Emirates Palace

Emirates Palace is a magnificent landmark hotel, resort and conference venue. The hotel is grand in every sense but also offers a welcoming atmosphere. The hotel has been open since February 2005 and boasts first class facilities and beautiful mosques. Set in 100 hectares of its own landscaped gardens, the Emirates Palace is located on the longest private beach in Abu Dhabi close to many local attractions.   The latest technology is displayed in each of the hotel's rooms and suites, all of which are luxuriously decorated with added touches such as gold leaf and marble. Amenities include music stereo systems, plasma screen TVs and high speed internet access.   In addition to two state-of-the-art fitness centres, the hotel also offers two swimming pools, a PADI diving centre, water sports facilities, 4 tennis courts and a children's playground. The hotel boasts a large number of restaurants and bars ranging in cuisine from Italian and seafood specialities to Arabic and Iranian delicacies.

People who like to be treated like royalty! When Clinton or Michael Jackson is in Abu Dhabi, they check into the seven-star Emirates Palace – this is also the hyped haven for local monarchs. So great is its dedication to royals, there’s private access straight from golden gates to the seventh-floor sheikh suites.
