Aloft Abu Dhabi
High design in the Arabian Desert
Radiating whimsical merriment in each of its cleverly designed pores, Aloft is a refreshing new entrant to the Abu Dhabi hotel scene. From the Splash! outdoor rooftop pool and the loft inspired rooms and suites, to the six resident bars and restaurants, Aloft is an exercise in savvy design. Ideally located in the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Center (ADNEC), the largest exhibition center in the Arabian Gulf, Aloft is the perfect retreat after a meeting and seminar-filled day. Enjoy a cocktail on the rooftop bar, Relax@12, or lounge around in the Splash! Garden. Take advantage of the free Wi-Fi in the re:mix Lounge, or attend to your workout in the re:charge Gym. Whatever you fancy during your stay at Aloft, rest assured that a bit of old-fashioned fun will be part of the equation.
Maї Café
Having established itself as Abu Dhabi’s hippest new chill out spot, Maї Café can be found on the rooftop of the trendy Aloft Abu Dhabi. Overlooking the hotel’s tranquil pool and roof gardens, during the day the café menu provides the laid-back clientele with a wide selection of delicious Arabic mezze, as well as healthy options like salads and sandwiches, and classic mains such as fish and chips or tandoori prawns. But it is when darkness falls that Maї really comes into its own as a stylish lounge bar. Take your place with the beautiful crowd and sink back into beanbags and the softest sofas as the eclectic line-up of resident and guest DJs take to the decks.
