The Abu Dhabi Edition

Ethan Gabany

I cannot say enough wonderful things about how much we enjoyed our stay at the Abu Dhabi EDITION. We relocated to this hotel after an awful experience at another hotel, and the entire staff could not have been more accommodating or made us feel more at home. They went out of their way to accommodate an early check-in (10am!) and on account of my Marriott status, got us situated in an upgraded sea view room with a balcony. The entire hotel is fresh, modern, and well cared for. The staff is empathetic, kind, and hospitable. Although the hotel is not "tall," we enjoyed a nice view of the marina and city from our 4th floor room. Our booking through Amex FHR included breakfast for two daily and a $100 F&B credit, which can be redeemed at any of the three restaurants onsite. Breakfast in the Market was fantastic, Silver took care of us each morning and remembered our drink orders every day. Michelle from the guest experience team surprised us with a bag of "EDITION" goodies to take home and a lovely welcome cake, noting my Marriott amenity preferences. Not only would I recommend this hotel, but there is no where else I would consider staying on future visits to Abu Dhabi.

Wonderful stay at The Abu Dhabi EDITION, even during the busy Formula 1 weekend. The staff here are genuinely caring and attentive — every time I arrived with a bag, even takeaway food, someone immediately offered to help carry it to my room. A special shout-out to Prakash and Jeff, who brought such positive energy to every interaction and always seemed eager to help. Their warmth really made the stay feel personal and welcoming. I was initially concerned the hotel might be too far from Yas Marina during F1, but it turned out to be very manageable. Taxi rides were about 25–35 minutes, and once I got used to the circuit shuttle to Yas Mall and then a Careem/Uber or taxi, the process was smooth. After late nights at the circuit, I often stopped by the Library Bar for a light snack and cocktail. The drinks were creative, the food was very good, and the pineapple carpaccio was a standout — unique and refreshing. I also had dinner at Alba Terrace, which was excellent (truffle butter tagliolini) with great service. As a Bonvoy elite member, I didn’t receive the complementary breakfast at this location, which was a bit disappointing, but the evening turndown service with thoughtful snacks was a lovely touch. Overall, excellent service, great energy from the staff, and a comfortable, well-run hotel. I would happily stay here again.

Top-tier staff and best breakfast in town, but ready for a refresh. The Service: Simply excellent. The hotel is managed very well, with cordial staff across the board—from valet to housekeeping. The Hotel: While well-maintained, it’s not brand new. The common areas could use a refresh, whereas the breakfast area feels much more modern. I also noticed from photos that the gym looks a bit small and dated. The Breakfast: This deserves a special mention. The à la carte menu is outstanding. Despite the crowd, the quality of the food and the management of the service were perfect. Highly recommended for the service and dining experience

EXCEPTIONAL 5 STAR STAY. This hotel is an incredibly trendy place to stay. It's nestled by the Marina with some very cool restaurants and coffee shops. The hotel itself is modern, trendy, and sophisticated. The staff are amongst some of the kindest, attentive, and well trained staff I've ever encountered. Whoever their hiring manger is - is doing a great job. They genuinely seem like they are enjoying their job, and are at your very service. Highly recommend this hotel in Abu Dhabi for a trendy stay.

Had a great stay at The Abu Dhabi EDITION. The hotel is beautiful, calm, and very well designed. A special thanks to Aditya at check-in, he was genuinely friendly, helpful, and made the whole process smooth and easy. His welcome really set the tone for the stay. Would happily come back.
