Howard Johnson is located in the commercial centre of Abudhabi. A handful of supermarkets and few restaurants are located around the hotel. There are a couple of Indian restaurants also within walk-able distance. The front office staff are not so friendly. One will always get a cold response in the reception. However, the room service is ok. The rooms are... More

I recently stayed in this hotel and would like to share my experiances. The room service is OK, Hotel facilities are pathitic, Food is worst. Value for your money is spent is not justified. Too much of noise due to the night club located in the same building. More

Bad place to stay. Rooms are cheap but the entire hotel smells of cigarette smoke . Poor airconditioning , impersonal staff and disturbance due to late night activity ( you can hear music thumping in your rooms) in the dance clubs which seem to be fronts for pick-up joints .No parking space .Could be avoided.

Great location – a less expensive hotel amongst the company of 5 star hotels in the area Though the rooms in this hotel are very spacious and have a stunning view (if you have the corniche side view on higher floors), the service and hospitality, unfortunately, is very lacking. The food is less than average (though the restaurant manager deserves... More

the hotel was nothing but a whorehouse with prostitutes hanging around everywhere. they service their clients in the disco which is so loud you can hear it in most rooms, you see them going to all the rooms and it is most definitely not a place to take your wife or your family. DISGUSTING More
