Sofitel Abu Dhabi Corniche Hotel

Eman Gamal

The hotel is overall okay but not up to expectations. Breakfast was good with a nice variety of options, and that was probably the highlight of the stay. However, lunch and dinner were disappointing and really not at the same level as breakfast. The property itself feels dated and definitely needs some renovation and upgrades, especially in the rooms and common areas. With a bit of refreshing and improvement in the dining experience, it could reach a much higher standard. For now, I would say it’s an average stay decent for a short trip, but not a place I’d rush back to

Good overall stay at Sofitel Corniche. Staff were very kind and helpful throughout. The room could use some maintenance, especially in the shower and bathroom area. The swimming pool with a view and the gym are excellent highlights. Definitely worth the price for the location and amenities.

The Sofitel in Abu Dhabi offers a high-quality hotel experience, especially thanks to its beautiful suites. The one we stayed in was truly stunning—spacious, elegantly decorated, with a very comfortable bed and a great view of either the city or the waterfront, depending on the location. The overall ambiance of the hotel is nice and refined, living up to the Sofitel brand’s reputation. The service throughout our stay was good. Staff members were friendly, professional, and always ready to assist. Check-in was smooth, and we felt well taken care of from beginning to end. However, a small downside was the buffet offered with the half-board option. While the variety of food was good and the quality quite decent, the atmosphere of the buffet restaurant felt a bit too much like a canteen. We would have appreciated a more refined setting and a better presentation of the dishes to match the elegance of the rest of the hotel. The hotel pool is lovely—well-maintained and perfect for relaxing. That said, it’s important to remember that this is a city hotel, so it lacks the beachfront charm of resorts located by the sea. Still, it’s a great choice for a comfortable and stylish city stay.

My stay was wonderful! The reception staff, both morning and evening shifts, were very professional, polite, and helpful. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. It definitely won’t be my last time staying here — I’ll be happy to come back again

A luxurious and refined stay at the Sofitel Abu Dhabi Corniche, combining French elegance with Emirati hospitality. The location is prime right on the Corniche with breathtaking views of the Arabian Gulf and convenient access to the city's cultural and leisure spots. The rooms are spacious, stylish, and well-appointed, offering great comfort whether you're traveling for business or leisure. The bed and linens were incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom with its rain shower and soaking tub was a standout feature. What truly elevates the experience is the staff service warm, attentive, and detail-oriented. Every request was handled promptly and graciously, from check-in to concierge to dining. The breakfast spread was diverse and high-quality, and the facilities including the pool, spa, and gym are exactly what you'd expect from a 5-star experience. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting Abu Dhabi looking for elegance, comfort, and exceptional service. Rating: 5/5
