Housed in a skybridge and joining two towers, St.Regis Abu Dhabi boasts the highest suspended presidential suite in the world. The suite is suspended high up in the air at over 200 meters, and is positioned between the Nation Towers’ 48th and 49th floors.

With such a strategic elevation, the suite ensures stunning panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf and the UAE capital’s skyline. When the guests fly in their choppers and land on the helipad atop the National Towers, they are directly whisked to the Abu Dhabi Suite by a private elevator.

The suite spreads out over 1,120 square meter (11,600 square feet), it is the perfect epitome of luxury as it features cascading strands of crystals, 24-carat gold leaf accents, leather wall tiles, jewel-toned velvet upholstered walls and intricate glass mosaic patterns. The Abu Dhabi Suite also features three beautiful bedrooms, luxurious spa and movie theatre as well as a kitchen, dining room and a fully-equipped gym. The grand majlis is the suspended centerpiece that connects the suite’s two wings. It blends Arabian traditions and contemporary sophistication, with floor-to-ceiling windows, an alluring Gilded Age atmosphere and Art Deco-inspired furniture.

Guests can descend from the majlis via a staircase to the Master Suite which features an elegant lounge, en suite bathroom with freestanding bathtub, and a spacious walk-in leather-clad wardrobe.

More luxury unfolds with a fully -furnished private spa with a sauna, steam room, Jacuzzi, two treatment beds, a private library, a four-seat cinema and 14-seat dining room. To accommodate a wide range of guests, the Abu Dhabi Suite also includes three guest rooms, staff quarters, four bathrooms, a kitchen and a dedicated fitness area.
