5-Star Hotels in Abu Dhabi

Park Hyatt Saadiyat Island is the perfect vacation spot. It boasts pristine white sand beaches and a crystal-clear turquoise sea. There's also a children's pool, great for kids to play in. Steak lovers can head to the Argentinian steakhouse, while seafood enthusiasts can enjoy the Italian restaurant. At breakfast, you might even be greeted by an Arabian falcon. After dinner, take a stroll through the bushes near the hotel, and if you're lucky, you might even snap a picture with an Arabian gazelle. Selfies, group photos, you name it!

Really spacious room, lots of closet space, and huge bathroom. Amenities wise, it was really upsetting that the adult-only pool was too full so we got rejected and had to use the family pool. And next to the family pool, there was a really loud construction happening so it wasn't a relaxing time by the pool.

This hotel is popular with Chinese tour groups, so the breakfast menu conveniently includes Chinese options. The room decor is simple and stylish. Its location is fantastic, right between the Presidential Palace, the Louvre, and the Grand Mosque, making it easy to get around by taxi. Plus, there's a free YAS EXPRESS bus right outside the hotel that goes to all four Yas Island theme parks.

The hotel's biggest advantage is its location right on the Yas Marina Circuit. However, our room was on the second floor, and the large balcony obstructed the view of the track. If you want a good view of the circuit from your room, it's best to request a room on the third floor or higher. Check-in was very quick. During the Chinese New Year, there were many Chinese guests, and we even received special chocolate gifts. There are also many Indian guests at the hotel, and the breakfast offers a dedicated Indian section. Of course, there's Chinese food too, though not a huge variety. They had spring rolls, stir-fried rice noodles with Laoganma chili crisp and pickled mustard, and steamed fish which was decent. The pan-fried dumplings were the most popular; a fresh plate would be half-gone by the time I looked away. You can order eggs made to your liking; I had Eggs Benedict two days in a row. Breakfast gets very crowded, but you get a great view of a large section of the racetrack, which is fantastic. The shuttle service to the theme parks is very convenient and available at all times. However, to get to the actual racetrack, you'll need a taxi, which was reasonably priced at 12 dirhams.

The room cleaning frequency isn't quite up to Dubai hotel standards. At mealtime, my friend joined us. Our room included two meals, while my friend's room only included breakfast. We wanted the free meals to be served as free, and the paid meals to be paid for normally. However, the Asian hostess who seated us showed an impatient expression before we even spoke, and immediately assumed we had exceeded the guest limit. That felt a bit offensive. However, the hotel's pool, food, and kids' club (the staff even joined in the exercises!) were all pretty good. The toilet in our room had a completely enclosed wooden door, which made the kids scared to use it alone, so an adult had to go with them every time. We didn't take their shuttle bus to the theme park because it showed a 30-minute wait and another 30 minutes to get there. We just took a taxi instead, which wasn't too far, about 15 minutes by taxi. The taxi fare was a bit expensive, but the kids couldn't wait any longer. The chocolate at this hotel is amazing!

My sister and I had an amazing weekend at this hotel. The team made our stay feel so personal with all the thoughtful touches (see the photos), which made us feel truly welcome from the moment we arrived. The hotel is spotless, the food is delicious, and the pool is absolutely wonderful. We also loved that bicycles were available for guests, and we really enjoyed using them. Overall, everything exceeded our expectations. The only small downside was that the mattress was a bit too firm for our liking. Other than that, we had a truly wonderful stay and would happily recommend this hotel. Thank you for the great hospitality!

Firstly, the YAS bus was unreliable and did not follow the schedule as indicated. The hotel staff led us to wait for the YAS bus at a bus stop which was no longer in operation and after waiting for 30 mins we gave up and took a Careem instead. Stepping into the hotel, it felt like an extremely overpriced airport hotel. The amenities provided were just a vanity kit and a shower cap. No other amenities. Compared to other hotels I've stayed in Dubai which provided mouthwash, loofah, shaving kit etc. The room itself was small, no rain shower in the toilet and the bulb in the toilet light kept flashing. The hotel breakfast selection was limited, the only saving grace was the eggs benedict. Hotel gym is also small, we went during dinner where there was nobody and had a great workout there but can't imagine if there's more than 5 people in the gym due to the size of the gym. Steam room wasn't working by 7pm. Hotel came with 2 parks access for 2 days but still did not justify the price and the amenities in the room. The only thing I had no complains about was the service from the staff which was impeccable. The WhatsApp service from the concierge was also great as they responded almost immediately to help me with my things. For this price point I expected alot more which this hotel did not provide. I've stayed in motels with better amenities and really does not justify the $700 SGD per night price point.

The rooms were clean and tidy, the bedding was comfortable, and the hygiene was excellent. The front desk service was enthusiastic, and check-in was quick. The location is convenient, quiet, and well soundproofed, offering great value for money. Overall, it was a good experience, and I would choose to stay here again. This stay exceeded my expectations! The room was spotless, with no strange odors or clutter. The bedding was soft and comfortable, and the soundproofing was excellent, allowing for a very peaceful sleep. The front desk staff were friendly and responsive, and the facilities were complete and functional. The surrounding area offers convenient transportation. It's excellent value for money, highly recommended.

Very close to the sea, and the facilities were decent. However, the bathroom light was broken, but it was fixed the next day. Facilities: A bit old. Hygiene: Alright. Environment: Excellent. Service: Very good. Free access to the surfing pool, wave pool, and lazy river: Didn't use them, but they looked good.

Great location for a 2 day solo trip. Great sea view and very convenient for all the local attractions. It was very convenient for access to the excellent Corniche for walking. Always well priced taxis outside. I was on half board, breakfast though plentiful was not to my taste. However the buffet dinner was outstanding and very highly recommended. There appeared to be no reduction for a solo traveller as I had to pay for meals for 2 ! All in all a great stay and will certainly visit again!
