Great and comfortable seats, nice (but small) praying area with place for doing ablution. Staff was awesome and very very helpful. Food taste was also great (though choices were a bit limited). Only reason given 4 stars is, Emirates business lounge in much better, has a bigger variety of food, drinks, etc etc
Lovely lounge. First class lounge is closed. So a separate area is roped off for passengers with first class lounge access. An a la carte menu is available. Only one food station is open and staff is available to serve you your choice. The food quality is very good. The waiter confirmed that 95% of staff have been vaccinated against COVID-19. Staff very friendly and attentive. The kids play area is open, but all toys and furniture has been removed. There is nothing inside except a TV.
Good lounge. Premium drinks. Food not bad. Open 24 hours!
As usual one of the best lounges especially their e socks perfect for conference calls etc... food is good and service is awesome.
Tone down from the pre-Covid-19, still a very comfortable point to relax and wait.
Lovely place, lovely staff. Personally think the food options could be better but I was only there during breakfast. Even so, delicious. Thank you
Great wine (aged Bordeaux 2007 the day I was there!), awesome showers and lots of food options with clean and comfy seating. Super fun.
Good food. Nice prompt service
Excellent place to relax and re energize. This lounge has all the services from shower to spa with refreshing drink and a wonderful spread of the buffet to settle your hunger. Staffs are cordial and pleasant in handling passengers. Only thing missing is a bed that you can get some sleep. Usually as an alternative you can use the sofas to have it as a bed. Wonderful time I had and looking forward to come back again. Great job and thank you!
Facility is extremely good and modern and well designed, but as always, Etihad is always hiring the wrong people in the wrong places ; I couldnt believe how the business class lounges staff were answering my questions and inquiries (in a hurry and not free for me)
Lounge is 5 stars but reception staff is 0 star. I had an overnight connecting flight in Abu Dhabi & I decided to use the lounge for a sleep it is quite & comfy but the receptionist lady came & wake me up to swipe my card. I was furious as she could have waited till I wake & then ask for that. Pretty nice place but rude staff.
Great staffs! Good food! Very clean and regularly disinfection of the tables and chairs and wcs.
Flew Etihad after almost 10 years. Service was excellent. Facilities also in abundance. What they can improve upon is the choice of the food and wine.Was there at breakfast time. I think, due to COVID all the food comes packed in boxes. The food itself was okay but the choice was very limited : 3 things. No Indian stuff for example. Even the toast wasn’t warm enough.On the wine front- in red: only 2. Had one of them. Which was good, but again a choice of two is not what to expect at a business class lounge.
Etihad First Class Lounge is fantastic. Only first class or frequent travellers with adequate status can enter, so the service and ambience is fantastic. This lounge has an a la carte menu and full bar service. There are many comfortable spaces to relax, finish some work or watch television. There is a spa inside this lounge, so if you need a massage, you can get it (for a nominal price I would assume)
Awful ..too crowded ...very limited food choice..all hot Indian spice food no light cold sandwiches...at 2am spicy Indian curry and rice is notto most peoples taste... the worst lounge in the Gulf area that I have experienced
Ive always enjoyed my experiences at the Etihad Business Class lounge but would like to highlight some points for those who want to make the most of their time.They offer a complimentary 15 minutes wort massage (you need to book/reserve your slot) so you can enjoy it before your flight. This can be done as soon as you enter the lounge to avoid any inconveniences.The food taste has faced a downfall. i used to love their buffet but unfortunately it just tastes bland and not rich in flavor like it used to be.They have shower facilities which should be availed! Always ask if hot water is available as I did face an inconvenience once in which I had to shower with cold water and the staff werent aware or ready to facilitate me.
Bad experience when I bid for a Business upgrade it was successful, when I check in Etihad attendant told me to pick up my business class boarding pass in Etihad business lounge. When I reach the business lounge, Chian Etihad attendant told me that no business upgrade was available!!! What kind of service is this! Please note that I am a Etihad gold member
Really nice safe set up...open bar, showers, wifi and lots of comfy seating
Always a pleasure to stop and relax before a long flight. Food and service is second to none.
The lounge very nice and well organized. Love the luxurious chair and the spread seating area. The food selection is another world. You will love what they offeringThere are lets of options and choices you can make. So teasty and the coffee and the drinks very nice here .. highly recommended ..definitely you will enjoy and will have fun..
Social distancing was well maintained, without any disturbance in services.
Large but relaxing lounge with all the facilities you need. Well staffed and cautious preparation in view of cleanliness, distancing required in those challenging times. Friendly attentive personnel as you normally expect with Etihad. Always glad to come back
Good service and large space , a nice place to chill before your flight
Friendly and helpful staff. Delicious food. Perfect place.
It has great facilities but no sleeping area for long layovers
Outstanding service and maintaining quality in these tough times. Well done Etihad.
Wonderful experience! During this pandemic time, food was served in properly packed disposables. Wifi available. Staff were very friendly & helpful. Highly recommended!
