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.

Hôtel agréable

J'ai beaucoup apprécié cet hôtel, chambres confortables et bonnes installations. Dommage que beaucoup de clients sont très mal éduqués et laissent leurs rester de repas par terre au bord de la piscine par exemple... Mais l'hôtel en lui-même est génial et le personnel est très agréable et serviable

Avslappning o firande

Vi hade ett trevligt dygn på Danat. Rummet var ganska stort och med en balkong. Dock ganska osköna stolar så man kunde inte sitta så länge o njuta. Rummet skulle behövas förnyas/renoveras lite. Speciellt toaletten. Maten var väldigt god! Poolområdet lugnt o bra bara det att det fanns en hel del små minimyror som bet en så det gjorde ont. Skulle vara bra att lägga ut nåt medel o bli kvitt myrorna. Det pågick ett bröllop så väldigt hög musik spelades till kring 04 vilket gjorde det svårt att somna. Vi blev överraskade med en god tårta då min sambo skulle fylla år. Mycket trevligt! Thank you Danat for our stay and the tasty cake!

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The hotel is old and the rooms are outdated.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.
