This is my second time staying here for two weeks and it’s always a lovely experience. I arrived at 8am on the day of my check in and they immediately had a room ready for me, which was greatly appreciated at 15 hours of travel. They’ve made some upgrades since 2023 and the room is even more comfortable, especially the bed. I spent so much time by the pool restaurant and really enjoyed my time. The included breakfast is delicious and full of variety. I cannot wait to return.

Great experience at the Corniche, Abu Dhabi

Hotel presents itself in a good shape and has stunning views of the bay especially from the upper levels. Convenient commute to the aiport is located just around the corner, A2 bus station.

Some good …Some bad.

The position is good, but unfortunately the big pool gets no sun all day. Guests can thankfully use a sunny pool at the Residences, which seems to infuriate residents so we witnessed a few irate conversations. The lounge is wonderful and we were so well looked after by Andrew and Richard at afternoon tea and cocktails. The All Day dining was excellent too. Breakfast was fabulous and the staff was helpful and efficient. Best danish ever!!We had the buffet every night and it also was good. I noticed dishes were constantly being refilled even late on. There was a wide variety of dishes, all very well presented We had a Prestige suite. It’s somewhat dark and badly designed. It’s impossible to find things in the wardrobe without a torch. The bathrooms are dark with insufficient lighting. Also the toiletries were positioned at the foot of the bath…so when bathing it took acrobatics to reach them. The two toilet floors were very spotted and stained….rather offputting. The turndown service is a joke… only not funny. If you advertise a service….supply it. We never knew what would greet us…curtains not pulled…no turndown mats or just 1 for 2 people…a pile of damp towels placed on bath but not replaced. We pointed this and other shortcomings to manager Sabine. Nothing improved…discarded tissues under bathroom counter were not cleared in the 6 days despite being pointed out twice. Sabine never got back to us. Suffice it to say we would not return thanks to her indifference.