Good lounge but too expensive for what it is. Very friendly and helpful staff. The business centre is rubbish. No power outlets on the few tables with office chairs which are occupied by iMacs. One section of the business centre is full of booths with TVs. Who needs that? Food quality and selection is okay but lacking on the salad side, e.g. not enough options to create a proper salad like corn, chickpeas; no deep large bowls but only flat plates & small bowls. Besides the cold food no choice for vegans in the hot food section. Wouldnt go again. Unfortunately, no other options in terminal 3 for economy and business class passengers.
Very comfortable all staffs are very nice and accomodating
Lounge space is well organised with easy access to food and drinks. Service by the staff is excellent. Food spread is reasonably good to cater both International and Arab world customers. Toilets, although are in 2 locations within the lounge, they are insufficient and we could always find pax waiting for 5 to 15 mins to avail the facility although the Lounge was only at 50% of its capacity.
Very accommodating crew. I am well served. Overall, great experience.
Food was delicious, great way to relax before your flight.
We paid for a 6 hour lounge access for an overnight layover and it was well worth the money. The staff were very welcoming and helpful, Tom in particular was an outstanding host and made our visit much more enjoyable. The shower facilities were good with comfortable couches to sleep on. The meals are all packaged due to Covid but the selection was good.
Its the state of the world. Hardly anyone here, so whatever they have is easy to get. Food is tasty service great. The one downside is the unavailability of electrical outlets to charge your phone, tablet, or computer.
Not up to the required standard, there was not much choice in food selection, even in beers there just had Heineken thats it.
Loved It, But Due To Covid-19, Theyre Taking Extra Safety Measures Which Is Impressive. You Can Still Get Foods But Limited.
Hygiene can be better. Facilities are good. Service are above average.
The place is bigger and cozier than its pre-COVID days.
Really good selection of food and service. Comfortable and clean.
Always love Etihad, my favorite Airline. No need further explanation...😊👍
Outstanding airport lounge to relax and have something to eat before your journey. Multiple seating areas to choose from. Large comfortable leather chairs to relax, talk and drink a vast range of hot or cold beverages. Several quieter areas to read or work in. Two buffet areas, one area for main meals and hot food, the other sandwiches and desserts. Staff very polite, friendly and regularly check if you need anything. A Spa is available at the end of the lounge with a range of treatments starting from 100 dirham. WiFi is easy to access and a strong signal. Overall an excellent lounge and would recommend getting to the airport early to make the most of all the facilities.
Nice Lounge with great service. Theres 3-4 buffet locations with good quality food, and plenty of seating with a nice ambience. The best part is the service. The kids area is very nice and this is the only lounge ive seen where there are people to take care of your kids in the kids area while you freshen up and eat.
Very nice ambience, good food and extremely friendly service
Nice place with a significant selection of food and beverages. Clean restrooms and showers help. A hospitable staff also add a nice touch.
After my connecting flight was cancelled TWICE!!! Etihad showed grace and amazing hospitality by offering to pay for costs I had to cover due to the inconvenience. When I finally arrived in Abu Dhabi, I was greeted warmly and well taken care of when I entered the lounge. The staff were absolutely amazing. I have other words but this is the most appropriate one! Guests are spoiled for choice in this beautifully decorated and well managed lounge.
Loxwood, excellent facilities including the prayer room
Its average, nothing special, plenty room to sit around but no space to have nap if its Long stay
So there I was overseas working and I break my leg. International SOS steps in like an guardian angel and basically said sit down and relax we got you Mr. Albertson. Long story short I flew home after the operation non stop business class on Etihad Airlines. The Etihad lounge in Abu Dhabi is the cleanest airport lounge Ive ever been in and the food was amazing. The staff took care of me like I was a long list uncle.
Buisness Lounge. Very good Location
Good and well run large hub lounge, plenty of choice and a lot of alert staff
Big place to coffee your day before the journey, good variety of food and nice places to wait your flight times
This is much more better than the previous BC Lounge... Make sure you make sometime for Spa and shaving... try thier lemon mint juice it is delicious and refreshing
Good service, nice sitting area 👍
Nice ambience. Decent food. Has shower facility
Not badQuiet simple and 2 kinds of vin.Thi salads so good.
Great lounge, a lot of space, good variety of food and drinks.
Excellent combination of food and drinks along with comfortable seating arrangement and courteous staff
Breakfast was good but wish they had reclining chairs as too many people were sleeping on the sofas!
A relaxing experience before your flight. Staff are good and helpful and the lounge is comfortable and clean
Cozy & comfort place to wait boarding time...
Huge clean and loads of helpers every where also there is a spa 😁
Because of the delay we were upgraded to the lounge and given access for 5 hours, staff was very nice and helpful the place helped me relax and prepare for my interview.
Tho a little too packed, it was very the best it can be. Etihad does lounges and services well. The staff as friendly as they can be & the lounge is clean & organized. The food is perfect just before you board your flight. Really want to see the first class lounge, but for now the buissness one will do..
Its comfortable, relexing and practical if one has long flights.
Excellent food and beverages.Most important great coffee
Well managed friendly staff, I always enjoy Etihad Business Class Lounge
Excellent place to rest and lunch during the trip.
Perfect place for relaxing. The staffs are very accommodating and hospitable. Very clean place and they are sanitizing the lounge from time to time.
This place needs renuation big time. Furniture is old now. For long waiting passengers there is no recliner at all.
Its really good and decent and the staff is really kind too.
