This was the most gorgeous hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The staff, from the front desk throughout the entire property, were super helpful! It was an enormous place and easy to get lost in, but it was also extremely comfortable and luxurious. Will definitely be staying here again when we visit next!

Overall good hard product, some parts of the hotel is a bit dated but the rooms are modern. The services are below standards of Mandarin Oriental. No welcome fruits, just a box of mini sweets. No one showed me the room and lack of attention from the pool staff. The room service food were terrible. I had a stir-fry vegetable with chicken for dinner. It was the worst Chinese food I ever had. It was too salty, and sour also overcooked. It is unacceptable from a hotel brand with Asian heritage. Overall not worth the hype.

Its was a pleasant stay. The place is huge. But the views were amazing and the pools were really beautiful. The only criticism would be the room service food. They could use a quality check. Had higher expectations for a hotel of this quality.

No VIP status received. Didn’t actually get given a room until 6pm in the evening and we landed at 7am. Told when checking in hotel was full in the king category and yet I could go online and book multiple rooms in that category. Hotel rectified some bits with free breakfast, champagne etc but it shouldn’t happen in the first place. Communication was v poor. Hotels huge… like a shopping mall. if you forget something from your room, it’s a 20minute round trip. Hotel is dated too. Doesn’t feel like an exclusive 5 star. Saadiyat properties way nicer, more modern and sea much more appealing. That being said restaurants are good and the place looks 10000x better in the evening. Beach restaurant sand and koal v v good. Hakkasan gave my husband food poisoning. Overall wouldn’t return. Wrong price for what you receive.
