Emirates Palace Abu Dhabi

Best

Nothing

The ambience and stunning decor, but not ostentatious All the facilities were impeccable The staff were discreet and hospitality great

Cant complain Internet facilities a bit more advanced

Impressive how place and beautiful rooms. The technology seems a bit too much ahead of time and created some challenges when the AC all of a sudden stopped working in the middle of the night and the iPad control did not work either. The service was good but not consistent ... catering staff ware excellent while the front desk staff which checked us out seemed less friendly and less interested in the fact that the AC had stopped working in the middle of the night which was not conducive to a good nights sleep. We previously stayed at the Fairmont hotel in Abu Dhabi, which in all fairness is far from as exclusive as Emirates Palace .... but the service was impeccable and as a guest, this service was very personalised and made you feel special. Emirates Palace did not display this level of personalised service which ultimately makes you feel a bit more distant to the place. Don’t get me wrong, we still very much enjoyed our stay.

In the international buffet I would propose that the grill is done in front of the guest. While the food was great, a lot of the meet was too well done and a bit dry. Most of the grill was is in heating treys and that would often dry out the meet slightly.

Everything was luxurious and the stay was exquisite
