Aloft Abu Dhabi

Amazing hotel with amazing staff

Exceeded expectations

From the moment I got it I felt welcome. The gentleman at the reception (I think his name was Hamzi or something like that) was extremely helpful and took care of every request and answered every single one of my questions with great precision and knowledge. I was also welcomed by Rainier and was a real pleasure to hear from him all the other details about the property and the area. My room was awesome, spacious and yet very accommodating; simple but complete of everything I could need. The fitness room had state of the art equipment. I was able to watch CNN while at the same time check on the progress of my work out from the elliptical. Next to it was an inviting pool, where you can tell the designer got inspired. And right at the end of the pool there is an outside terrace with a restaurant where you can just sit and relax, enjoy cocktails or a meal with friends or family. I also had the pleasure of visiting the restaurant/club at the top where the almost 360 view of the area is fantastic. Sadly the kitchen closes at 11:30pm but I was still able to enjoy a drink... or two...

Everything was good

Ok With Caveats

All new construction so everything looked very clean. Very accommodating. Gym was small but nice.

One thing you should be aware of before booking is the situation with the pool. They hold a pool party probably once a month on Weekend. they shut the pool down and drain it afterwards to clean it. You should definitely contact the hotel to see if there is a pool party during your stay. While the hotel is smoke free, there is the very distinct aroma of smoking when the air is not circulating.

First time Abu Dhabi

I loved this hotel . There was a lovely roof top bar. The pool is absolutely amazing. The room was big, clean, and innovative. The shower and bathroom was very nice. Free computer and printing. Overall great deal .

Wish breakfast was included.
