From the moment we arrived at Emirates Palace, we knew we were in for something special – but nothing could have prepared us for just how incredible our stay would be. This wasn’t just a luxury getaway; it was an experience we’ll cherish forever. The service throughout our stay was second to none – warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. A heartfelt thank you to Olga Kutsenok, who went above and beyond in helping me plan and execute our engagement. Her thoughtfulness, professionalism, and attention to every tiny detail made the moment even more magical than we could have imagined. Olga, you’re truly exceptional! Every meal was a delight. The food was some of the best we’ve ever had – beautifully presented and full of flavor. Whether it was breakfast, afternoon tea, or dinner, everything felt indulgent and world-class. We’d also highly recommend upgrading to a Club Room. The EP Club and the amazing team there add that extra layer of personalized luxury. The exclusive lounge, dedicated check-in, and the special touches throughout our stay made everything feel even more memorable. If you’re looking for a place that combines timeless elegance with world-class service, and where moments become lifelong memories, Emirates Palace is it. We can't wait to return. Thank you for making our engagement so perfect! Read less

Stayed 5 nights in this behemoth of a hotel, low season so nice and quiet, and wow what an experience, weve stayed in some amazing hotels and this is right up there. Booked a Club room for use of the EP Club and it was the best decision i made, the club is run by an exceptional Manager Ciara (thank you from us both) and her absolutely wonderful and proffesional staff, they are a credit to the hotel, every day they were on point, the Chefs serve up some of the best food/nibbles youll ever taste, it was a joy to speak to all the staff on a daily basis, wonderful people. The hotel is spotless and cool even in the 37deg heat that was constant outside, its an incredible structure which i think everyone should treat themselves to visiting/staying at least once, i walked the entire grounds (losing 3lbs of weight due to the heat:)) and was stunned at the sheer scale/size of the place, do not let this put you off as they have buggys which run constantly. We only got lost 3 times, haha, and on one occasion there was a cat walk being assembled for a fashion show!! Security is discreet but at all the necessary points so believe me you are extremely safe (not that Abu Dhabi is unsafe, infact its one of the safest places to visit). the Hotel (Palace) has an abundance of restaurants, your spoilt for choice, 2 Michelin starred ones and a Michelin guide book recommend, we tried them all!!!, incredible, the staff, service, ambience, layout and of course the food all amazing. We did brunch at Broadways, fantastic, in our whole stay we did not have a single negative thing to say on the food and drink. we were actually half board so you could offset that with your bill in the above restaurants, incredible value for the quality of food you were being served. We did visit the Grand Mosque and Galleria to stretch our legs, both nice experiences but getting back the club lounge afterwards was even better! From Reception/room services/restaurant staff/security and all the other hundreds of employees we did not have a single bad experience, they were all a credit to this magnificent hotel. we never go back to the same hotel there is so much of the world to see but we both said to Ciara we would return here such was our experience. Thank you Mandarin Oriental Emirates Palace for a memorable 5 days. Read less

Exceptional Butler Service at Emirates Palace

Our stay at Emirates Palace was made truly unforgettable thanks to the outstanding butler service, especially from Thiri and Vinh. From the moment we arrived, both were incredibly attentive, warm, and genuinely caring. What impressed us most was how they never failed to remember our names—and even those of our family members. Whether we crossed paths in the lobby or passed by in the corridors, they would always greet us personally and check if there was anything we needed. Their attention to detail and thoughtful gestures made us feel completely at home and genuinely cared for. Thiri and Vinh brought an added layer of comfort and luxury to our stay, and their hospitality perfectly reflected the high standards Emirates Palace is known for. We can’t thank them enough for making our visit so special. Read less
