5–7 Star Venues
Curated luxury hotels and heritage properties
There are hotels that feel luxurious, and then there are those woven into a city’s story. A wedding at InterContinental Abu Dhabi offers exactly that. Set on a private peninsula in the prestigious Al Bateen district, this 5-star luxury hotel pairs a 300-metre beach and private marina with sweeping Arabian Gulf views. Located about 30 minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport, InterContinental Abu Dhabi by IHG feels both connected and wonderfully secluded.
One of the most distinctive aspects of an InterContinental Abu Dhabi wedding is the sense of scale. The hotel features 25 event spaces, including the Grand Ballroom spanning 1,169 sqm and accommodating up to 1,500 guests. Whether you envision an elegant ballroom reception, a waterfront cocktail evening in Marina Garden or a sunset celebration by the beach, the venues feel grand without losing their warmth.
Beyond the wedding day itself, InterContinental Abu Dhabi by IHG wedding celebrations unfold like a luxury retreat. Guests can unwind across 390 rooms and suites, enjoy acclaimed dining experiences, relax at the Bayshore Beach Club or take in panoramic views from the exclusive Club InterContinental Lounge. Backed by decades of IHG hospitality expertise, the hotel creates the kind of stay where well-travelled guests feel instantly at ease and every wedding moment feels thoughtfully considered.
