We had a lovely stay at Al Maqta (which is still truely known as Rocco Forte).
Rooms are super clean & luxurious because the hotel is new & well looked after.
Very quiet when we were there & sometimes we had the whole pool to ourselves!
We ate at the chinese & itallian restaurant in the hotel-good (not great) food...

Rocco Forte Hotel Abu Dhabi – NOW OPEN A STRIKING URBAN LANDMARK. A vision of gleaming glass rising high above the city, Rocco Forte Hotels’ newest property stands out among the luxury hotels in Abu Dhabi. A striking new landmark in the emirate, the Rocco Forte Hotel Abu Dhabi is built from curved glass and its wavy structure – with not a single straight line in sight – is an architectural masterpiece. Up close, the blue and green glass panels create a breathtaking mosaic effect, mirroring the colours of the Arabian Gulf. Step inside and the interior is unlike any other hotel in Abu Dhabi. Olga Polizzi, who oversees the design of all Rocco Forte Hotels properties, has blended European and Middle Eastern styles to create a look that is sophisticated and modern, yet sumptuous in detail. Bespoke works by local artists adorn the walls; richly patterned fabrics give each of the bedrooms a stylish authenticity; the finest materials sourced from all over the world are used throughout. Renowned for its five-star service and facilities, Rocco Forte Hotels focuses on the finer details. Every one of the hotel’s 281 spacious bedrooms is state of the art, with LCD flat screen TV, iPod dock, large marble and limestone bathroom and luxurious furnishings. Rooms and suites on the exclusive Executive Floor offer complimentary access to the 8th floor Executive Lounge and a dedicated concierge service. The hotel’s spectacular, individually designed Presidential and Royal Suites each have a large, private terrace. Conveniently situated in the heart of Abu Dhabi, the hotel is within easy reach of the airport, the Abu Dhabi Exhibition Centre and the city’s key attractions. Explore the islands, coast and beaches, visit local places of interest, such as the nearby Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, and sample the world-class sporting opportunities, including equestrian centres, golf courses and Ferrari World, the world’s largest indoor theme park. If shopping is a priority, there is a luxury mall next door. The hotel also provides a complimentary shuttle service to other popular malls nearby. The restaurants and bars at the Rocco Forte Hotel Abu Dhabi are destinations in themselves. Blue, on the 6th floor of the hotel’s 11 storey, all-glass atrium, is a cocktail bar that appears, from the outside, to be suspended mid-air. The talented culinary team have overseen the menus at Oceana Grill and Oro – the hotel’s authentic Italian restaurant – to ensure a first-class dining experience. Spend a blissful few hours in the hotel’s large luxury spa, which has separate facilities for men and women and an authentic Moroccan Hammam, or work out in the Health Club, fitted with the latest Technogym equipment. Outdoors, the 25m pool is the perfect place to take a dip before basking in the desert sun.
