I've now stayed at this hotel several times now and for me gets better each time. We always stay on the Gold floor where the service is always attentive, thoughtful and caring. Stephen and his team always deliver and we will be back next year.
This was our very first visit to the UAE and we hit the jackpot by booking and staying at the Fairmont Bab Al Bahr. From the moment we arrived until the day of departure we were made to feel very welcome by each and every staff member. I must thank in particular Rajan, Phoo, and Sanjiv who went above and beyond to make sure our holiday in Abu Dhabi was spectacular and unforgettable. Our beautiful suite, courtesy of a fabulous upgrade , made us reluctant to leave. I hope you like the photos I have included and if you are thinking of holidaying in Abu Dhabi the Fairmont Bab Al Bahr should be your only choice of hotel
We had a pleasant stay at Fairmont Bab Al Bahr and particularly enjoyed the spacious room and the very comfortable, generous-sized bed. The reception team were professional, welcoming and efficient throughout our stay.
The room was acceptably clean, and one thing we really appreciated was how quiet it was. We could not hear any noise from the neighbouring rooms, which made for a very peaceful and relaxing stay.
Breakfast was also enjoyable, with attentive service from the team. A special mention to Sudula for his warm and friendly service.
We also appreciated the small sustainability touches, such as the glass water bottles and wooden brushes instead of plastic.
Overall, a comfortable stay with professional service, a spacious room and a peaceful atmosphere. We would be happy to return.
I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude to Miss Reem and Miss Auristelle for the world class attention given to my Son on his recent visit - nothing was too much trouble, which is why we regard this Hotel as one of the finest in the whole of Abu Dhabi. Thank you so much
