Designed with Generation Y’s travel tendencies in mind, Experiential Events by The Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi, Grand Canal are weekly workshops hosted by the hotel’s cultural ambassadors at the executive Club Lounge. Catering to the millennial travellers’ quest for authentic and culturally relevant experiences, the first in a series of workshops will showcase traditional regional practices such as preparing spiced Arabic coffee or centuries-old skincare and beauty routines of Arabia.
Taking notice of the preferences of the tech-savvy millennials – defined as those born between the early 1980s and the early 2000s – the Club Lounge offers flexible working areas, instant Internet connectivity as well as pre-arrival registration and mobile check-out via The Ritz-Carlton Mobile App. The app’s GPS technology also allows the application to recognize when a guest has arrived at a Ritz-Carlton and can provide location specific advice, information and even exclusive offers. With the tap of the finger, guests can learn more about local area culture and customs, concierge tips and even the hotel’s art collection. The App also integrates The Ritz-Carlton World Concierge global recommendations from Four Square, the social media platform.
Offering a panoramic view of Al Maqta’a creek from its wrap-around glass walls, the Club Lounge offers an intimately private setting for guests of The Ritz-Carlton Club Level. In addition to an elevated level of service, guests receive dedicated concierge assistance at all hours and continuous culinary offerings throughout the day.
