2-Star Hotels in Emirate of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

The hotel WAS a beautiful hotel, perhaps 20 years ago. No renovation seems to have taken place, hence everything is as it was. It is clean. The ”kitchen” in the Junior Suite is not existent: just the fridge. Not even a spoon. Emptiness. The lack of reserved parking must be seriously taken into account: if you have a car expect spending between 1/2h and 1h to find a parking place in the area, after dinner.

Here's a shorter version of your review: we had an amazing time staying at the yacht hotel! it was our first time, and the experience was truly special. The views were stunning, and the staff was incredibly attentive. A perfect blend of luxury and adventure. Highly recommend for a unique stay!

Come to the meeting to book, in the cylindrical house at the entrance of the sports club, the front desk will speak simple Chinese, the room can be solved with a small problem, not bad.

We booked this hotel knowing we wouldn't spend a lot of time in it and it would be a place to sleep. We found the things we wanted to see in Abu Dhabi were pretty spread out but this was central enough to it all. The hotel is located about 30 minutes from Zayed International Airport and Yas Island and about 15 minutes away from the Saadiyat Cultural District with all its museums and the Galleria area. There are some dining options and smaller stores nearby but it is a short drive away from some better options. We booked a room with a king bed and had a good stay in it. The room was small but considering the price we felt it was well appointed with a mini fridge, coffee/tea station, small TV and a closet. The pillows were pretty comfy and we felt we had a good night's rest when we stayed. We booked a non smoking room and so did our cousin but it seems that despite what our booking website showed the smoking is allowed in many of the rooms. They did spray our room with a deodorizer before we got in and we felt it helped. There are enough plugs throughout the rooms and there was enough lighting even though it only came from the table side lamps. The area is very active and late into the night and my wife found it a bit noisy, had issues sleeping and needed to use ear plugs but I found it was quiet enough and had no issues falling asleep each night. We didn't need AC during our stay in February because our room was the right temperature for us but there was a thermostat on the wall. The bathroom had lots of room and a good sized bath tub. The shower felt great and offered good pressure and plenty of steam. They had shower gel, shampoo and body lotion that are restocked each day. The ventilation could have been a bit stronger because the condensation from our steamy showers left the floor damp. Thankfully there is daily housekeeping to help with this issue. There aren't any amenities at this hotel other than a small business centre. There are some restaurants nearby to grab a quick bite but we had to drive a bit to go to places we wanted to try. The parking nearby is all paid but is free between 11:00pm-8:00am and we were lucky our first night getting a spot right in front of the hotel with Unais' help but the second night we had to park about a block away. Parking costs 2 AED per hour but there are special rates for longer stays like 24 hours. We felt this hotel was convenient for our stay in Abu Dhabi because we didn't want to spend a lot on a place we wouldn't spend much time in. This met our needs perfectly.

Location is great- accessible to public transpo. We had breakfast served in our room. The hotel had only one access to all floors of the building which makes it inconvenient as the building is has other business establishment. It becomes disturbing in the evening as you can hear and feel the vibration of loud sounds until 4am at most.
