I needed a cheap hotel for an overnight stay whilst in transit in Abu Dhabi and that is exactly what I got. I thought the hotel provided excellent value for money.
I took a taxi from the airport which cost around £22 and took approx half an hour to the hotel. Walked into the very no nonsense lobby (it is not a luxury hotel) and were greeted by two very friendly receptionists who swiftly checked me in. During check in I enquired how much a late check out would cost and without hesitation they offered me a 2pm check out free of charge which was nice.
I had a HUGE room on the first floor with kitchenette (including microwave and espresso machine), sitting area and separate bedroom. The room was great and very comfortable. The hotel does seem to have a couple quite lively bars in the evening and I could hear the music in my room but it did not continue until too late.
Wifi was fast and free, had no issues.
I went to breakfast in the morning which was around £12 and again whilst not a lavish spread it represented great value for money. Poached eggs etc were available to order included in the rate and also included barista coffee.
The gym at the hotel was very good also.
All staff very friendly and helpful.
Would definitely return.

Worst Service ever encountered.....
Booked the hotel for 1 night. Checked in late evening and asked the receptionist to give me quite room. She has assigned the room road side where whole night u can hear the noise from vehicles.
Asked for 1 bath towel, dental kit thrice to deliver the room however finally came only dental kit in the morning. Supervisor came along with the staff said they do not have any single towel in the hotel.
Another disaster in the morning when I went for the breakfast, 2 employee literally fighting in the kitchen area where you can see from the restaurant. Top of that you need to fill the form to order your breakfast which would have informed at the time of check-in. I could have ordered in the room. I have ordered Masala Ouellette which came to table literally dipped in curry. Wasted money to include breakfast in the room.
Thought to relax on the pool after all this horrific experience.
The pool attendant litterly offended that you are not allowed to swim cause you are wearing a jeans short. He doesn't have any idea what kind of material I was wearing to swim

It service given by this hotel suits it's title. I stayed here for almost 2 and half month.. the hospitality was awesome.. staff was so friendly and helpful. The housekeeping guys specially Mr. Laxman and Mr. Macferrd always did the great job. You need anything they are there to serve you. Reception is very polite and makes your check in or check out process really smooth. Reception staff like Mr. Ameer and Ms. Zinky always keep spreeding smiles and make you smile whenever you pass by reception. The security guy rather I would call him my friend Mr. Joseph, a polite, positive and hard-working guy, always helps you if you need anything. We share a special bond, a friendship which will make me to travel from India to Nigeria for his wedding.
It's actually a Home away from Home.
All the best guys you all are doing fantastic job.

Our recent stay in Al Ain palace hotel was superb. We enjoyed with all the facilities they have like swimming pool, gym, sauna. They have nice restaurants too we went to little soho to have some drinks and crab and crew for sea food we really enjoy the service. The room was the basic king room, but was most comfortable, super clean and worth paying still for parking there is some extra charges no issues for.All tha staff members were professional and kind. Really i would like to appreciate the house keeping for the service they provide very quick and front desk Ms. Sujata always helpful to us rather for our request of room,guided with proper information and bell desk Sajith helping us with our luggage. I really liked at the time of check out they asked us how was your stay, in other hotels i never heard from them. Must say worth paying for. We will most definitely stay here again.

I visited Al Ain Palace Hotel with family, we received a warm welcome and were taken care well my the staff. Property is right in the middle of Abu Dhabi City with easy access to all prime locations. Right outside the hotel is a beautiful park, a good place to relax with family. Abu Dhabi Corniche (Sea Side) is only 5mins walk. Very good swimming pool, health club and surroundings.
They have well experienced staffs who tries to go extra mile to provide great hospitality to guests. Thanks to the staffs for making our stay special. I would definitely want to come back here.
