Al Reem Island, Abu Dhabi hotel rooms at the Independent

"I really enjoyed my stay. I would however suggest investing in soft close bedroom doors as I found the noise of doors banging all through the night really annoying."

"Clean room, nice staff."

"Room and amenties and 1 of the check in staff were great"

"Excellent stay. Well-trained staff. But the dinner buffet could be better."

"Spotless hotel with staff that cannot do enough for you. Overall the food is well priced and very good. Second stay here, one of the pools has a lifeguard which is nice and shows the attention paid to the guests. All in all great experience."

"Amazing hotel, clean, chic, great location and ameneties. Loved our stay the ONLY downfall was the drinks service at breakfast and dinner was always very slow, usually we had finished our meal by the time drinks came, all the staff were polite and went out of their way to help us. Only one staff member let this down by telling us off for falling asleep in the foyer whilst waiting for our room (we had a night flight with two kids so kind of couldn't help it!) and I found that a bit unnecessary but maybe she just wanted something to do. The rooms were spacious, the pool was a great temperature and clean, life guards were checking swim nappies on babies which was reassuring, kids club was well maintained and great staff, food options were fine as we were half board we could mix it up so we didn't get bored, the eggs to order was a great concept and the morning coffees were always a great start to the day! "

"Beautiful room - incredibly comfortable bed!!! "

"Amazing stay for the weekend. All staff is soo friendly, nice food options, very good room, comfy bed, nice adult pool, amazong spa experience! I will definitely go back!! "

"Great hotel and great service. Food was superb. Beach area was a little small but lovely pools."
