Sofitel Abu Dhabi Corniche

Room, interiors, breakfast buffet, pool, sauna, the view...all superb

The location of the hotel was very good - close to the Corniche Beach and also 10 min drive to Emirates Palace, Qasar al Watan palace and also close to Louvre. I liked the facilities of the hotel- the spa, the pool with amazing sunset views and jacuzzi and very friendly staff - from the pool and restaurant- i would mention Shafi who was great. There was also a hair salon with manichiure etc right next to the spa which for me felt great. And The room was spacious with amazing view over the sea and the breakfast was amazing. Overall, the highlight was definitely the staff who was very friendly and handled professionally any request of any kind or any situation.

The hotel is precious. The room is very spacious and new, and the decoration is elegant. The shower is great, and the location is very convenient: in front of the paths to cross to the sea side. The bar at the hoftop is a nice place to spend some time with a cocktail while hearing life music and enjoying the city view. A big plus for the spacious and comfortable changing rooms in the spa, which is extremely convenient if you will take a flight to a cold country after a full day in Abu Dhabi.

We went to watch SailGP on the Friday and were lucky enough to see the practice on the Thursday because the hotel has a wonderful view over the Mina. It is in a complex of 5 towers, the closest to the shoreline of which is the main hotel. Breakfast was great. The staff on reception super helpful and kind, and our room was super. We also enjoyed the food at the poolbar. Lifts were fast, water was sweet and hot.

Good facilities, particularly the gym which was well equipped and managed, spacious, clean and tidy. Good choice of restaurants also. Our bedroom was large with ample closet space and an impressive bathroom. Overall the accommodation was thoughtfully designed and well laid out. There was an excellent selection of quality food for breakfast and the coffee was especially good. Staff were attentive, professional and helpful.
