Highly recommended.
You must adhere to their dress code.Written 22 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - VishvaAbu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates7 contributionsThe collection of art was from all over the world which was just amazing but the building and the overall architecture of this place is an absolute marvel. It is a must see in Abu Dhabi even for a couple of hours.Written 22 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- fozjonJaipur, India1,484 contributionsthe outside is quite stunning. Inside is rather opulent. But there wasn't a whole lot to see in the public areas that we can't see at other high class hotels. We did not take the paid tour.Written 15 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Aloha_is_sharing_HaSaratoga, CA8 contributionsThe is by far the best place that I have watched a Formula 1 race so far. However, I am looking forward to Las Vegas. One day, maybe Laguna Seca in Monterey, California will make the list.Written 22 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Hind A1 contributionNice place and friendly staff and fun rides.. my family and me like it.. thanks for great service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Written 25 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- fozjonJaipur, India1,484 contributionswe walked for a way along the Corniche beaches. We were there at about closing time for the beaches, so really only saw activity at Gate #4, we probably should have started at Gate #5. There are family beaches that require paymentWritten 15 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.

- Sdit197436 contributionsStunning views, fantastic food and service. Nice and relaxed and not rushed at all, plenty of coffee refills. Very friendly informative staff. Couldn’t eat all the cakes so staff boxed them up to take back to our hotelWritten 18 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Ben HCorte Madera, CA30 contributionsAbsolutely the best thing we did in Abu Dhabi, hands down. If you have any desire to learn more about Falcons and Falconry this is a must-do. Our guide, Hassan, was incredibly knowledgeable but just as importantly, funny! He was able to keep a crowd that spoke at least four different languages, engaged for the entire tour. It was amazing to be up close and personal to witness a bird “pedicure” and also to watch a feeding from very close up. Even watching a surgery in action was amazing and shows how much these birds are really cared for.
I can’t say it enough: do this tour!Written 19 April 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - VishvaAbu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates7 contributionsBeautiful beach which offers both family beaches and singles beaches. The water doesnt have waves and is quiet calm not to mention the water is very warm. Bring sunscreen because the Emirati sun is very strong. We played a bit of soccer because they had goals on the beach and cooled off in the water. Great beach and free too. Parking is a bit of a walk but maybe there is closer and we just did not find it.Written 22 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Brenda ANew York City, NY91 contributionsMade a quick trip here. Many stores to chose from. The area is beautiful with so much to do if the mall is not your thing. Walking around the area if you have the time would be worth it.Written 25 November 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- VishvaAbu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates7 contributionsRays bar on the 62nd floor had amazing views and delicious cocktails. They had a DJ the night I went with my group and we had a great time. It is not cheap but that is to be expected from a top bar with an unmatched view of Abu Dhabi.Written 22 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
