"Excellent hotel. The staff are polite and always happy to help with any queries. The rooms are good and spacious. The windows don't open, but in January, even with the AC off, the temperature was comfortable – neither cold nor hot. The ventilation system worked well. We slept great; the mattresses were good and not worn out. Breakfast was a bit sparse, but you won't go hungry. There's a Burger King on the other side of the hotel building. The beach is a 30-minute walk away, and on the way, there's a WTC mall with a McDonald's."
"Overall, it was okay. The first room we were assigned was on the 16th floor and it was incredibly noisy, right below the air conditioning units. I'm not sure why they would put guests there. We called to switch rooms afterwards. I highly recommend asking for a room on a middle floor; the AC noise upstairs is really loud."
"This hotel is quite old, and my room had a musty smell that wasn't very pleasant. The facilities in the room were very retro. The gym, though old, was fairly well-equipped, but people from outside would rent it out for dance practice, and their shouting and yelling were quite disruptive. However, when there's an exhibition or a tourist rush in Abu Dhabi, you don't have many other options, so I just made do for three days.
On my first day, I even found stains on the bedsheets, which was just unacceptable. For a hotel under the Millennium name, this standard is really low. I guess it might be an older hotel that's been outsourced."
"I booked the hotel with a discount coupon and still they upgraded me from a studio to apartment suite. The reception and all the staff was amazing and very professional. Dry iron was not functioning well and immediately the crew provided me with a replacement. We enjoyed the sauna, swimming pool with jacuzzi. Our one night stay was enjoyable with a good value for money. Will definitely book the same hotel in the future."
"The hotel is located in the old town area of Abu Dhabi. The room was quite spacious. We arrived around 8 PM and checked in quickly. We were on the twelfth floor, which offered a nice view. It was my first time seeing toilet paper folded into such a cute bow 🎀, so I took a picture. I asked for an extra duvet, but they brought two blankets instead. You have to contact the front desk to get disposable slippers; they weren't in the room initially. Overall, it was clean. There's free parking, which was very convenient. The price was much cheaper than in Dubai, yet the conditions were better and the facilities newer. There are plenty of dining options nearby. Highly recommend!"
"The room was great, and the price was very reasonable. The bathroom was also good. The location is decent, with a Chinese supermarket and a small Chinese restaurant not too far away. The front desk staff were incredibly welcoming and even upgraded me to a suite for free. It was a really pleasant experience overall."
"Had a very pleasant stay at Mercure Abu Dhabi Downtown, even though it was just for one night. The hotel and rooms felt fresh, modern, and offered great quality for the price.
The staff were friendly and welcoming throughout my stay. A special mention goes to Nadira in the breakfast restaurant - she is genuinely hospitable and made the morning experience even better with her warm and attentive service.
I was also impressed by a couple of details: the AC was completely silent yet very powerful, which made the room extremely comfortable, and the water machine was something I hadn’t seen in other hotels before - a unique and thoughtful touch.
Overall, a great value stay with excellent service."
"I love everything about this hotel. The rooms are spacious , clean and comfortable. The staff are great with professional hospitality. The bars are the best especially the African club.
I enjoyed myself."
"Location is perfect, right in the city center on corniche, but at the same time, really well located for those needing to move (we were going to Yas island on a daily basis). Supermarket right accross the road, lots of restaurants around, service was perfect with the concierge and security helping us to catch cabs when needed... Recommended."

Great
AAnonymous UserThe room type I booked was quite spacious, though the decor felt a bit dated. The direct sea view from the room was nice. I tried both the breakfast and dinner buffets; there was a good variety of dishes, but the taste was just average. A great perk was the free access to the Etihad Towers observation deck, offering panoramic views of the Abu Dhabi Presidential Palace and the coastline.
CChun Myung KimReally spacious room, lots of closet space, and huge bathroom. Amenities wise, it was really upsetting that the adult-only pool was too full so we got rejected and had to use the family pool. And next to the family pool, there was a really loud construction happening so it wasn't a relaxing time by the pool.
EEva G.We stayed at VOGO Abu Dhabi Golf Resort & Spa (formerly Westin) from January 1–2 for New Year’s, and it was honestly an amazing way to start the year.
Special thanks to Yousef from reception, who was incredibly helpful and attentive. He assisted my kid in getting another room key and made sure he could go back up safely while he was playing outside, small gesture, big peace of mind, especially for parents.
Breakfast was very good with a wide variety of selections, the bed was super comfy, and everything was impressively clean, even the outdoor balcony seats. We were also given a great room with a beautiful golf course view, which made the stay even more relaxing.
My mom truly enjoyed the experience as well. Overall, it’s a calm, comfortable, and well-managed hotel, and definitely a great choice for families in Abu Dhabi. A lovely New Year stay and we’d happily come back!
MMohamed Seyed MafazWasn’t very happy with my toilet . Shower wasn’t working well . Parking facilities are very poor and service to bring the vehicle to reception was very very delay . Shortage of staff.
