From the moment we stepped into W Abu Dhabi, everything was perfect! The check-in experience was smooth and welcoming, thanks to Dhabakar at the reception who truly went above and beyond. He ensured we had an amazing marina view and surprised my mother and sisters with a complimentary red velvet cake — such a thoughtful gesture that made our stay even more special. Our mornings were a treat, especially with Dishan, the cook in the kitchen, who made sure we had fresh hot hash browns served right at our table, even during the breakfast rush. His attention to detail and warmth truly stood out. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and waking up to the breathtaking marina view was pure bliss. We also had a great time at the Wet Deck, where one of the team members surprised us with complimentary refreshing drinks—a perfect touch! Breakfast was a highlight with a huge variety of delicious options. Every moment of our stay was filled with excellent service, comfort, and thoughtful hospitality. Thank you, W Abu Dhabi, for an unforgettable experience. We’ll definitely be back! Read less

Great service, great hotel even though it’s an older hotel, still maintains in modernity. I would say the breakfast restaurant could do with an update as the furniture looks a little dated. But staff were great and very accomodating. Pool is smaller for the size of the hotel but enough.
