September 25, 20178 yr Got some good prices for flights and Hilton hotel for a week. Wondering what the eating out and bars situation is like?

March 19, 20188 yr Get The Entertainer Abu Dhabi and select the Cheers add on so you will get 3 vouchers for 2-4-1 in each bar. (Applies to a bottle of wine in many) As mentioned, the bars / clubs are within resorts. Not been back since 2009, then it certainly didn't have the resorts and luxury that Dubai had (and don't imagine it kept up either), however that was before the corniche and Yas Island were finished. Usually go to Dubai once a year. There are places like Souk al Bahar, Pier 7 and Souk Madinat that have a few bars and you will generally have a lot more choice. That said, neither place or any Islamic country is generally the best place for a drinking trip. You will do well to focus your sessions on Friday and Saturday where you can get 4 hours unlimited drinking from £50-£120 depending on the luxury and if you choose right with the entertainer voucher you'll get it 2-4-1 as well.
March 19, 20188 yr A couple other things. You'll generally get cheaper flights to Dubai via Emirates than Abu Dhabi via Etihad. The Hilton in the Middle East are more business traveller oriented than holiday type, so you should consider that there might be a lot better value by shopping around as most of the decent class hotels can't be told apart.
March 20, 20188 yr If you fly into Dubai get down to The George and Dragon in Bur Dubai........ Oldest and cheapest pub in town, about 4 quid for a pint of Becks, which in this town is practically giving it away!
