Returning to the Danat Al Ain Resort, formerly known as the Intercontinental Hotel Al Ain, felt like a nostalgic journey for me. Having grown up spending considerable time in this hotel, it was heartwarming to see the familiar building, now beautifully upgraded while still retaining its charm. The staff at the resort were exceptionally friendly, making my stay feel more like a homecoming. Their welcoming and attentive service truly enhanced my experience, reminding me of the many reasons I cherish this place. A standout during my stay was the Arabesque restaurant. The culinary offerings were superb, combining traditional flavors with a modern twist – a perfect representation of the resort’s blend of heritage and contemporary elegance. I highly recommend Danat Al Ain Resort for anyone visiting Al Ain. Whether you're returning like me or discovering its delights for the first time, the resort offers a unique and memorable experience, steeped in warmth and luxury.

Do yourself a favor, stay somewhere else.
The hotel is old and the rooms are outdated. The furniture is worn. The walls are very thin. We have stayed here twice and had three different rooms, each was very loud. We re-booked the hotel because it had a great rate, but we regretted it. The staff was professional, but they don't have much to work with.

I think this hotel is better for families. I was traveling alone and there was constant noise. Children running and yelling in the lobby, in the elevators and in the hallways. The parents weren’t much better. Talking loudly in the hallway early mornings and late evenings. Over all my room just looked old. It was clean, but it definitely needs an update, especially considering the other hotels around Al Ain. I wish I had stayed somewhere else. I Don’t recommend this hotel if you’re alone or want some peace. Probably great for families though.
