Rosewood Opens its First Hotel in UAE

Rosewood Abu Dhabi, the first Rosewood hotel in the UAE, opens today (1 May 2013).

The 189-room hotel is located at the core of the new Central Business District (CBD) between the Sowwah Square development and Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi.

The Galleria, a new retail and dining destination with direct access to the hotel, is set to open on the Island in August. Downtown Abu Dhabi, leisure facilities and the airport are also easily accessible from Al Maryah Island.

“Rosewood Abu Dhabi is a perfect choice for travellers coming to the capital on business or pleasure,” said Luigi Romaniello, Rosewood Abu Dhabi’s managing director, who has been with Rosewood Hotels & Resorts for more than 13 years. “Travellers today are looking for more than a bed and breakfast; they require a destination which offers both a comforting retreat from the day, but also a vibrant energy and variety of amenities. Rosewood Abu Dhabi will provide a luxury lifestyle experience currently unmatched in the capital.”

Rosewood Abu Dhabi features nine signature restaurants and lounges; eight fully equipped conference and event spaces including a ballroom which will accommodate up to 1,000 guests; pool and gym facilities and Sense, a Rosewood Spa.
