Since opening its doors in 2016, Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi has gone from strength to strength, establishing itself as a premier choice for business travellers and discerning guests seeking an elevated experience in the Emirati capital. Read on to discover what makes Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi at Al Maryah Island the city’s premier destination.
Acclaimed Accommodations
Four Seasons Abu Dhabi benefits from the brand’s six decades of hospitality expertise, positioning it ahead of the curve from the moment it opened in May 2016. Like all of its other branches, the hotel offers some of the most impressive suites for its upscale clientele, and while all rooms provide a certain level of service, there are a couple of exceptional standouts.
The Premier Suite unfolds across 1,593 sq. ft, offering outstanding city and ocean views. Notable for its voluminous expanses, the suite offers a living and dining space served by a kitchen, in addition to a sanctuary-like bedroom. The space boasts high-end materials while also offering twice-daily housekeeping services, powered curtains and spacious, brightly-lit closets with mirrors.
The Presidential Suite is set across 1,884 sq.ft and provides guests with stylish living and dining rooms, in addition to ivory-faced furnishings and the same impeccable views as the Premier Suite. Furthermore, the room boasts a deluxe marble bathroom and an extra guest bathroom for added convenience.
The piece de resistance, however, is undeniably the Royal Suite, which provides 2,884 sq.ft of vast expanse across two floors for its discerning guests. The space features unobstructed views of the city, in addition to exquisite fixtures and fittings such as crystal chandeliers, hand-painted silks, high-end marbles and rich hardwood flooring. Beautifully illuminated courtesy of floor-to-ceiling windows, this alluring suite is also notable for its double-height spaces, which add to the elegance.
A Wealth of Wellness
The hotel offers a range of wellness experiences, all designed to replenish and rejuvenate guests. The Pearl Spa and Wellness offers a wide array of treatments, from massages and body therapies to facials and exclusive rituals – one of the highlights being the lavish Pearl Spa Experience, a two-and-a-half hour indulgence designed to completely relax both body and mind. The Gold Quartz Healing Therapy and the Tension Relief Massage stand as further elevated options for those looking for a morning or afternoon of alleviated stress relief.
Guests can also take advantage of the property’s upscale spa facilities, such as heated loungers, a cutting-edge vitality pool with hydro jets, an outstanding sauna and steam room and an upscale relaxation lounge.
Access to separate men's and women's fitness centres offers state-of-the-art equipment in sophisticated surroundings, with exceptional views of Al Maryah Island and beyond, thanks to wall-to-wall windows which overlook the cerulean expanses of the Arabian Gulf.

Delectable Dining
The elevated level of sophistication found throughout the Four Seasons Hotel extends seamlessly to the restaurants housed within the development.
Remarkably, the property is home to no fewer than four Michelin-recommended restaurants – one of which, 99 Sushi Bar, has previously held the coveted distinction of one Michelin star. Butcher & Still delights diners with an exceptional selection of premium meat cuts, while Coya showcases the vibrant flavours of Peru through standout dishes such as its signature ceviche, the country’s celebrated national dish. Meanwhile, Café Milano, the sophisticated sister to the acclaimed Washington D.C. original, serves an array of authentic Italian fare, distinguished by its handcrafted pastas and refined presentation.
Four Seasons presents further exquisite options, such as the elegant Crust, one of the city’s most talked about brunch locations – also acclaimed for its exceptional breakfast menu. Al Meylas boasts coffee, pastries, small plates and Afternoon Tea, and Eclipse Terrace Lounge is the ideal place to enjoy a poolside cocktail or simply a light bite post-swim.
Of course, it is entirely possible to indulge in the comfort of your own room, thanks to the hotel’s expansive in-room dining menu – the ideal option for those who have just touched down after a long-haul flight.
