The WB Abu Dhabi, Curio Collection by Hilton

Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

Virgin rating

The hotel

The world’s first Warner Bros.™ hotel is here, and it’s better than you can imagine. Think surprise character appearances, classic cartoons at the “dive in” theatre, the iconic batmobile at the entrance of the hotel…. – and that’s not all folks! Located next to the Warner Bros. World™ Abu Dhabi theme park, the world of entertainment extends into an impressive hotel that is perfect for adults as well as little ones. From the lobby right down to the individual rooms, the hotel is filled with Warner Bros. memorabilia, artwork and TV props that bring the animations to life, and what could be more exhilarating than being greeted by your favourite character whilst having breakfast at Sidekicks? The dive-in theatre at the Matinee pool allows everyone to enjoy their favourite Warner Bros. classics immersed in chilled water, a welcome relief in the summer heat. If you’re in the mood for a bit more sophistication, drop the children off at the kid’s club and head up to the Overlook – the rooftop infinity pool where you’ll enjoy panoramic views and a fantastic poolside menu of sushi, cocktails and plenty more to indulge in.

We had a fantastic stay at this wonderful hotel! The service was outstanding, and the staff was incredibly kind and attentive. GEL and Arjean were especially amazing, making our experience even better with their warm hospitality. The hotel is beautiful, well-maintained, and perfect for families. Highly recommended—we would love to return!

A beautiful hotel with a varied breakfast, good service, polite and friendly staff, and clean rooms. The reception/lobby area is very nicely decorated. Cartoon characters were present everywhere, creating a fun and happy atmosphere for children. Pros: Lovely hotel ambiance Great breakfast selection Clean rooms and polite staff Cons: The mattresses were very firm, which didn’t suit us, making it difficult to rest well. The rooftop pool is adults-only, which seems a bit odd given that the hotel primarily caters to families with children. The coffee at the lobby café needs significant improvement. We ordered a flat white, but it was extremely bitter, and the milk wasn’t frothed properly. Although they have professional equipment, the staff should be given the opportunity by the hotel to attend a barista course. Making good coffee isn’t for everyone, and as big coffee lovers, we know what we’re talking about. We truly value starting the day with a high-quality cup, no matter the fee. Unfortunately, during the last two nights of our stay, we had the bad luck of being next to families with extremely noisy children. They were shouting in the hallways, slamming doors, and making noise in their rooms, even late at night (11:00 PM) and early in the morning (8:00 AM). There was no parental supervision or control over the situation, but we understand that this doesn’t depend on the hotel and is more about the parents’ education. Read less

It is one of the unforgettable dinner! It is my sister’s 50th birthday but we didn’t prepare much so we decided to have simple dinner but in a special restaurant, and we didn’t go wrong, our late request for birthday cake was accommodated by the WB Hotel Director’s Club Team, special thanks to Clementine for making this happen! The food is great!
