Four Seasons will open its first hotel in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE, on May 1, 2016, offering corporate travellers a luxurious base to explore the city.

Only five minutes from the city centre and 30 minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH), the 200-room Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi at Al Maryah Island is located in the heart of the Central Business District on a prime stretch of waterfront. The new hotel will feature six specialty restaurants and lounges; two ballrooms and five function rooms, with natural day lights and expansive water views; a full-service spa with light-filled treatment suites and separate fitness centres for men and women; and an outdoor swimming pool.

“The first impression our guests will have is of this stunning new hotel and all the services and amenities we offer at Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi,” says general manager Sam Ioannidis. “But the lasting impression will be of the unique experience of staying with us at Four Seasons. Our mission is to provide a thoughtful, personalised experience to each of our guests, whether it’s a productive business trip or a day spent rejuvenating at our spa, a fun-filled family holiday or an enjoyable meal with friends.” www.fourseasons.com
