My best mate lives there, not been over yet but he makes out that its reasonable. The flighrs are not bad around about ?500 return depending on demand obviously.

Very enlightened bunch they are over there

 

Dubai Television refuse to broadcast The Flintstones as they don't think the locals get the humour

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But we all know for a fact that the people in Abu Dhabi Do

 

:thumbsup:

 

That's not olden, it's golden!

Nice place, its certainl on the up, it has a bit more class than Dubai.

 

If you have the cash stay at Emirates Palace

Went last year doing a few days work out there.

 

Hotel was great - if expensive - around ?5 for a pint. Stayed at the Hilton Beach Club on the Corniche.

 

Spent most of the 5 days there slaving away - was going the big mall on the Friday morning (holy day), but that is closed until 3pm, when we were back in work.

 

Ate 'local' a couple of times - good food and good value. Smokers paradise - around ?5 for 200.

 

Don't get a parking ticket - that was the system I was working on - can cost up to ?1000!

 

Locals, well the wardens we met, were really friendly and always said hello, and tried a conversation.

 

Too much time spent working, but what I saw and experienced, I enjoyed

 

HTH

If you like tacky and overpriced hotels, then stay at Emirates Palace
