OUR RECOMMENDATION
This hotel is perfect for the modern business traveller and for visitors that like luxury combined with evening entertainment, good dining and the vicinity to the city. The staff is overly friendly and one feels at home in this cosmopolitan, lively hotel. The Rosewood offers plenty of opportunities to sample the divine food of the hotel´s restaurants and to enjoy the beautiful views over the city from the 2 terraces. The gym is very large and the sporty visitor will find it well equipped. There is no beach, so if you are looking for a beach holiday, we recommend to book in one of the luxurious hotels on Saadiyat Island.
