Grand Hyatt Abu Dhabi Hotel and Residence Emirates Pearl

Fantastic stay! Before checking in, I was a bit worried the hotel might be old, but my concerns completely vanished once I arrived. The views were stunning, and the breakfast was quite generous. There was even staff on the balcony with birds, ready for photos at any time!

The hotel's location is excellent, making it convenient to drive to any attraction. The view from the room is absolutely beautiful, and the breakfast is plentiful and delicious. The hygiene is great, the service is excellent, and the facilities are comprehensive.

Hotel environment and facilities: The room faced the palace directly, offering an amazing view. Next to it was the Etihad Towers, where 'Fast & Furious 7' was filmed near this hotel. The gym had plenty of equipment and was rarely crowded. The room was tidy and clean, the service was excellent, and the internet speed was super fast. Transportation: There's a shuttle bus to Yas Island's theme parks, running twice a day. The palace and presidential palace are within walking distance. Taxis to the Grand Mosque and the Louvre Abu Dhabi take about 20 minutes and cost around 40 AED. Dining: The breakfast buffet had a wide variety of options and tasted good. The club lounge was just okay; the selection was a bit limited. Although it's accessible from 11 AM to 11 PM, I went in once in the afternoon and could only get drinks and biscuits.

Booked the Palace View room, and the front desk thoughtfully arranged for our two rooms to be together, which my family absolutely loved. The room was spacious, and they even provided extra meals for the children and a free crib.