But location is good , rooms were decent and pool was goods
TToojingWe truly enjoyed our stay at Radisson Blu, especially the amenities—we loved and appreciated every moment of it. The staff were very accommodating and made our experience even more special by upgrading our stay to an Executive Suite. 😍
AAndy316Sara was the receptionist during checkin and she was very friendly and allowed late checkout on request. Free valet parking is available. The room was spacious, clean and aesthetically very pleasing. The breakfast next morning was one of best I have had - good variety and very tasty. Even during checkout the concierge and other staff were friendly and trying their best to help with our luggage. One of my best stays in Abu Dhabi and highly recommend Sheraton Khalidiya to everyone.
AAnonymous UserThe front desk is tiny, and so is the lobby. The Starbucks in the lobby is actually bigger than the front desk. I had to wait for a room inspection before checking out, which is something I haven't experienced in many years.
The bathroom is really old-fashioned. The hairdryer and magnifying mirror are installed incredibly high – you'd need to be at least 180cm tall to use them comfortably.
And to top it off, there were mosquitoes at night! I barely got any sleep.
GGuest UserThe hotel is clean but it is like a condo or flat type of hotel…but it is nice anyway. The food is so yummy with a lot of choices. For the location, it is about 15-20 minutes walk from Al Wahda Mall & so, it’s a bit far. Better to ride a taxi if you have a luggage because it is very hot outside esp. during the mid day. It is near anyway, in all the tourist spots of the city. At night as well, you can hear the music from the bar and also the sound of cars passing by outside.
The staff were so friendly, helpful & accommodating. For the service, I find it excellent. We had a pleasant stay in this hotel.
LLeny NinguiThe hotel is located in a very convenient area,up on my arrival is was received very professionally,the valet gentleman guided me to reception ,the gentleman that assisted me at reception was very professional and knew exactly what he was doing ,my booking confirmation didn't take long ,the valet assistant escorted me to my room .
To be honest ,the room was not properly cleaned as it still had dirty dustbins in the room and toilet,didn't seem like the beddings was changed as I was scratching the whole night and since I booked for only one night ,I really didn't have the energy to call housekeeping to change my bedding,the room had carpet and it didn't look like the carpet is regularly clean,the room had an unpleasant smell
The bathroom towels were dirty and unchanged so I opted not to use them , the bathroom floor was filthy as well.
The air conditioning kept blowing dirty air so I opted to switch it off to avoid getting sick , don't know if the air conditioning is regularly cleaned or maintained.
Since my car was parked at valet and I want to drive out so I went to reception gave my vehicle ticket for the valet assistant to bring my car ,at that moment there were many people checking in , instead of him bring my car out ,he insisted that I go get my vehicle in the basement,I told him I don't even know we're the basement is but he was aggressive and said it's easy in a loud voice,just go to the basement you will see your car,that was very strange however I continued to do that,that was very unprofessional from the valet assistant.
I realized that this valet assistantent was different to the assistant that initially assisted me up on my arrival .
It's strange to have one person determine the Review of the hotel but I also have to be honest to avoid this from happening nxt time.
GGuest UserWe booked this hotel knowing we wouldn't spend a lot of time in it and it would be a place to sleep. We found the things we wanted to see in Abu Dhabi were pretty spread out but this was central enough to it all. The hotel is located about 30 minutes from Zayed International Airport and Yas Island and about 15 minutes away from the Saadiyat Cultural District with all its museums and the Galleria area. There are some dining options and smaller stores nearby but it is a short drive away from some better options.
We booked a room with a king bed and had a good stay in it. The room was small but considering the price we felt it was well appointed with a mini fridge, coffee/tea station, small TV and a closet. The pillows were pretty comfy and we felt we had a good night's rest when we stayed. We booked a non smoking room and so did our cousin but it seems that despite what our booking website showed the smoking is allowed in many of the rooms. They did spray our room with a deodorizer before we got in and we felt it helped. There are enough plugs throughout the rooms and there was enough lighting even though it only came from the table side lamps. The area is very active and late into the night and my wife found it a bit noisy, had issues sleeping and needed to use ear plugs but I found it was quiet enough and had no issues falling asleep each night. We didn't need AC during our stay in February because our room was the right temperature for us but there was a thermostat on the wall.
The bathroom had lots of room and a good sized bath tub. The shower felt great and offered good pressure and plenty of steam. They had shower gel, shampoo and body lotion that are restocked each day. The ventilation could have been a bit stronger because the condensation from our steamy showers left the floor damp. Thankfully there is daily housekeeping to help with this issue.
There aren't any amenities at this hotel other than a small business centre. There are some restaurants nearby to grab a quick bite but we had to drive a bit to go to places we wanted to try. The parking nearby is all paid but is free between 11:00pm-8:00am and we were lucky our first night getting a spot right in front of the hotel with Unais' help but the second night we had to park about a block away. Parking costs 2 AED per hour but there are special rates for longer stays like 24 hours.
We felt this hotel was convenient for our stay in Abu Dhabi because we didn't want to spend a lot on a place we wouldn't spend much time in. This met our needs perfectly.
