Experience five-star luxury and world-class service from a lavish Abu Dhabi hotel on the beach - includes breakfast, optional Club perks and more
  • Extraordinary luxury: Sitting in all its Arabian grandeur on a beautiful natural bay, the five-star Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental, Abu Dhabi is an opulent treasure offering guests a new age of luxury and hospitality. The service is world-class, the interiors are evocative of Arabia’s rich history, the private beach is pristine, and the amenities are second-to-none, from dining to spa moments.

  • The world’s finest cuisine: Traverse the globe without leaving the hotel thanks to 14 restaurants and bars. Savour everything from ‘contemporary-classic’ Indian fare and world-class Chinese cuisine to Mediterranean delights and decadent Middle Eastern and Arabian flavours - there’s something to tempt even the most discernible of palates. If you're after the ultimate treat, make your way to the Grand Lobby for afternoon tea and a coffee dusted in 24-carat gold.

  • Exquisite spa experience: Transport yourself to a realm of absolute relaxation at the opulent spa, where every single sense will be indulged. Alongside a traditional hammam, you’ll find two Jacuzzis, two steam rooms, and an ice cave. Then there’s a menu of rejuvenating massages, treatments, and facials, plus the world-leading Elixir Clinic for tailor-made VitaDrip® infusions.

How to get there

The hotel is located right in the heart of Abu Dhabi, on the West Corniche. Abu Dhabi International Airport is 37 kilometres away, which is roughly a 30-minute drive from the hotel.
