Discover The Ritz Carlton Abu Dhabi Grand Canal

In central Abu Dhabi, with views over one of the city’s foremost architectural sights - the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque – the opulent Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi Grand Canal offers the perfect five-star escape from its delightful waterfront setting. It’s the ideal location for exploring city sights as well as relaxing at the hotel’s many resort-style facilities including the sumptuous beachfront spa.

With a timeless Venetian-inspired design, expect marble floors, chandeliers, palatial grounds, water features and manicured gardens. All rooms and suites have views of either the gardens, pool or Grand Canal as well as sunrises over Al Maqta Creek or illuminating sunsets over the Grand Mosque. Enjoy global cuisine at the hotel’s 8 restaurants, from Arabic and Asian to seafood and steak. Take an Abra (water taxi) across the creek to Qaryat Al Beri and capture the atmosphere of a traditional souk, head to the Louvre Abu Dhabi, amble along the Corniche, or head to Yas Island for theme parks including Ferrari World.
