The luxurious hotel complex of Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental can be found in the center of Abu Dhabi, at the end of the Cornische Road. This hotel is the most luxurious hotel in all of Abu Dhabi and definitely worth a visit. The hotel is partially open to the public, unlike many other luxury hotels of this caliber. It is recommended to visit the hotel just before sunset, so that you can first enjoy the splendor in the daylight and after sunset enjoy the fountains and domes, which are all beautifully illuminated.
At 3 billion dollars, the Emirates Palace hotel is rumored to be one of the most expensive hotels ever in terms of construction costs. You quickly believe that when you come face to face with this enormous building. The hotel was built like an Arabic palace and on its 100 hectares of private land there are beautiful green gardens, enormous fountains, swimming pools, several helicopter platforms and a 1.3 km long sandy beach.
The most luxurious hotel in Abu Dhabi
The hotel, which opened in 2005, has 114 domes, including the impressive 72-meter-high central dome. The hotel’s ceilings are lavishly decorated with no fewer than 1,002 chandeliers, the largest of which weighs 2.500 kilograms. Only the best and most luxurious materials have been used in the interior, which ensures a high “bling-bling content”. You will find large amounts of gold, marble, crystal and mosaics. There are two handmade carpets that weigh more than 1000 kilograms each and an enormous collection of antiques that can be admired in the central corridors. If you are interested in these antique items, many of the items are for sale, but keep in mind sky-high prices.
