Dear Visitor,
The publication of a dedicated
guide on Abu Dhabi’s expanding
accommodation options demon-
strates just how far the destination
has come in a short time. Just seven
years ago this emirate had 62 hotels
and no official star-rating system
and we could list our properties
easily within the visitor guide.
Today the emirate has over 130
hotels, hotel apartments and resorts
- and the number is growing. Indeed
such is the growth that we need a
separate booklet to inform you of all
the options.
Back in 2004 most of the hotels were
centred in downtown Abu Dhabi
and Al Ain. Today you can choose
from an array of accommodation
ranging from iconic buildings – such
as the opulent Emirates Palace Abu
Dhabi, the striking Yas Viceroy Abu
Dhabi or the leaning Hyatt Capital
Gate, to exciting resorts and hotels
on the islands and in the deserts of
the Western Region, to beachfront
resorts around Abu Dhabi city’s
coastline, ultra-modern retreats on
Yas Island, luxurious havens on
Saadiyat Island, tranquil get-aways
in Al Ain, state-of-the-art business
properties in the heart of the
capital and a distinctly modern resort
adjoining the Abu Dhabi Golf Club
championship facility. And it doesn’t
stop there. We are looking forward to
the opening of new properties, each
with their own unique and special
features.
I am confident that no matter where
you stay you will find superior service
– certainly we are doing our best to
ensure that you are greeted by a truly
professionally trained workforce –
and, of course, in 2013, as in 2004,
you will receive the same warm
Arabian welcome which is integral to
our cultural heritage and for which
the emirate is now known. It is good
to know that some things never
change.
Wherever you stay, I wish you a
pleasant trip and one that is so
enjoyable and memorable that we
will welcome you back time and again
Mubarak Al Muhairi
