There's one picture on the listing that shows a beach. That is a complete lie. The hotel is in front of a dirty and ugly canal. The hotel is great, but the beach photo is unreal

Average stay, for 3 days, was disappointed to note that we had to constantly ask for the water, sugar, toilet paper and hand towels.

Value for Money

The stay was good.The bathroom had no toiletries like tooth brush, paste and razor. The bed had only two pillows and no extra. The breakfast was good and had a sumptous spread.

Checking in was smooth. Staff was very friendly. Rooms seemed old. Bath towels were terrible - rough and old is an understatement. Hot water was almost nonexistent. Breakfast buffet was ok - nothing extraordinary.

We stayed at the novotel as it was a good inbetween from the airport and locations we were looking to visit and the rooms were decent. As I had a long transit n Abu Dhabi, I intentionally booked for 2 nights so we would not have to wait to check in for 2pm as we reaching early morning and provided the Novotel team with our arrival info. Still ended up waiting for the room to be prepped as the staff at Novotel clearly had not read my message. So disappointed in that sense but overall the rooms and hotel is well maintained Hotel itself is clean

Avoid at peak times

Very average stay. Reached the hotel at 5pm (check-in time was 2pm) and still waited an hour to be checked in. Eventually was given a People of Determination room which we accepted since we did not have the energy or patience to waste more time. Wifi in the hotel is extremely slow. Taxi are easily available and the hotel was clean and staff was friendly.

The hotel is far away from everything. But, theres a bus stop out front that is very convenient. I could get anywhere within an hour. The hotel staff are awesome and friendly. The breakfast was delicious each day. The buffet at night was very pricy at $50 US dollars. I only ate there once. But it was delicious and a great variety of ethnic foods. The room is large and the bed is very comfortable.i was on the 9lth floor. There are no real views of anything in this location. I would stay here again though, when im back in Abu Dhabi.

Asked for double sofa bed to sleep on just got a sofa which doesn’t open into sofa bed. Half board is a joke just a buffet which they questioned you if you go up more than once.

Tolles Hotel, sehr große Lobby mit großem Restaurant inkl. Aussen Terrasse. Ein Starbucks in der Lobby, viele Sitz Möglichkeiten. Leider stimmt es nicht das das Hotel ein Shuttle Service anbietet sie können nur ein Taxi für dich organisieren. Zimmer sind großzügig und gut ausgestattet, schönes großes bad mit Dusche und Badewannen. Toller Poolbereich mit Bar und sehr gutem Service an die Liege sogar bis 22 uhr. Großzügiges Gym nur schlecht gewertet, keine Handtücher vor Ort.
