the outside is quite stunning. Inside is rather opulent. But there wasn't a whole lot to see in the public areas that we can't see at other high class hotels. We did not take the paid tour.

We stayed at Emirates Palace for 2 nights as part of our Honeymoon celebration. Arrived at 1am and we were delighted to be greeted by the very friendly and helpful reception Lilya.
She explained about hotel facilities and shared a lot of interesting information during escorting us to the room.
We had a wonderful experience in Mezlai restaurant.
Quality of the food was amazing and the staff we encountered in the restaurant were all brilliant too.

You feel the importance and splendor as soon as you first enter Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi. We soon met a wonderful manager (Ciara Hannon) who immediately made us feel welcome and at home. She kindly offered us a room upgrade which was spectacular. From that moment until we checked out, the service was top notch and the staff was very kind and helpful. Having a butler made everything easier and he was more than willing to help with all requests with a smile. Considering the size of the property, everything was so well maintained and so clean. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and delicious. We would, without reservation, highly recommend this hotel for an amazing vacation and experience.

It's an iconic and incredible hotel located on the beachfront of Abu Dhabi. It's big and beautiful. It has a modest dancing fountain display outside. We did not go inside, just viewed it from the outside.

One doesn't need a stay/lunch reservation to visit the public parts of this opulent hotel and it's worth taking a look but rather expensive to dine there. Even so, worth ordering a coffee just to get a photo of one with gold leaf sprinkled on top! If throwing caution to the wind and going for afternoon tea, it is best to make a reservation in advance.

Nice place, very opulent but it is so vast, it felt very dead...no atmosphere at all which is a pity. The beach is great and the adult pool too and on the beach you will find the softest towels ever!! All the staff we encountered were lovely.
A special thanks to the very knowledgeable and courteous Milind from India, who drove us around in the buggy.
Try this place for a day or two, you will enjoy it, but I wouldn't recommend staying at the hotel unless you like things very, very quiet...

We will be staying at EP for a few days in December. Can anyone recommend a restaurant or cafe not too far away where we can have a reasonably priced breakfast?

Ingresso libero. Tieni presente che entrando senza essere un ospite dell'hotel è possibile vedere soltanto la dome (cupola) e i saloni principali. Non è possibile accedere alle altre sale, ai giardini, alla spiaggia e alle piscine.

Hola. Tengo previsto ir a Dubai y a Abu Dabi dentro de unos días. Se puede visitar este palacio por libre sin tour??? Es gratis o hay que pagar algo, y si hay que pagarlo es muy caro??

Man kann ohne ein Gast zu sein ins Hotel hineingehen und sich alles ansehen. Alles kostenlos. Wenn man einen Kaffee mit Goldblättchen trinken möchte so hat man dieses im Kaffeehaus zu bezahlen.

Is emirates palace still accessible for walk-in just for sight-seeing? I mean without any booking or reservations.??

Hi there,
No. Its only possible for you to walk in if you get a reservation. Or, if you try your luck.
But, the right way would be to book a coffee or to book a walking tour.
Hope that helps. ;)

Si può entrare senza problemi. Noi abbiamo prenotato un posto al bar per sicurezza. Ma non sarebbe stato necessario.

Мы спокойно прошли в отель и обошли его внутри в дневное время. Главное не быть в одежде, которая смутит арабов
