The hype
Staff are incredible and the beach facilities are top-tier, but the room quality varies wildly depending on renovation status.
Radisson Blu Hotel & Resort, Abu Dhabi Corniche
$150-250 / malam
Pesan ini jika You want a full-blown resort experience with a killer beach club without paying St. Regis prices.
Mengapa Orang Menyukainya
- West Bay Beach Club access (wave pool, lazy river, surf pool)
- Direct underpass access to the Corniche beach
- Sunset drinks at West Bay Lounge
Ringkasan Cepat: A legendary 1970s Hilton that got a Radisson facelift—the bones are old, but the beach club is world-class.
Ditinjau oleh @HakizimanaMarieAnge7993905: I found the perfect spot for our group dinner at Vertigo. The overwater deck feels like a Mediterranean escape, and the happy hour deals made the bill surprisingly light. If you're in Abu Dhabi, you have to catch the sunset here—it’s magical.
