Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental, Abu Dhabi

10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely luxurious and fantastic hotel. The expanse of both the inside and outside of the property is beyond impressive and the attention to detail and a dedication to beauty and luxury is overwhelming. You truly feel like you've stepped into a palace from the moment you walk in. We were celebrating our anniversary and were treated to a bed decorated with elegantly arranged red roses and the most delicious chocolate cake. The breakfast buffet was expansive and decadent and the staff enhanced the experience with their kindness and warmth. Despite the fact that it was over 100 degrees outside, we still braved the heat and enjoyed the swimming pool, the refreshing lazy river and a visit to the camels on the beach. I truly hated to leave this lovely hotel and will definitely be returning in the near future."

"This hotel stay was just what we needed because we had a layover and we needed a place to rest for half a day. It’s a solid decent hotel for this type of requirement. The rooms should have a deep cleaning because we noticed some dirt behind cabinets when we were looking for one of our children’s toys."
