Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms. The staff is very courteous and helpful, and the location is really good. However, the dining experience was below expectations. Overall, it's a nice place to stay with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel is truly exceptional, offering spacious and immaculately cleaned rooms with delightful and helpful cleaning staff. The service provided, starting from the attentive receptionist and extending to breakfast, was well above average with a substitute driver even arranged promptly. The location is perfect, close to the renowned Emirates Palace and the vibrant Corniche promenade. The dining experience, although with good food options, was let down by high prices and mediocre breakfast. Overall, a wonderful place to stay.
The hotel rooms were pretty standard but very clean and comfortable, providing a relaxing time after an overnight air flight. They are dated but well-maintained, with the exception of a lack of microwaves and decent windows, similar to most American hotels. The service was exceptional with very polite and quick responses to requests, including a delightful surprise of a free upgrade. The location is ideal, offering a quiet and clean environment with multiple pools and easy access to the beach via a tunnel. The dining experience was flavorful but slightly repetitive, albeit offering good value for the price. Overall, the facilities were great, providing various amenities and services for a pleasant stay.
The hotel is in a prime location with a nice beach bar and close to exciting attractions. The rooms, although a bit dated, are clean and have comfortable beds. The service is top-notch with friendly and helpful staff. Dining options are excellent, and the facilities are well-kept for a pleasant stay.
The hotel has a prime location on Corniche Rd W, with a lively ambiance and proximity to various restaurants and attractions. While the rooms may seem a bit dated compared to other Radisson properties, my stay was comfortable with all the needed amenities. The service, especially at La Terraza, was exceptional and made my stay memorable. However, the dining options were somewhat limited during my visit.
I was thrilled with my stay at the hotel. The room was not ready when I arrived, but it was super comfortable and well-maintained, especially after being upgraded to a suite for our family with a kid. The service was attentive and friendly, with a specific shoutout to the check-in staff for their warmth. The location was prime, close to landmarks and essentials. The dining was top-notch, thanks to a varied and tasty spread. A few minor hiccups were noted, but overall a wonderful stay.
I was looking forward to a great sea view from my room, but it turned out smaller than expected. The rooms could use some updating and a bit more care. Unfortunately, my check-in experience was not smooth, with missing items and cleanliness issues. The staff seemed to struggle with basic reservation knowledge and the valet parking was a chaotic mess.
The hotel rooms were outdated and small, needing a facelift and some TLC, but they were very clean, and the staff was pleasant. The service was exceptional with a few minor misses in luggage assistance. The location was decent with good connections in Abu Dhabi but a bit far from attractions on foot. The dining experience offered a superb selection of foods. Overall, the hotel needs some updating but provides a great choice of meals and excellent service.
Upon staying at the hotel, I found the location to be fantastic, clean, and not overly crowded, with good connections to various spots in Abu Dhabi. The rooms were a bit outdated and small, giving a nostalgic vibe, while also feeling a little claustrophobic. The service was generally attentive and friendly, although there were some lapses in polite communication at reception areas. The dining experience didn't meet my expectations, as the choices were limited compared to similar hotels. Overall, the hotel offered a nice ambiance for a stay, with some areas needing improvement.
I absolutely loved the hotel's stunning ocean view from the room, but it was a bit disappointing that the actual room was smaller than expected for a 5-star hotel and didn't offer the city view as advertised in my booking. Luckily, the suite I was moved to was much more suitable and comfortable, almost like most American hotel rooms minus the microwave and a proper window.
The hotel offers cool, bright rooms with comfy beds to relax and enjoy. Although the rooms were a little cold with no heater, the fantastic value, including access to the executive lounge with complimentary food and drinks, made up for it. However, the space was a bit tight for a 5-star hotel.
Staying in a suite next to another room that was a bit dated and smoky made it less peaceful for breakfast, but the beds were comfy. The service at La Terraza was exceptional with efficient check-in, thanks to Rozene, who went above and beyond. The location was perfect for the beach area, although a bit dated, and the dining experience, while satisfactory, had room for improvement with queuing for some items. The hotel facilities need a bit of upgrading but still offer a decent stay.
The hotel is in a decent location near the sea, but the rooms are tired and need refurbishment. The lack of breakfast included is disappointing given the rates charged.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, while a bit small and in need of renovation, were clean and cozy. The service was very pleasing, with friendly and polite staff who even promptly switched my room when requested. The location, although open limited hours, was fantastic with beautiful views of Abu Dhabi and near the palace corniche. The dining experience was excellent, offering a wide variety of delicious foods. However, the facilities seemed a bit outdated.
The hotel provides clean and decent-sized rooms, but some furniture may appear worn out. While the service is polite and enthusiastic, there were some lapses in checking amenities. The location is perfect for exploring nearby attractions, although some room views might be obstructed. The dining options are varied and delicious. Facilities are adequate, but some areas may need refurbishment.
