I enjoyed my stay at Metropolitan Al Mafraq Hotel, particularly for its spacious and clean rooms along with the attentive staff. However, I encountered some issues, like limited food variety and a distance from the city center, which made getting around a bit challenging.

Rooms

The Deluxe Room City View was spacious, clean, and well-ventilated, though I wish the mattresses were softer for a better night's sleep.

While most staff were helpful and friendly, I did experience a couple of moments where the service felt rushed, especially during busy times at the bar.

The hotel's location is quiet and away from the city's hustle, but it's not the most convenient for exploring Abu Dhabi. Accessing downtown requires a long bus ride or a taxi.

My stay at the Metropolitan Al Mafraq Hotel was quite a mixed bag. While the location was peaceful and the staff was friendly, the issues with room cleanliness and noise were quite disappointing. I expected more given the price and reviews I'd read before booking.

Breakfast had good options but lacked variety. It was slightly underwhelming, and at times, I found it challenging to find items like sugar due to poor staffing.

My recent stay at the Millennium Central Mafraq Hotel was a mix of pleasant experiences and some frustrations. The friendly staff and beautiful pool area were standout features, but the noise from nearby roads and less-than-perfect service during meals left me wanting more. Overall, I enjoyed the ambiance and comfort of the rooms, but there were definitely some areas for improvement.

My stay at the Metropolitan Al Mafraq Hotel was a mixed experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, which I truly appreciated. However, the hotel's location is quite remote, making it a bit inconvenient if you want to explore central Abu Dhabi. Additionally, some facilities, like a restaurant, were closed for refurbishment, which limited my dining options during my stay. Overall, I would still recommend this hotel if you're looking for a quiet getaway, but be prepared for a few downsides. 🌟🚗
