Great location

Lovely friendly staff, particularly reception; pool nice and amazing temprature control, although very little and deep; sun leaves the pool about 12.30 but it's not that far to the beach. Perfect location in the mniddle of everything.

Location and value for money

Best location if you are doing most of your business in Abu Dhabi (town). Easy to get a taxi on Hamdam Street - two good restaurants on site and very good value for your money.

Good location at a reasonable price

This was a business trip, so my requirements were comfort and quiet with something to do over the weekend. I was pleasantly surprised by the location and comfort of the room. The room was tastefully decorated and the bathroom very nice. I do like a soak in the bath, after a hard day on my feet in the dust. I am only of average height and the bath was way too short for comfort. No big deal, especially if you like a shower. The noise from outside usually subsided at night. However, the impatient local drivers obsession with their car horns kept me awake most of Thursday night; fortunately it was the weekend. If you want a quiet room then the pool side of the hotel might be better. As always in the UAU the service was excellent. The pool is pleasantly situated outdoors on the 5th floor with the well equipped gym next door. With many local hotels charging for internet connection it was an attraction that it is free of charge in this hotel. It was a wired connection to the desk and there is also wireless in the lobby. There are plenty of local eating places from "Just Falafel" for a couple of pounds to the more expensive options. I didn't use the hotel restaurant but judging by the imposing French chef I met in the lift it is probably good. I will certainly choose this hotel again and look out for Novotel elsewhere. I would also be happy to book in with my wife or a family.
