Rosewood Abu Dhabi hotel on Al Maryah Island is set to become the first choice for international business travellers as the capital’s new financial district takes shape around it, according to the company’s senior executives.

Speaking at the ongoing Arabian Travel Market (ATM) in Dubai, Rosewood Abu Dhabi’s managing director Luigi Romaniello and chief operating officer Symon Bridle said the distinctive five-star hotel – Rosewood Hotels & Resorts’ first in the UAE – will go from strength to strength as Abu Dhabi’s Central Business District comes to life.

“In the relatively short time since Rosewood Abu Dhabi opened, it has already gained a reputation as a sophisticated and elegant hotel providing everything the discerning traveler could possibly need,” said Romaniello.

“As Al Maryah Island continues to evolve – and particularly as we see Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) Square really take off as a thriving commercial hub – we are confident that Rosewood Abu Dhabi will quickly become the number one choice for business travellers visiting this emirate,” he said.

The guests will enjoy direct, climate-controlled access to the Abu Dhabi Global Market offices, as well as other high-end facilities such as the Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi and The Galleria luxury shopping mall.

The hotel’s stand at the event highlights some of its recent landmark achievements including the opening of Dai Pai Dong, its latest international culinary offering.

With an interior inspired by the traditional tale of the Dragon King and his nine sons, and including a tasteful array of Chinese artworks and artefacts, the authentic menu features Hong Kong street food delicacies.

The diners will be able to choose from delicious favourites such as homemade noodles, dim sum, barbecued meats or Dai Pai Dong’s signature dish of roasted duck cooked in a traditional clay pot.

The sale of 76 waterfront apartments and penthouses will bring a new urban living experience to Abu Dhabi, with residents enjoying exclusive privileges and round-the-clock services of a five-star hotel.

“This is a very exciting year for us, as we celebrate reaching several key landmarks and achievement. First there was the opening of Dai Pai Dong, which is already proving a hit with the local community and visitors,” said ,” Romaniello added. - TradeArabia News Service
