Etihad Tower

Luxury Meets The Sky

Etihad Towers is a set of five gleaming towers sitting right on Abu Dhabi’s Corniche waterfront. It’s one of the most striking landmarks in the city. Built by architects DBI Design, the complex includes a luxury hotel (Conrad), residences, offices, fine restaurants, luxury shops, and an observation deck that gives you some of the best views in town.

What You’ll See & Do At Etihad Towers

The heart of the experience is the Observation Deck at 300, located on the 74th floor of Tower 2. At about 300 metres up, you get a 360‐degree view of the Arabian Gulf, the Corniche, Emirates Palace, and much of the Abu Dhabi skyline. Let’s not forget the shopping at The Avenue at Etihad Towers. It has luxury boutiques (Hermès, Cartier, etc.), restaurants, cafés, and VIP shopping options. A fine place to combine views + luxury dining + shopping.

Also inside the towers are the Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers, with 382 rooms and suites plus about 199 serviced apartments, a private beach, pools, terrace lounges, and a spa. If you stay here, you also get easier access to many of their perks.

Best Time to Visit & Practical Info

To enjoy Etihad Towers best, head there during cooler months, from October to April. Visit in the morning or late afternoon to catch sunrise or sunset. Those golden hours give the city a soft glow. If you go around dusk, the lights begin to twinkle, giving a magical contrast with the skyline.

For entry, the Observation Deck ticket is around AED 95 per person. There are packages that include light snacks or afternoon tea, which can make the experience more special.

Nearby Attractions & Where To Stay

Etihad Towers is right on the Corniche, so you have a lot around you. You can walk or drive to the Emirates Palace Hotel, the Corniche Beach, or take a stroll along the waterfront. A short drive will take you to places like Qasr Al Watan (the Presidential Palace) and the different museums in central Abu Dhabi.

For staying nearby, the best pick is the Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers itself, with its luxury, views, and proximity to everything. Other good hotels around the Corniche or Al Bateen give you access to the area, restaurants, and easy transport to the towers.
