#GLOSSTRAVELS - EID GETAWAY WITH MARRIOTT DOWNTOWN ABU DHABI

Hello life-lovers

This Eid I had the opportunity to celebrate the auspicious occasion with Marriott Downtown in Abu Dhabi. The Marriott Downtown is luxury 5-star hotel that part of the Marriott Hotels group and is situated in the heart of Abu Dhabi. This was handy for me as it’s right next to the Abu Dhabi bus station and Al Wahda mall.



Check-in was a breeze.The hotel has got everything you need when you’re staying in a city like Singapore; a nice pool for relaxing and cooling off from the city heat, well-equipped gym, luxurious spa and selection of restaurants to eat in. The thing that I liked the most about the room was the bed. Honestly speaking, it was probably the most comfortable bed that I had slept on in the last month or so. I’m always particular with the pillows. I’m not one to use a layer of these when I sleep so it’s important to me that the one that I put on my head is just fluffy enough and Marriott’s pillows certainly do not disappoint in this aspect. But in case one needs extras, there’s a couple stored in the cabinets. Disposable slippers were also provided.




The mini bar comes stocked with all your favorites. They also provide tea and coffee making facilities. They also give you plenty of free water bottles which are an absolute necessity!I just loved the bathtub! So modern. It was huge as well, perfect for a long soak. Their shower features a giant rainshower head.




My room stay came with breakfast buffet. Priced at 200++ AED per head, it is probably one of the best hotel breakfast buffet in town. For the price, the food was of good quality. They had fresh fruit juices which was a pleasant surprise as some 4 or 5 star hotels don’t even offer these. Aside from these, other items that one would expect to have for the first meal of the day – such as eggs, cereals, sausages and salads – are also available.







Saray Spa is quite large and has many treatment rooms. When you arrive, you are offered a welcome drink. The treatment consisted of coffee scrub , mud wrap and facial as a part of the getaway package. Priced at 500+ AED its actually a catch. The staff were true professionals and really showed consideration to every aspect of the process. They make sure that you get exactly what you need and don’t leave you ever feeling anything less than super comfortable. The summary of the treatment would be magical and magnificent. I would highly recommend that you get a massage at the Saray Spa. The rooftop pool with the view of Abu Dhabi is to die for.





It was a wonderful staycation indeed. Cant wait to go back again.

Much love!!
