Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi celebrates first birthday

The Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi Grand Canal has been operating for one year and has been named best new business hotel by Business Traveler Magazine in its 25th Best in Business Travel Awards, and listed in the top 50 new hotels in the latest issue of Condé Nast Traveller, Russia.

Since opening a year ago, the 447-key resort hotel, with ten food & beverage outlets, a health club and one of the largest outdoor pools in the region, has enhanced the luxury reputation of Abu Dhabi as a destination.

Ritz Carlton Abu Dhabi General manager Pep Lozano said: “It has been a very successful year for us and we are extremely proud of the positive response we received from Abu Dhabi community and from the global travellers.

“Through continuous support of our owning company, Abu Dhabi National Hotels, and Abu Dhabi Tourism and Culture Authority, we were able to establish the hotel as a leader in the marketplace making it the first choice for both luxury leisure and business travellers visiting the Emirate.”

In honour of its first anniversary, The Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi is extending a March weekend offer that includes an overnight stay for two guests in a Deluxe room with breakfast at Giornotte restaurant for AED 888++.

Ritz Carlton Abu Dhabi is adjacent to Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and set in landscaped gardens with its own private beach.
