We had an incredible time at The Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi. From the moment we arrived, Hakim's professionalism and warmth made us feel truly welcomed and cared for throughout our stay. The breakfast buffet was exceptional, and the restaurants offered delicious options. The lobby itself is stunning. Thank you for providing such wonderful amenities and services. The room was also fantastic. We can't wait to return!

Gorgeous hotel with top notch staff. We enjoyed our time at brunch. The choices were plentiful and far ranging. 3/4 of us went with the alcohol package and the drinks were very good. I enjoyed my cocktail, but it needed a bit more Rum in it. I asked for additional Rum to be put in my drink and it wasn't an issue. The brunch is a bit expensive, but is included in the Entertainer (2 for 1), making it much more reasonable. We spent the full three hours eating and could have stayed longer. The DJ amd the saxophonist were great (maybe turn the volume down a little so people can talk) and we really enjoyed them. Check out the pictures and videos, they tell the whole story. Pro tip...walk the whole buffet before you et your plate. So many options, so little stomach space.

We booked a room in this hotel only for 1 night and have requested in advance if they have a lounge for Elite members. We have received the confirmation that they have. Then when we came to the hotel they said that this lounge is excluded, although we had a confirmation that they have it. Rakesh Kumar, who was a manager, talked to us in very rude manner, argued (it looked like this hotel belongs to him) and instead of helping us to resolve this question, he denied and said that we understood something wrong. This is even not 5 star hotel with such attitude to the clients. It’s terrible smell in the lobby as well.

As this was my first stay at the Ritz Carlton hotel in Abu Dhabi, I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the moment I stepped into the grand lobby, I was enveloped in an atmosphere of luxury and elegance that set the tone for the entire stay. The attention to details in every aspect of the hotel's design and service was truly remarkable.
However, what truly sets the Ritz Carlton apart is its exceptional staff. In particular, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Hazem and Ruth who went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was nothing short of perfect. Their impeccable professionalism and genuine warmth, made them an invaluable resource for recommendations and assistance with any request I had, They exceeded my expectations with their exceptional service. Thank you

Location of the hotel is stunning - view of sheikh Zayed mosque is amazing. Check-in process was a disaster, despite it being 7pm and us having a toddler with us. Took more than 20 mins to get our luggage to our rooms. The bath in my friends room had pee and hair - clearly had not been clean. Their AC was not working for half of the time. Overall, our experience was extremely average. Not at all what I would expect from a five star hotel such as the Ritz. I will definitely not be returning.
