Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental, Abu Dhabi

We were treated like royals from the very beginning – a huge thank you to Hamza at the reception, who does an outstanding job. We are truly grateful for his kindness and professionalism. What we especially loved was the pool in the evening – the perfect place to relax. The interior design is among the most beautiful we have ever seen. A true palace indeed!

Everything at this hotel was exceptional. If you are thinking of staying here, just book your stay! Look no where else because this is the absolute best you’ll get in Abu Dhabi. Everything really does go beyond your expectations. The staff are warm and welcoming and go out of their way to serve you. Complimentary tea and dates upon arrival. You get escorted to your room by the reception staff. We got a beautiful jar of pure honey upon check out too! There is everything in this hotel, you don’t even need to step out. We had buffet at vendome and it was purely divine. We were celebrating our honeymoon and my husbands birthday for which we got complimentary chocolate cake in our room with bouquet of roses, chocolate dipped strawberries and a box of chocolate covered dates. The staff at vendome gave us the most delicious slice of chocolate cake as well for my husbands birthday and the chefs came out to check on us too which was so sweet. There are free camel rides and paddle boarding and kayaking too. This hotel is truly a gem. Can’t wait to go again!!

One of the most exotic and magnificent palaces I’ve ever had the pleasure of staying in my entire life around the world. Here, you’ll feel like a true king. The hotel amenities are simply incredible. This is a massive palace, and working around the clock is a challenge, but they’ve managed to accommodate our requests accordingly. However, there were a few instances where they missed our requests. For instance, we had asked to iron our clothes, but the service wasn’t fulfilled, and nothing came to our room. Despite this minor setback, the food at the hotel is absolutely delicious. We tried a few of their restaurants, and each one tasted fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and will definitely be returning to this palace in the future, In-Shaa-Allah.

The EP is still a good place to be, this because of: > room size and style > quality of the restaurants > beach and pool areas > overall building experience > friendly staff

Koffi from the east wing beach morning shift just made the difference for us in every aspect. The service in the most authentic, respectful way you can imagine. Very intuitive and intelligent person with unique personality making the difference. 1.3 km beach with maximum privacy you can get on earth with the most respectful service.
