willing to help. The location of the hotel is very good, and there are many restaurants and shops around, which is suitable for tourists. Overall, this hotel is very good in terms of value for money and is a good choice.

GGuest UserThe stay was little up and down. We stayed here for about a month. At first we were shocked by the hygiene deficiency then with some further work from hotel personnel and personal effort we make it work. On the first floors there are cafe and disco places that are little annoying partying till after midnight. Rooms keys often stop working. Location is very good near corniche road and parks. Overall it was relatively acceptable stay regarding its rating as 1 star hotel and night stay price. The team is lovely and assistive.
