Abu Dhabi City Golf Club
Reviewed October 15, 2011
Played this course in early October 2011. It is a 9-hole course located inside a horse race track. The fairways and greens were in excellent shape. Very flat with several holes having water. Not very busy, so 9 holes were played quite quickly. Employees were extremly helpful. Good restaurtant foor food and drink after a round.

Golf in the middle of the city in the racecourse
Reviewed February 17, 2020
Played on 9.2.2020. The 9-hole course (PAR 35) is located in the middle of the Mega City Abu Dhabi within a racecourse. It is an oasis of calm in the city and should definitely be played once as it is a special experience. Again and again I am amazed how you can build a golf course on such a restricted area. The course / clubhouse cannot compete with most other golf courses in the UAE, but the course itself is varied, well-kept and also not so easy to play due to the water hazards and doglegs that come into play again and again, as well as well-placed bunkers, We particularly liked the super fast and loyal greens. The state of care was absolutely in order. Due to the mostly open lanes, higher HC should also be able to cope, possibly take a few more balls because of the water hazards. There is a driving range, which is exactly on the other side of the racecourse. So you have to go there by car, which is certainly a disadvantage. All the more friendly are the staff, both at the counter, and the Marshall (drove us to the 1st tee and explained everything), as well as the waiters in the restaurant. We booked a tee time online through Golfscape and paid 35 € per person for 9 holes including cart and a bottle of water. The game operation on a Sunday morning (in the UAE is Sunday = Monday) was quite busy. Nevertheless, we were able to go alone on the lap in pairs and were through without a long wait after 1.5 hours. Since the facility is fully equipped with floodlights, you can play very early in the morning or after sunset. Certainly a great experience! You can also eat at any time in the restaurant. There is a wide selection of dishes. Compared to the hotels, the food is not a culinary highlight, but it is good and inexpensive. For around € 8 you can also use the pool area after the round. We did that and had the pool including jacuzzi and sun beds all to ourselves all afternoon. Certainly not a luxury pool but absolutely clean and in order. In conclusion, no Nobel Club but a recommendation of a different kind.

No Must Play
Reviewed March 17, 2016
The plant falls over the other places in Abu Dhabi from clear. The layout of the holes bored, due to the limitation by the racecourse also was not enough space available.
I played the course in mid-March at noon. The fairways and the rough were relatively dry, otherwise the maintenance condition was good. Since the space is equipped with floodlights, a very early or late start time would have been better.
Exercise equipment I have not seen, and the clubhouse is nothing special.
So I have my statistics added 9 hole, but again I do not play on the pitch.

Golfing at night - an experience
Reviewed February 13, 2012
I was now in February '12) a week and played three rounds, beginning at "6 hours early," was only 7:00 against the sun - an experience when you play golf, it's still us Finster floor - only the 3rd Hole the sun was rising in me.
The entire facility is equipped with floodlights, opening times of early 6h - 22h at night.
Great 9 holes, many limitations of water through and around a racetrack, and the PAR 5 with 600yds is also not without.
Highly recommended, in the middle of town, so easy reach.
Ideal for golf about 3 hours (including round-trip) - I was always after breakfast with familiy (in your own hotel).
