Southern Sun Abu Dhabi, a luxury hotel in the UAE emirate, is offering a complimentary selfie-stick borrowing facility at the front desk for guests staying at the hotel to capture memories of their best moments on property and around Abu Dhabi.

 “More and more guests find it important to record experiences like memorable dinners and great panoramas on social media to share with friends and family back home,” said Pierre Delfau, general manager of Southern Sun Abu Dhabi. “We thought that giving guests access to a selfie stick would mean they have one less thing to pack and they can still capture some great images of themselves all across the city.  We’re actively encouraging guests using our selfie sticks to include the hashtag #inabudhabi, launched by Abu Dhabi Tourism and Culture Authority, when visiting the numerous tourist attractions and historic landmarks in the capital and this will also help spread the word internationally about everything the emirate has to offer.”

“Our team is constantly thinking of ways to enhance our guests’ stay. A thoughtful added-value service such as making selfie sticks available is just one of the reasons why we are consistently ranked amongst the top three hotels in the capital on Trip Advisor,” he said.

The hotel is also inviting guests to snap a selfie with a member of staff that has made a real difference to their stay in a drive to celebrate the efforts of all those who contribute to the warm and welcoming experience that has seen Southern Sun Abu Dhabi rapidly become one of the most popular hotels in the capital.

Southern Sun Abu Dhabi will be running a competition open to all guests who use the selfie sticks. Guests can simply post their images on Instagram or Facebook with the hashtags #southernsunselfie and #inabudhabi to enter and stand the chance to win various prizes, from brunches to dinners and stays. The best image each month will be selected by Southern Sun and announced on the hotel’s social platforms. – TradeArabia News Service
