The hotel has impeccable service, from reception and waiters to room cleaners. The service surprised and delighted us unspeakably: we didn’t have time to order an iron and ironing board from the room by phone, when after 2 minutes the housekeeper (cleaner) was already on the threshold and even offered to iron the necessary things, but we correctly refused. Upon arrival, fruit slices are provided in the room. The rooms are small in size, but quite comfortable, in dark colors, there are no balconies in the rooms. View from the rooms to the city, marina or the beach. Few Russian-language channels.
Very beautiful hotel, the lobby is decorated with live white orchids. There is a bar in the lobby where you can order alcohol and smoke for everyone over 18 years old. There were no families with children in the hotel.
The hotel also works on the "All Inclusive" system, which is not common in the Emirates. Restaurant for breakfast overlooking the yacht marina, a huge range of dishes, snacks and fruits for breakfast, Among the snacks were blue cheese, red fish. Fruits are peeled and cut into neat pieces for the convenience of guests. Beverage service at the table. Wi-Fi in the hotel is free. The only negative of the hotel is that it is quite calm and boring in the evening, it is not interesting to visit the lobby bar every evening, so it is better to go to the center of Abu Dhabi or Dubai for entertainment.
Very elegant and chic interiors, natural materials everywhere (beautiful stone and wood). Everything is made to the highest standard. Everything shines (nothing is slapped, not scratched, not wiped). Everything from the needle!
The hotel has chic halls for celebrations, including a ballroom (we held the New Year in it).
Great service! There are Russian-speaking staff at the reception and in restaurants. You can leave anything in the rooms, no one will take even a trifle. Tips are not asked. Service unobtrusively.
Excellent restaurants (especially main and Italian). Everything is very, very tasty. All kinds of dishes (meat, fish, seafood, whatever). Cakes with refined taste (without cream, cheese, etc. ). Huge selection of cheeses of various types. Good fruits.
In the hotel restaurants you can order wine and spirits. And in the shops of the city there is not even beer.
And wonderful (at least take a break from the ubiquitous Russian drunken youth, wild cackle, etc. )!
At the level of the hall - Piano Bar. Jazz is played and sung in the evenings. You will listen. And the aroma of coffee...It can be seen that locals often visit hotels just for a cup of coffee, to look through newspapers, to meet. Very pleasant atmosphere!
Heated pool. Clean and comfortable changing rooms (plus showers and toilets in adjacent rooms). Gym + jacuzzi + sauna + steam chamber. Beach + fresh grass soccer field + best fish restaurant in town. A beach with a view of the bulk shaft, but this is everywhere in the Emirates (firstly, so that no rubbish is brought from the sea, and secondly, a construction boom - they are expanding the coastline everywhere and pouring islands, thirdly, the sea is enough for you). The water is clean, the sand is soft.
Beautiful territory. The hotel is located on a hill. From the windows you can see the chic President Hotel, the sea - from two sides. In the direction of the sea - a yacht club (prestigious).
You go to the beach just through the boat station.
The hotel is located a short distance from the city (10 minutes walk). It's great. And the city is visible, and at the same time quiet and calm. Nearby (on an island) - a large shopping center Marina Mall + amusement park with a Ferris wheel.
The embankment (which was expanded towards the sea) is within easy reach. Along the entire embankment there is a magnificent bike path. Great rent, I recommend!
The local people are very responsive and kind. As soon as the map was opened in the shopping center, someone immediately asked: "Are you lost? Can I help you? ". The ATM "ate" the card - a young married couple helped to contact the bank - the owner of the ATM, asked: "When are you leaving? Did you have the last money on the card? " the truth was not the last). This attitude touched me to the core.
Taxis are very affordable with a flat fee per kilometer. Across the city - 2-3 dollars (taxi drivers also take dollars, but they don't give change).
Clean not only in the hotel and its territory, but in general in the city. Car tires are so black (clean) like at a car dealership. There is no dirt or dust.
Irrigation installations, flowers, greenery everywhere. And this is where the desert used to be. (But this is only in the emirate of Abu Dhabi! In Dubai, the emir most of all loves skyscrapers and new wonders of the world, and greenery - there figs. )
The rest was excellent, and the New Year's Eve was a fairy tale!
The territory is large well-groomed: fountains, etc.
The room is large, well furnished: large TV, internet, fresh flowers, safe in the room: bathrobe, slippers, fresh fruit on the day of arrival, every evening, 2 small chocolates in the room, a trifle, but nice. Newspapers, magazines, every morning. Magazines in the room upon arrival.
Room service: breakfast, lunch, dinner - you make an order and everything will be brought at the appointed time. Service is at a high level
Meals: breakfast-juices (4 types), red fish, cold cuts, fruits in assortment (5-6 types), you can order any coffee (expresso, etc. ), everything else is as usual (yogurts, omelettes, sausages, sour cream etc. ) Lunch buffet in a cafe on the 3rd floor: beyond praise: seafood: lobsters, shrimp, etc. (not every day the whole set) fruits, a lot. Dinners are much worse.
There are a lot of sports equipment, 3 saunas, a jacuzzi, an ice water pool and a cold water pool (indoors). An outdoor pool with heated water.
The sea was not warm, 21 Gr. , Clean sand-white
The beach is beyond praise: there is everything you need and even more.
