Indeed such is the growth that we need a separate booklet to inform you of all the options. Back in 2004 most of the hotels were centred in downtown Abu Dhabi and Al Ain. Today you can choose from an array of accommodation ranging from iconic buildings – such as the opulent Emirates Palace, the striking Yas Viceroy Hotel or the leaning Hyatt Capital Gate, to exciting resorts and hotels on the islands and in the deserts of the Western Region, to beachfront resorts around Abu Dhabi city’s coastline, ultramodern retreats on Yas Island, luxurious havens on Saadiyat Island, tranquil get-

It is good to know that some things never change. Wherever you stay, I wish you a pleasant trip and one that is so enjoyable and memorable that we will welcome you back time and again.
