"While all the rooms are beautifully appointed and have sublime views of the Corniche and Arabian Sea, the Royal Club rooms are worth the extra dirhams for the Hermès products alone."
"Chic modern hotel catering to a mix of business and tourist visitors, with stylish, rather minimalist, modern rooms and a better-than average selection of in-house eating and drinking venues."
"Suites in the Royal Tower are excellent, while the rest of the hotel’s rooms are more than adequate." Full review

"Although far less opulent than Emirates Palace, Beach Rotana is one of my favorite hotels in Abu Dhabi." Full review
"Offering a quality experience in a convenient location with stylish design and first-class dining options, it's not surprising this sumptuous hotel is so popular." Full review
"While the well-appointed rooms are comfortable and come with good facilities, the attraction at this splendid hotel is the white sand beach and the popular PADI dive school."
"This smart modern beachfront resort-style hotel is probably the nicest place to stay in the city after the Emirates Palace, and a whole lot cheaper."
"Probably the most family orientated of the top hotels in the city, the Beach Rotana is connected to Abu Dhabi Mall, meaning shopaholics don’t have far to walk." Full review
