Intercontinental Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi

Millennium Hotel - Abu Dhabi

Advantages: Location
Disadvantages: More of a business Hotel than for lesuire

I decided to treat my mum and me to a short break to Abu Dhabi last year and choose the Millennium Hotel to stay in. We managed to find a taxi easily enough at Abu Dhabi airport and after a short drive (30mins) we arrived at the hotel. On first impressions I was a little disappointed. I had all these grand images in my head, but in reality the hotel seemed pretty standard. The room itself was quite basic (considering the price we paid), but it was clean and the beds were very comfortable. The hotel does have a nice swimming pool (although a little on the small side) and area for catching some sun. Getting around Abu Dhabi was fairly easy, taxi's are always available and very cheap. One trip I would recommend is the desert safari and evening barbecue. Driving up and down the sand dunes in the deserts was thrilling, I was ...

Review of Millennium Hotel, Abu Dhabi

Great value half-way between Dubai and Abu Dhabi

Advantages: Peaceful, lovely pool, helpful staff, nice rooms
Disadvantages: Middle of nowhere, food not brilliant.

With only a day to go I didn't expect a great choice of hotels.

I was a bit confused though as several hotel finder sites put it as Dubai, but the address was Abu Dhabi. Looking on the map we found why, it is nearly exactly haflway between the two emirates. As my husband was working quite nearby and we had a hire car, this was not a problem. If you come from Dubai, it is about 40 minutes drive from the airport (but could be longer if you are unfortunte ...

Review of Golden Tulip Al Jazira, Abu Dhabi

Hilton Baynunah, Abu Dhabi, Hilton Adana, Turkey

Advantages: great services
Disadvantages: a few black sheeps that makes the brand look bad

removed. Then it was time to pay, we waited for more than half an hour for our change. It was a considerable amount and we were not going to leave that big a tip! It was after asking the other waiters for our receipt did we finally get our change. We returned some time later... for a company function. It was not impressive. no comments on the rooms Hilton Baynunah, Abu Dhabi, UEA ------------------------------------------------ I was there during easter 2005. what can i say? it's has truly good service. especially after my experience in Adana. There are 3 Hiltons in Abu Dhabi alone, and it's easy to make your way to the wrong one. But fear not, the staff are wonderfully helpful! even in the early hours of 3am. it erased the blimp Hotel Adana made. the room is very clean, so is the bathroom. It was a more like a service ...
