Please avoid this hotel at all costs, they charge for the whole day and when you get there they say it is only for six hours, if you stay a minute over that they keep calling you to tell you to get out of the room.. The staff manning their front desk is rude and has no idea about customer service. This hotel is a total rip off, I can't believe something like this exist at an airport in Abu Dhabi of all places. As far as the room is concerned, it is very small, claustrophobic and has no windows. It is like a dungeon.
The star rating of this hotel should be a negative one star, however the room charges are as much as a five store hotel in Abu Dhabi. I was very disappointed. I am also surprised that Expedia has them listed on their website.

Excellent transit hotel to take when laying over between flights. Rooms are spacious and clean with nice amenties. The smart TV was not connecting to the internet but was not necessary given the time we were there and the rest we needed. The staff are very helpful and always looking to find solutions for you. My flight to Manchester from Kuala Lumpur had a long layover and I chose to stay at the hotel. I made an error in my booking dates and was then worried about cancellation charges and availability for my family of 4 (incl. 2 daughters). The staff member at the desk saw my uphill task and aimed to sort everything out regarding re-booking a room for my layover and requesting a cancellation process for the error booking. To the lady working on that Tuesday 2nd June 2026 at lunchtime - many thanks for your support during that period of my onward journey. It was greatly appreciated!

Is perfect if you need a 6 hour sleep in transit. They sell blocks of 6 hours for the price of a full stay outside the airport but if your transit time doesn't really allow for all the customs & passport procedures out & back in, this is a great solution. Beds are comfortable & the bathroom with shower makes the short layover more enjoyable.

The hotel is very clean and the staff were excellent. My only issue is that the walls are very thin and you hear the neighbour's, especially if they are being loud. The air conditioning was also stuck on cold so when i arrived into the room it was 16DegC, despite the setpoint being 22DegC. I couldn't be bothered to go to reception to change rooms so i simply turned it off and the room gradually warmed up.

The rooms are efficient enough, but couldn’t get a restful sleep because of a security maintenance (that we weren’t informed about) that resulted in a bright light pulp being lit for more than 2 hours out of the 7 hours we spent in the room. Called the front desk but they just told me to wait it up. No proper apology no care compensation.

I had a 9.5 hour layover and booked a room for 6 hours.
Once you've run the gauntlet of people waiting to get into the Pearl lounge you'll find the check in to the right.
My room was small and basic, no windows but most importantly:
Dark
Quiet
Clean
Comfortable
It's very much for sleep though there is a TV I didn't use. It's exactly what I needed for that length of a layover and surprisingly quiet.
Air con worked properly and the shower was decent too.
I'd recommend this to anyone needing a few hours of sleep.
NB if you are coming from another flight you need to go through security before reaching the transit area but are airside for when you leave.
