Hotel Sofitel Abu Dhabi Corniche (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates)

The skyscraper architecture of the Sofitel makes it an amazing choice if you’re looking for views of the Arabian Gulf. There are 44 floors at the hotel, so if you want a specific view be sure to request it during the time of reservation. The rooftop swimming pool also offers exceptional views to enjoy during a stay.

When you’re greeted at check-in, the staff works hard to make sure your accommodations are just the way you want them. Personalised services and attention are provided to make your stay as luxurious as possible – if you have any special needs, let staff know as soon as possible.

If you’re in Abu Dhabi for business, the Sofitel is a good option. The business lounge on the 36th floor offers exceptional views and plenty of business amenities – additional amenities in the meeting rooms include overhead projector, podium and high speed Internet.

When dining at the restaurants or cafes, service can be hit or miss depending on the time of day or season visiting. During busier times, it can be expected that service might be slow so be sure to give yourself some extra time if you have an appointment or meeting somewhere.

Due to the architecture of the skyscraper hotel and the location, sunlight might not always be present at the outdoor swimming pool. At check-in, ask the hotel staff about optimal times where the sun is shining on the pool if being outside for sunbathing or lounging is important to you. For some, lounging poolside in the shade is ideal.

While the Club Lounge is an ideal place to relax with friends, there is the potential to experience slow service or limited food and beverage selections.
