We were easily from the hotel at the airport and also again back brought. On request we have been to every opportunity provided a taxi. The information about the excursion possibilities (here: tour Abu Dhabi with the hop on hop off) were very extensive and from the concierge of the hotel personally delivered. Unfortunately there are currently construction nearby the beach. The us so far did not disturb however the access to the beach very tentative. On the penultimate day we joined experienced and seen that it also a room with Kicker, wii and Playstation returns. For children this is ... a great opportunity as we found. A great hotel - we we absolutely recommend ☺ read more

Decrepit 5 star hotel with small defects
  • Hotel not recommended

  • Beach holiday
  • March 2013
The interconti in Abu Dhabi is one of the older hotels of the city and one among many 5 star hotels in the square. The rooms are appropriately large and have either a window to the pool/ sea or the city. Wifi is in the room and also by the pool with moderate speed available. The guests stayed in the pool area mostly german or russian. The hotel has quite potential. By amateurish dealing with complaints and defects/restrictions with the leisure facilities the hotel i would in view of the many alternatives at the travel site not really recommend. read more

    Size of the room is absolutely sufficient and also the condition overall very good. The rooms are equipped with a huge bath with a big shower and bathtub, as well as a separate side room with a toilet. Balcony is most rooms not available. There is a large flat screen tv (including ARD, ZDF, RTL(?) , as well as a water kettle with tea and instant coffee.

    Friendliness and atention of the staff basically very good. Good service also by the pool. (among other things. Complimentary drinking water in small cooler) Room cleaning and dealing with complaints in our case unfortunately rather mixed. The shower in the bathroom there was leaky and water for the shower in the entire bathroom run. A first complaint at the front desk ran unsuccessfully-you said, that the problem of establishment, but nothing happened. (apart from the complaint on the next day in the system than done deposited.) With the 2. complaint on the next day at the front desk was therefore assured, that 'right' someone would come with us the damage to inspect and repair to begin. After two hours (!) The waiting in the room was nobody appeared and so there was the 3. complaint, that we simply ask the room change should. The room was technically, was on another floor and had another housekeeper. This understood it unfortunately not (obviously months?) The glass floors of a small regales the dustbin. The sight was when the light for a 5 star hotel quite unusual.

    The offer for itself extensive, but with weaknesses: Hotel features a pool (including pool bar), as well as a small private beach. The pool is already a bit dated and when diving you see clearly, that the border and on the floor of the pool already many small tile missing. In general the complex therefore slightly neglected. Around the private beach is currently a construction site all the way to the revaluation of the land- the use the beach was so declined. There is tennis courts and a gym (with sauna, steam room and hot tub-which unfortunately was out of order)

    Running time to the airport is around 30 to 45 minutes and costs about 65 aed. (~13 Euro) The hotel is at the sea and is only by the hotel's harbor from the (private) beach separated. 15 minutes on foot (alternatively: hotel shuttle - is however because umwegs not faster than on foot) is the Marina Mall with shopping possibilities (including Carrefour in the basement)

Inter continental in Abu Dhabi is a great choice. The staff could not friendly and have been more helpful. Absolutely great! We stayed in a comfort room. The was perfect. The cleanliness %blank% of the room, as well as the entire area is fantastic. The hotel has the 5 stars, which it has, definitely got along. We had the accommodation with half board booked. Breakfast and dinner in buffet form is offered. The choice of food could not be better! If you didn't get full here, it is your own fault. The hotel has a beautiful pool. Furthermore, there was ... a hotel own beach chairs and sunscreens is possible available. A tip i would like to add: the buildings are crazy down cooled, so that it after a short time was cold. Therefore, you should definitely always take a jacket or a cloth have. Also one should never from the house/hotel, without mineral water with you! read more

We were very comfortable in this hotel. The staff was always very friendly and willing to help. The room was big enough, unfortunately there are no balconies and the window can, for security reasons, only about 10 centimeter be opened. The furnishing is not any longer completely rope fresh, but the room was tidy, fresh and clean renovated. The bathroom is well equipped, separate toilet and bidet, bathtub and shower with normal-and rain shower. On the carpet in the courses sees one, that the hotel is already a bit older. The building alone is however very popular, the terraces are ... in the evenings always fully, the view over the hotel-own Marina is very nice. At the beach is there a new Beach Club built, the noise nuisance holds itself however within limits. The pool on the 3. floor is however very nice and very clean. All in all a lovely hotel, we will gladly again go there. read more

In any case the hotel is recommendable, we had really beautiful 2 weeks, a mixture of city and beach holiday. The staff is in all areas very friendly and helpful, we had no complaints. The food was in the whole time very good, with a large choice. Currently has the new pool area is being built, but it didn't bother us. The only thing we not so nice was, even though we knew in advance, was after the long overnight flight the very late check-in, arrival at the hotel about 7:30 check-in was without an extra charge but only ... around 14:00 possible. read more

