Addressing Disparities in Service at Southern Sun Abu Dhabi I am writing to express my observations regarding the service at Southern Sun Abu Dhabi, which I have frequented during my travels as an African professional in international sectors. While my second visit offered a satisfactory experience, I've noted a concerning disparity in the level of service provided during my first and most recent stays. Specifically, I've perceived a difference in how staff, including those of African descent, engage with and assist African guests compared to those of European backgrounds. On two separate occasions, I felt a marked reluctance from the porter to assist with parking my vehicle or to allocate a driver, a stark contrast to the prompt and proactive assistance offered to a European guest who arrived just before me. This experience left me feeling as though I was actively seeking a basic service that was readily extended to others. These instances have led me to question whether there's an unconscious bias influencing interactions with African professionals. As a frequent international traveler, I value seamless and respectful service, and it is disheartening to encounter situations that suggest otherwise. I believe it's crucial for Southern Sun Abu Dhabi to ensure all guests, regardless of their background, receive consistent and equitable service. Addressing these perceptions will not only enhance the guest experience for African professionals but also reinforce the hotel's commitment to inclusive hospitality.

Sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt in einem so-called Ccity Hotel. Alles was man braucht in der Nähe des Hotels. Selbtsbedienung kostenloser Parking. Zimmer und Bad groß genug, Pool, Sauna und Dampfbad auf Dach. Freundliches Personal, besonders Juma im Wellness und Pool-Bereich. Bars und Restaurants im Hotel. Nichts zu beanstanden, würde das Hotel weiter empfehlen...
