10/10 Excellent
"Really enjoyed my stay at the Conrad Abu Dhabi. The rooms were enormous, very comfortable and just had that feeling of having plenty of space to properly relax. I have to give a special mention to the pillows ,absolutely loved them! My head just sank right in and I slept incredibly well. Breakfast was easily 150%. The variety was impressive and genuinely covered different cultures and tastes, so there was always something new with plenty of flavour. I definitely ate much more than I normally would… whether that’s a good or bad thing, I’ll leave that open! 😄 The Observation Deck was the icing on the cake. Being 70+ floors up and getting a 360° view across Abu Dhabi was quite something, I could see as far as my eyes, and the binoculars, would allow. Overall, a great stay and I’d definitely use the Conrad again on my next trip to Abu Dhabi, unless I decide to try somewhere else purely for comparison! Uzo"