We have a wonderful vacation with our children spent in the hotel. Was outstanding the service. The well-trained staff anticipated nearly each desire from the eyes. Also child-friendliness is here very important, in the emirates. Very poignant has the pool boy dipak (occasionally in the breakfast service) to our daughter Lara taken care of. A very big thank you to the fmb director Nick, Francesco, ramly and nasr al abri. Also a big thank you to the gm Dieter franke, very accommodating and friendly. Overall, we were positively surprised from Abu Dhabi, about the friendliness and excellent service. A wonderful ... holiday destination. We have a new destination discovered. read more

The hotel lies at a Marina with berths for about 100 boats. At the Marina includes a beach section, from the you with a approximately 150 meters broad estuary views of an artificial island with man made sand piles has. Under beach holiday with a view of the sea we understand something else, using our photographs can everyone as there own picture of the hog. Currently there is still under construction, there will be a pool area, restaurants, and a new beach bar. The construction is through high wooden walls optically tucked away, but the heavy equipment you can hear ... but. Another construction spot gives it also at the entrance of the Marina, here is another building. The hotel itself we find great, everything seems to be dignified, is clean and in good repair. Our room had furniture in dark wood and had a very comfortable double bed with really good mattresses. In the spacious bathroom, with sink and bath there is also toilet and bidet (through glass door separated again), and a spacious shower. The facilities of the room include safe, minibar, and a flat-screen tv with amongst others ARD and ZDF, and swiss RTL. And for those who need it: iron and ironing board is there. We spent our days by the pool on the terrace on the 3. floor spend. It was mostly enough chairs, only once it was really cramped. It was at the time of the Abu Dhabi triathlon, since the hotel was fully booked. The pool boys, the previous stays in this hotel still without being asked the desired beach chair with towels changed and a cooler with 2 bottles brought, have deteriorated. We had to us even take care of you and the things get. Otherwise is the service in the hotel and restaurants nothing to complain. A highlight is sure the buffet in the restaurant selection, which one as a part of half board you could choose between lunch or dinner to enjoy. There is a great selection of appetizers, soups, salads and main courses and the desserts are also great. Even at breakfast there is a huge choice, there should be something for everyone. Otherwise one could also in one of the other hotel restaurant food, where you can also in the open sit. Tip not far away the etihad towers. In one of these 5 skyscrapers is a jumeira hotel. And the hotel has an observation deck on the 74. floor. From there one has a really great view over Abu Dhabi and the sea. The drive up costs 75 Dirham, but the entrance fee is a verzehrbon for the lounge at the observation deck, so for coffee, cakes, soft drinks or afternoon tea be redeemed. And on the way home one can time the ritzy stores in the two untergeschossen the etihad towers standing. The is a small mall, but there are only luxusläden for watches and jewelry or clothes and shoes. read more

    Pool area very nice, fine dressing area with showers, schließfachern, toilets, found okay, very neat. Sauna area. Large, halle, but, as so often in southern countries... Sauna is neglected, small, 5 saunasteine on an old oven, dingy. Preferred hotel manager : the sauna and the steam room are ancient, filthy and are in no way the style of the intercontinental. Is ridiculous, that signs peace is asked, but from above (gym) trolls disco music from the screens. Together with music in the sauna area, we have a little amusement park feeling. Conclusion: pool area hui, hotel pfui.

    Small beach on the lagoon, behind a Marina. Until the middle of the year, an additional pool area built. Of course you can hear at the beach the noise. Am not dead. But by much nicer pool area. Airport Abu Dhabi... No idea. I fly from Dubai, 1, 5 hour transfer. Plenty to see during the journey. On foot you can not much to do. Take a taxi... Very cheap. To the shopping in 10 Dirham... 2 Euro. Drive to the mosque 25 minutes... 32 Dirham.

    We mainly used the standardrestaurant at the meal times is met. Here you have to say, plenty of choice and something for everyone there. However after one week also good time facilities left to be desired. There was partly theme nights such as' indian 'or' arabic buffet ' but also always international dishes and delicious grilled meat. The atmosphere was okay, the times however also very crowded, so we 2 times for a table about 5 minutes had to wait.

    The friendliness, we have very different experience. During the meal times in the restaurant one can only say, class and very accommodating. In contrast the pool area. Here you will not be served and need to wait. An order which surely not was cheap, comes rather disturbing the service of, unbelievable! In the reception area was very properly discussed and they were always helpful, good sunday The cleaning of the rooms was so la la. So for a 5 star hotel it shouldn't happen, the forgotten water tissues or the bed edges on tore clean wiped. In the hotel english perfectly, partly on the front desk even speak german.

    There was a fitness centre with well-equipped, modern equipment. For the hotel there is a marina. At the beach, which was very neat and with white sand pleasant to celebrate, there were enough free towels and and they had very probably relaxing peace. At the moment the seashore but renewed and by new buildings updated which optically a future pleasure promise. It is certainly a good thing, it's a pity that the building project still was not completed. Disturbing it was (even if one can hardly believe it) absolutely not! Very relaxing, we were except for one day, otherwise every day at the beach and the great water for cooling.

