This is one of the older hotels in Abu Dhabi but has been renovated and is very comfortable and well appointed. The room comfortable and the restaurant a highlight. The pool looked good (although I did not use it) and seemed popular. The conference attended was very well supported with excellent facilities provided. The location however was not the best....

A delightful return stay to Intercontinental Hotel Abu Dhabi. The Emirates Suite upgrade was outstanding treat. We love the Club, the staff and the atmosphere - always nice to be remembered. The Hotel car and driver were a class act. The only drawback was the very slow service at the pool Restaraunt, but otherwise a perfect stay.
