AD business visit

The Hotel does not have parking facilities so finding a parking after 9pm is a nightmare. The parking around the hotel area is Residential parking after 9pm and you need to get a permit to park in the common parkings on the road. Service was too slow and everytime we had to request for the daily water and coffee which was supposed to be in the room.

Overally OK..

Hotel rooms are generally spacious and comfortable. However, the facilities are a bit old and I was a little surprised to find cockroaches in the bathroom.

Grand Prix Weekend in Abu Dhabi

At 120GBP per night, excl breakfast, this was a very average stay.
Staff were over particular at check-in.
Within or adjoining the Hotel are two bars and a nightclub, at least! There's a very 'Indian' and masculine vibe throughout, i.e. I only saw one woman staying there and countless men (this may not be accurate on the whole but it appeared a very male dominated clientele in my eyes).
Expect to be hounded by 'ladies of the night' in the adjoining Attic Bar/Sports Bar.
Acknowledging it was Grand Prix weekend in Abu Dhabi but this place is very overpriced and I wouldn't pay >70GBP at any other time.
On the positive side, the room and bed were big, comfortable and clean (albeit the decor very dated) and felt relatively safe.

Worst hotel that I've ever stayed at in my life!

I've traveled for over 12 years internationally. This was by far the worst hotel that I've ever stayed at. The lobby is full of cigarette smoke. There is a bar on the 4th floor that is full of working girls. On the weekends, you can't even get in the elevator because there are so many people waiting to go to the bar on the 4th floor. Never stay at this hotel. Spend the extra money and stay at another location. You will thank me later.

Cheap Motel

Hotel has a night club on the top and first floor with woman surrounding the lobby late at night.
Music was blasting pretty loudly so customer staying on the top few floors would be able to hear it.

I had once came back to my room and found the door left ajar for god knows how long during the day...

Last resort hotel in abu dhabi

On arrival, was told that here is no parking, although booked with free parking on website. And, In abu dhabi finding even paid parking is a nightmare as its all resident's parking. Finally parked across the road and paid for it.
Was given a room on the 15 floor, room was renovated for the hotel which is old and sad. There is a night club on the 17 floor and they played loud window rumbling wall shaking music till 3:10 am in the morning. Only took the hotel to sleep, but alas couldn't even do that.
Please don't stay here if you have any other choice.

Where do I start

Well let's start with the free parking as seen on web site and even in the hotel book there is none and nobody seems keen on finding u parking. The front desk was not that interested by saying we keep telling them to change it. Then for some. Unknown reason the access card seems to only work for 24 hours great after u have gone up to your room overall disappointed

Friendly service at front desk. Cellar bar on ground floor provides an excellent band as well as providers that keep you company. The Safari club upstairs is rocking with loud music and fabulous energy. The hotel room was very very cold and I was unable to turn up the temperature. The 3 clubs upstairs is a happening place so the music vibrates the hotel. The parking situation is critical as you will need to find street parking and pay the meter. Also, there is a public garage across the street where you can park for days at a time.

Overall fine experience with service minded staff giving free water bottles and fruit basket at arrival.
Only downside was the noisy night club. I was on 9th floor and night club on the ground floor. Had to sleep with earplugs and never have issues with a bit of noise.