    Taxis were always from the hotel from available and the place was quickly and cheap to reach. Each drive, until to the other end of the city, cost only between 2a maximum 5 Euro. As shopping mall (very many available) we would Marina Mall the best name, where appropriate, the Abu Dhabi Mall. To the airport it was about 30 minutes, or roughly 40 kilometer on a well-developed, definitely jam-free traffic autoschnellstraße. The hotel is on the edge of the city at an offshore lagoon to the sea.

    The room was more than sufficient for two persons. Simply huge!. A large hallway with a built-in closet in which an iron and ironing board was, a safe, bar with hangers, and slippers. A large mirror was available. The room had a really big bed, next to a sofa and a small area with a kettle with various teas and coffee. The highlight was the huge picture window overlooking the corniche, etihad towers and Emirates Palace. At night just wow!. No noise, since the road at night not so busy. There were always enough water bottles in the room present and it every day water bottles refilled. The bathroom was also very spacious with a separate shower and bidet. On the large desk had a plasma tv a few german channels had. In the room there was also a between-plugs for the plug sockets on site. The air conditioning worked very well, the phone next to the bed could one the entire lights, as well as the air conditioning taxes ☺ all furniture and the whole equipment in perfect condition. The rooms, as well as the whole hotel area with the outdoor area was very clean and well maintained. Just a nice hotel, the five stars rating!

    There was a main restaurant on the 3. floor we always had breakfast and alternately lunch and dinner. The selection of different meals, warm, cold, hearty, sweet, local and european was more than adequate. We could not even try everything. 2 times per week there was a theme buffet. At the breakfast buffet were meals adapted to the different guest structure offered. A time with mexican food and a time with seafood dishes, sushi, etc. English breakfast, oriental food, lots of fruit, cereals, eggs in different variations from the chef. For asians soup, hearty, warm dishes, pastes, croissants and so forth at noon and in the evening there was always alternated warm dishes, several salads, fruit, chocolate, cakes and so on there was nothing left to ask for. For breakfast there were different juices, coffee and tea free of charge. For lunch or dinner you had a soft drinks per person free of charge. Since the tables in the restaurant at the weekend many local visitors to be reserved, because they have breakfast there or dinner it may happen that you a few minutes to wait for a table. We had however the whole week was only 1 time for breakfast. (circa 5 minutes waited ) the restaurant is very clean and evenings there was a very pleasant atmosphere with candlelight and the view of the city. In the hotel but there was still a yacht club, a belgian restaurant. The lighting of the restaurants in the outdoor area was really nice and the smell of shisha pipes staggered such a right in the world of the orient. The food in the restaurants themselves i cannot judge (i did not eat there). The preiskarte was in the room. The prices were already happig. The seafood restaurant by the pool was rather unimpressive.

    In the hotel, at the front desk and the country itself is english spoken. There was a staff at the front desk the german was but not always on-site. But as it is not as motivated as the other we didn't so often at it. The room twice on day very nice cleaning staff cleaned. Service was really super. Change of towels, bottled water, tea and coffee every day refilled. We are very early and normally we would have after the check-in a few hours our room wait, but our room was within a half hour ready. The luggages us already at the entrance decreased and the room brought. The wait was coffee/tea in the piano bar are offered. In the meantime after about 10 minutes, another employee and asked, if everything is okay and, if he can be of help. All, that means the entire staff was extremely courteous and friendly. Really great, great service!

    The location of the hotel was for us it was simply perfect, a great starting point. Emirates Palace was just a stone's throw away, we are at night on foot on the way, very quiet. The corniche is quite in walking distance. Taxis are with the concierge to order by a few seconds was also already one in front of the entrance. The doors were opened, gentleman like like it belonged. There are, provided from the hotel, a free shuttle service in the direction Marina Mall at certain times. Then you can super from the Marina Mall a public bus in the direction hotel swallow, costs 5 Dirham (circa 1 Euro.) Bus station directly in front of the hotel! Taxi costs about 20 Dirham more. To the central bus station is about 25 minutes from there you can take the public bus to Dubai go. Buses are perfectly alright, ride about 1,5 hours tickets are available at the bus station to purchase. Cost 40 Dirham. To the hotel le royal Meridien it was about 15 minutes drive by taxi. The public beach was also nearby about three minutes with the bus.

A pleasant and appealing hotel. Very clean and big room with a pleasant and very good service. The pool area is not really for small children thought. And the food in the buffet restaurant resembles sometimes a gamble, if one got a table would. Recommendable is the table for dinner to reserve, also with the half-board. The construction at the beach didn't disturb so much. All in all a lovely hotel for one week beach vacation. read more

The hotel is absolutely great what the service, size and furnishing of the rooms and the location in Abu Dhabi regards. The Marina shopping mall is only approximately 10 minutes out -minute walk. Extremely positive striking is the nice, professional staff in all areas of the hotel. Also the size all the rooms and the bathroom is exceptional. From the outside the hotel makes (typical interconti-concrete style) a not so good impression, however therefor all interiors and room very nice and tidy. The only downside during our stay were only the many, loud russians in the hotel. But for the ... poor and sometimes embarrassing behavior the russian (village -) guests can the hotel nothing. For this reason i would nevertheless the hotel recommend a lot!. read more
