Sofitel Corniche, Abu Dhabi

Location

I think hotel needs to be renovated

The staff were very friendly especially Carlos he was very kind and he helped us alot The breakfast was great

The bed was not comfortable. The mattress need to be changed

Everything a breakfast should be.

There wasn't a bad thing about the breakfast.

After a travel trip with terrible or no bathrooms it was a pleasure spending time at the Sofitel with the superb bathroom and products. A bath with a view of the Corniche . Excellent choice of food for breakfast. Comfy lush bed. Beautiful foyer and waiting area.

The GYM

The room looked old

The swimming pool was very nice, the rooms clean, the staff was kind and professional and the breakfast was delicious with many options :)

Because we had to leave in a hurry we wanted to take some things with us from our breakfast table (croissant + fruit), but they told us we are not allowed to take anything with us outside of the restaurant. I thought this was a pity as we are wasting food (it was already on our plates so they cannot put it back) & we would take it in our hands so no extra packaging was needed :(

Got a spacious room with a nice sea view as we requested. Breakfast was good.

Pool was clean but the water was freezing cold, was not set to room temperature.

The pool area.

Not many options for cafe / late breakfast.

Just a good hotel

A lot of overpriced stuff and the quality is alright not great. We have spent a good time for money but not more than that.

Hotel is on the Corniche and immediately in the neighborhood you have all one could need, cafes, restaurants, laundry, tailors, barbers, shops, etc …. Nice spacious rooms though.

The rooftop bar needs urgently a revamp as it is outdated, and not really a cozy and welcoming place. Also as picture attached the food people put out their doors should be removen and not left there until the very next day 😞 Pool area rather small and kids running around and screaming does not make it a cozy place to relax and have a bite or drink.

Location and friendliness of the staff, breakfast was amazing. Quick responsiveness of the staff to change our room, as the AC in our room did not work at night.

Dust was on remote, TV and radio. Spoon was used from previous visitor and not cleaned. Small dust and hair in the cups near the coffee machine.

Very good breakfast, and the food in the bar fizz was really nice, with very attentive and helpful staff. Location is irrelevant in Abu Dhabi as everyone takes taxis!

There was a smell in my room of stale cigarettes despite staff assuring me it was a non smoking room. Not many options on tv channels

Facilities, rooms and services.

Was all good.

The property is clean, good location and friendly staff

The pool is overshadowed by the building itself in the morning time, the parking service staff are chaotic, sometimes they loses the keys sometimes they take too long to bring the car.

It is really comfy! I love the facilities. I really enjoyed the jacuzzi.

Bath tub is really confusing, I have to call the desk to ask them open it for me, later I realized it is just too stiffed thats why I cant open it. Even the lights on the hall way, sometimes it is not working.

Clean, friendly stuff great location wonderful breakfast

I did not be told or guided by the staff about breakfast time and idea about facilities in the hotel at the beginning of check-in, which is ready considered as negative thing

Amazing hotel and room has a stunning marina view. We’ve stayed just for 1 night, staff was helpful and assisted us with all the requests.

Nothing

The location is close to all major malls, and office areas making movements in between very easy. It's close proximity to the sea provides breathtaking views and the bank is just around the corner.

All hot water kettles need to be replaced or thoroughly cleaned. They are stained with limescale which makes taking that cup of coffee or tea very unpleasant.

Everything was optimally comfortable.

The air-conditioning needs deep cleaning.

Location and breakfast are good.

No hygienic showers, Fitness is very dirty, especially washrooms

Location, easy check out

Service. Everytime I needed something I would keep calling for more than 15 minutes just for someone to answer me. Room dining and concierge super slow in responding. But housekeeping reply to phone really fast.

Elevator takes so long, reception response slow in check in

Everything

Nothing

I recently stayed one night at Sofitel Abu Dhabi Corniche and was genuinely impressed by the overall experience. The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and equipped with excellent amenities that made the stay very comfortable. The attention to detail in the décor and the quality of the furnishings truly stood out. While I didn’t have a chance to try the breakfast or use the pool, the hospitality and service level were consistently high throughout my short stay.

A couple of small suggestions for improvement: it would be great to have separate tissue boxes available in both the bedroom and the bathroom, and it would be thoughtful to have prayer mats pre-placed in the room for guests who need them.

The hotel has a great location, close to everything. Room service was excellent, especially the burger. The spa experience was outstanding — special thanks to Mai from Thailand for her professionalism and skill in massage therapy. The shaded parking beneath the building was also a convenient feature.

There were a few drawbacks during my stay. The room furniture was very outdated and in need of replacement. The carpet also appeared worn and would benefit from either being replaced or removed entirely. There was noticeable noise coming from the adjacent room, which affected the overall comfort. Additionally, the air conditioning was not cooling effectively. Despite setting the temperature to 18°C, the room remained around 22°C, causing discomfort during sleep — I found myself sweating under the blanket. These observations are shared with the intention of helping improve the guest experience in the future.

Everything

One of the room was lettle far of the others

Location is very good, easy to access to corniche and also close to Abu Dhabi mall

Slightly expensive. The pool is a bit lower, if there is roof top pool, it will be better

Staff

Location in bussy area. Pillows options are limited. Pillows was not comfy for us.Asked for mid firm pillow but had a hard one . Breakfast is Ok.

The location and the view wise was good and also staff was was very friendly

It was dusty not clean

The pool was great.

The bed a bit hard,and needs new curtains that keep all the light out.

Room. It is big and comfy with a good sea view. Thank you for the cute birthday cake for my wife.

My kids don't like the food in breakfast buffet, less option for picky kids. No facility area for kids to play. No fridge inside luxury room with sea view.

Couldnt close the AC in the room, also, the light switches for the bathroom were hidden.

Location and the view

Tv channels were not indicated correctly The lady who answers for the dine in service is not friendly and has an attitude which is not great when dealing with guests

location. staff. clean

room little bit small

The staff were super friendly and helpful

Cleanness

The room was spacious and clean. Carlos upgraded us which was a lovely suprise. The breakfast was excellent with lots of fresh fruits and vegitables and an omlette sation. The pool was really nice but you have to arrive early to get a beach chair.

Location is very good, breakfast is very good too and the staff are very nice and helpful, especially Mr. Kirlos Abdou, he tried his best to make our stay enjoyable. Will definitely recommend staying there

Friendly Staff

I asked for a twin bedroom for me and my mom I was given one bed, the water hose in the toilet was not functioning properly. It was late night and I couldn’t change the room with my 60 year old mom. When I talked to the receptionist in the morning he told me it’s impossible that the room is a single bed room as it’s mentioned in the system as 2 beds.

Nice hotel, chosen for location near where family were staying. Comfortable room and good value.

We didn’t spend enough time there to really notice.

We had a very nice stay at Sofitel Abu Dhabi. Kirlos and Allen at the front office were great. Love the service and personal attention.

Location was nice! Easy connection (with uber) to places we wanted to go. Loved the pool area!

The non-smoking room had that old smell of a room that was once a smoking room

Breakfast was excellent and location was awesome

View to the sea was nice, refreshing outside. Good choice of alternative dining options, Jazz bar was nice. Enjoyed pool side dinner outside.

Listed Dinner time did not match reality, 1 restaurant closed earlier than advertised.

Nice hotel to stay well located in Abu Dhabi! The hotel could use some updating, a bit old-fashioned for my taste.
