15 Best Hotels in Abu Dhabi
During the past 40 years Abu Dhabi has gone from a fishing village in the desert with one hotel to more than 170. From locally-grown brands like Jumeirah and Rotana to some of the most lavish of lodgings and recognizable names in the world, they all call Abu Dhabi home, and one thing is for sure, they’re all out to impress. Even the less expensive hotels have some flash to them. Of the incredibly elaborate offerings, Emirates Palace provides the ritziest of stays and a taste of palatial opulence, while Ian Schrager’s Abu Dhabi EDITION hotel, the first for the brand in the Middle East, is boutique luxury at its best. If the beach is more your speed, there’s a cluster of beachfront resorts on Saadiyat Island that provide views of the Arabian Gulf and private access to the sand. With so many different places to stay, there's a bit of something for everyone. Read on for our list of the best lodging options in the emirate.
