The Abu Dhabi EDITION I had a truly wonderful stay at The Abu Dhabi EDITION. From the moment I arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. The hotel itself is beautifully designed — modern, elegant, and full of character, with a relaxing atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The rooms are spacious, stylish, and very comfortable, offering great views and top-quality amenities. I especially appreciated the little touches that made the stay feel luxurious, like the personalized service and high-end toiletries. The dining options are excellent as well, with a variety of restaurants serving delicious food — particularly the breakfast, which was fresh and full of great choices. The location is also ideal, close to key attractions but peaceful enough for a quiet, relaxing stay. Whether for business or leisure, I highly recommend The Abu Dhabi EDITION for anyone looking for a memorable and upscale experience in the city.

Came back to EP after 3 years after Covid and I enjoyed my staying a lot. Staffs were helpful and friendly in general, but they were not those sweet sweet kind… just friendly, maybe some people would find them rude… Anyway, the package was super good and good value for the price. Many activities were included. Basically you could spend all day in the hotel without going out… I enjoyed their fine dinning restaurants: 1.Hakkasan-modern Asian fusion, if you like typical Chinese food, not the right one… 2.Broadway-western, American style… loved their cauliflower salad… steak was okay, maybe I ordered wrong one, should have tried the wellington… but staffs were super friendly… 3.Lebanese Terrace-somebody told me it was the best Lebanese restaurant in town, so I went have a try. It was so good… but the staffs were not friendly… 4. Vendome-the best breakfast buffet in town for me… (tried Park rotana, St Regis, Conrad, four seasons, rosewood, W hotel, Hilton… )still think it is the best one For someone who stays in the hotel like 300/365 days, this is the best hotel in abu danbi. I found it difficult for me to stay in any other hotels in Abu danbi 🥹

Jumeirah's beaches are the most beautiful in Abu Dhabi! The water is crystal clear, shimmering in the sunlight. It's a true jelly-like sea, a glassy sea 💙. The water is truly aquamarine 💎. The Jumeirah Hotel's pool design seems to mimic the color of the ocean, from shallow to deep, with a gradient color on the bottom. The hotel design is impeccable, with a predominantly white color scheme that's modern and upscale. The balcony in the sea view room is a bit small, with limited sea views, but the bathtub is quite large. The complimentary Jumeirah fabric bag provided in the room is often seen carried by the hotel. It's very practical and waterproof, perfect for carrying things to the beach. The gym is a bit far from the hotel building, requiring a walk. It was hot, sunny, and humid this time, and I really didn't want to go outside. However, the gym is large, with a ladies-only gym. It has a full range of equipment, including a stair climbing machine. The hotel's breakfast buffet is excellent, offering not only Western options but also Chinese options like spring rolls, steamed buns, dumplings, porridge, fried rice, and ice cream. I highly recommend the traditional Arabic dessert, halwa, which is small and tastes a bit like halva sesame candy. It's delicious here, moist and sweet, and pairs perfectly with coffee.

The reason I chose this hotel at the time was that it was new and opened in 2018. Compared to the St Regis and Park Hyatt on the left and right, which were both opened in 2011. Rotana is a local high-end hotel brand in the United Arab Emirates. There is indeed a certain gap between the service level and the international brands. For example, the facial expressions when facing guests, the overall breakfast arrangement, and the meal collection process need to be improved. Moreover, the check-in service this time was really bad. I booked a room with a sea view and a lounge, but the hotel received information about a room with a garden view without a lounge. It took two hours to find Ctrip on site to resolve the issue. , in the end I don’t know whether it was the hotel or Ctrip’s problem.

During the Christmas season, I spent several delightful days at the Park Hyatt Abu Dhabi, the very same Park Hyatt where Liu Yifei once stayed, and it turned out to be my favorite place where I lingered the longest during this trip. Coincidentally, the room number was the same as my birthday (a rare occurrence for someone born in January). *Highlights: The hotel boasts its own private beach, free from the hustle and bustle of tourists, offering a tranquil and comfortable atmosphere with a great vibe. *Relaxation: There are multiple swimming pools, restaurants, and a library, all exquisitely beautiful, and you can enjoy the sight of eagles during breakfast. *Activities: Morning yoga classes are available, along with tennis courts, a golf course, a gym, and a spa. *Service: The welcome gifts included a large box of chocolates and a fruit platter—the chocolates were absolutely delicious. The staff were all very warm and provided attentive service. *Amenities: The toiletries were from Le Labo, a brand that I adore. *Location: The Louvre is nearby, making it convenient to visit. *The rate during the Christmas season was approximately $1100 per night. *Drawback: It was so comfortable that I ended up staying in the hotel for several days without venturing out, missing many of Abu Dhabi's attractions.

The service is very thoughtful and every staff is enthusiastic. The hygiene is very good and the sea view room is very beautiful. The hotel is very large and it doesn't feel crowded. Breakfast is open until 1pm, which is very considerate. The Japanese restaurant next to the beach, the chef Nelson and the waiter Ros are very good. The beach of the hotel is very beautiful.

Special praise to the service staff at the door. We had a dispute over the taxi driver's detour fee. The service staff at the door came over to help me solve the problem after seeing it. After we explained the situation, the person in charge of the service staff came over and asked us to go back to the hotel first. They will take care of the extra expenses. The service staff and the person in charge did a great job, which not only solved the customer's problem, but also maintained the credibility of their own government taxis.

We had amazing time at Villa. Pool and the excellent view to the ocean is the highlight of the Villa.
