Hotels in Abu Dhabi

A welcoming hotel that offers an attractive combination of comfort, convenience and reasonable prices, the Al Diar Mina Hotel has 106 rooms, all with kitchenettes. The hotel is basic by Abu Dhabi standards, but it is cosy and pleasant. It has a restaurant as well as bar with live entertainment, and photocopying and fax services are available. Guests can use the business centre and gym at the neighbouring Regency Hotel without charge.

Allegedly one of the most expensive hotels ever built, this palace boasts 302 grand rooms and 92 magnificent suites, each combining the ultimate in luxury with state-of-the-art technology. There are 10 restaurants, a spa, a swimming pool, a private beach, two tennis courts, two fitness centres and several exclusive boutiques. The conference and banqueting facilities are second to none.

A seriously opulent hotel with 275 guest rooms (including 79 luxury suites), Le Royal Méridien offers indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a fitness centre with sauna and steam room, a squash hall, 10 restaurants and bars and excellent facilities for business meetings and banquets.

Located 15 minutes from the city centre facing the impressive Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan Mosque, the Shangri-La hotel is the city's newest addition to its 5-star portfolio. The hotel boasts 214 rooms, as well as 161 serviced apartments, most of which face the strait dividing Abu Dhabi island from the mainland. Adjacent to the hotel is a souk built to resemble a traditional Arabian market.
