W Abu Dhabi - Yas Island

I had an absolutely wonderful stay! The staff were incredibly kind and professional, the cleanliness was top-notch, and the room was spacious and spotless. What truly impressed me was how thoughtful they were when it came to my pet cat — we came back to find the room fully set up with everything he needed without even asking. There was a cat tree, litter box, a cozy bed, cat food, and even food bowls ready for him. I really appreciated this level of care and attention to detail. It made the stay feel even more special. Highly recommended!

Great hotel. Thank you to Grace for an amazing welcome and her manager for the upgrade. The rooms were spacious. Breakfast is nice with two locations to choose from. Staff were friendly with smiling faces across. All in all, the 5 night stay was great. The kids loved it.

I spent a week at W Abu Dhabi – Yas Island this March, and it was an unforgettable experience overall. The hotel’s design is striking and modern, creating a unique and vibrant atmosphere from the moment you arrive. The real highlight for me, however, was the spectacular view of the Formula 1 race track—watching cars zip by from the comfort of the balcony was something truly special, even during non-race events and practice sessions. Breakfast was exceptional—easily one of the best I’ve had at any hotel. There was a wide variety of options, from freshly baked pastries to international dishes, healthy choices, and a fantastic live cooking station. It was a great way to start each day. The rooms were stylish, clean, and very comfortable, though they are starting to show some signs of wear and tear in certain areas. It’s nothing major, but a few corners could use some refreshing to match the otherwise upscale vibe of the hotel. If I had to point out one area for improvement, it would be the service, which at times felt a bit inconsistent. While most staff were friendly, there were moments when requests took longer than expected or felt less attentive than you'd hope from a five-star property. All in all, W Abu Dhabi – Yas Island is a fantastic choice—especially for motorsport fans or anyone looking for a bold and luxurious stay in Abu Dhabi. I’d gladly return!

We had a 6 night stay here. The hotel is only a 10-15 minute taxi ride from the airport. The staff are very attentive, friendly, and helpful. The rooms are quite large and very comfortable. Soft pillows, mattress just the right amount of firmness, cold air con, decent water pressure. They have a very reasonable happy hour too. Separate adults and family/kids swimming pools as well. Oh and the hotel is above an F1 track, which is very cool. The only thing that we did not care for was the breakfast buffet. It’s average at best, nothing to write home about. Have had worse, have had better. The Yas express bus picks you up right by the entrance to take you to all the theme parks and Yas Mall free of charge. Very convenient. We would for sure stay here again on any future trips. Very good price point for 5 star amenities and 5 star service.

I had an amazing stay at the W Abu Dhabi – Yas Island! The hotel is modern and stylish, with stunning views of the Yas Marina Circuit. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the staff was friendly and professional, making me feel very welcome. I especially enjoyed the rooftop pool and the AWAY Spa — perfect for relaxing after a busy day. The location is great too, close to Ferrari World and Yas Waterworld. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Abu Dhabi!

My overall review of W Abu Dhabi – Yas Island is excellent. Even with just a one-night stay, the hotel delivers a standout experience that blends bold design, luxury comfort, and vibrant energy. The architecture is striking, especially with its location straddling the Yas Marina Circuit, and the interiors reflect a playful yet upscale vibe that’s true to the W brand. My room was spotless and stylish, with a view that made the stay feel special. Staff were warm and attentive, and the breakfast buffet was generous and diverse. Whether you’re into motorsports, nightlife, or just want a unique luxury escape, this hotel makes a strong impression in every category.

W has become a regular escape for our family, and each stay continues to exceed expectations. The hotel’s design is vibrant and modern, with a bold, artistic flair that sets it apart. Its prime location on Yas Island puts you right in the heart of the action, with beautiful views of the marina and racetrack. The facilities are always immaculate; from the poolside atmosphere to the fitness center and dining venues, everything is thoughtfully designed for both relaxation and energy. However, at times, especially during events or weekends, the hotel can get a bit lively and loud. On our recent visit, we faced an unexpected situation, and Mr. Murat, the duty manager, handled it with the utmost professionalism and care. His calm, respectful, and solution-focused approach reminded us why we keep coming back. He is the kind of leader every hotel needs; attentive, composed, and genuinely committed to guest satisfaction. We’re grateful for another memorable stay and look forward to many more.

The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful — luxurious interiors, great location, and well-appointed rooms. On the surface, it lives up to the expectations of a five-star property. But unfortunately, the service didn’t match the standard. Both check-in and check-out were frustratingly slow. During check-out, we waited over 30 minutes for someone to collect our luggage, and despite repeated follow-ups, no one showed up. Since we were getting late, we finally had to carry our luggage ourselves, which completely defeated the purpose of staying at a premium hotel. A property this good deserves better management. With improved staff responsiveness and guest support, the experience could have been exceptional. Until then, be prepared to handle things yourself.
