Experience the timeless sophistication and chic contemporary style of Le Royal Meridien Abu Dhabi. Travellers from across the world flock to this graceful hotel - a jewel in the heart of the Middle East. The capital of the largest emirate in the United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi is making a name for itself as a rival in style to its northern neighbour, Dubai.

Entertainment is a mere stroll away, with shopping malls, the Corniche, and the best water-sport facilities, tennis courts, and golf courses in the city.

A Guggenheim Museum complex, designed by the legendary Frank Gehry, is under construction on the island of Saadiyat. Bani Yas tribes founded modern Abu Dhabi in the 1700's, but the emirate's history dates back to the third century BC, when nomads roamed the land. Mere minutes from Le Royal Méridien Abu Dhabi are the Al Hosn Palace and the Heritage Village, where visitors can discover a rich and varied past. The beautiful Corniche, the most popular boulevard in the city, boasts public gardens and promenades for recreation. Children will enjoy the parks strewn along this road.
