Our second time there
Last time we really enjoyed our stay at Novel. Unfortunately this time we paid more and didn't get that nice room. Anyway, the very helpful and proactive staff made our stay excellent, thank you for that! Next time also here. Hopefully in a better (renovated) room ;) The room was clean but it was impossible to turn off the AC. The hotel is close to WTC Shopping Mall and the official taxi from the airport costs around 95 AED. The way back is cheaper (-25 AED for the airport ride). Stayed in: Standard Room Stay length: 2 night(s)

We recently stayed at the Novel Hotel on a 3 day stopover and enjoyed our stay. This hotel is located in a fabulous location where there is access to plenty of shops & restaurants - all within walking distance. The staff were all so lovely and caring to us. Appreciate their excellent service.

Wonderful
Good: Close to several busstops. To the mosque is very far, you have to buy a transportation card. Travel by bus is not expensive.

In need of big renovation
I got the hotel assigned by Etihad taking the opportunity of a stopover in Abu Dhabi on my way back to Europe. The hotel is well situated in the center of Abu Dhabi, and the staff is very nice. It is in need of renovation work, everything looks pretty old. The room we received was quite big, the bed was however quite small, and the worst thing about it was that the room was quite smelly (was like a former smoking room or actually a smoking room, even if we requested a non-smoking room). But since we arrived quite late, we basically stayed in the room (it was for one night only). The furniture, as well as the carpet were pretty old and worn out, but the room and bathroom were clean. Breakfast was good. I would have given a lower rating, however my score is based also on the kindness of the staff as well as the fact that we got a very good offer for a late check out, since our flight was leaving in the middle of the night. Overall, next time I would choose a different hotel.

Defintely the best, affordable p;lace to stay in Abu Dhabi
Good: This hotel is amazing. It felt like a 5-star. From the time we arrived the staff were onboard to help with luggae, arranged early book-n. The room was massive, comfortable, clean and well stocked with bottled water and snacks. Breakfast buffet had a different, wide variety every day. Bus stops were within a short walk. Couldn't ask for more.
Bad: Nothing.
