Southern Sun Hotel Abu Dhabi, Upscale hotel and steakhouse in Al Zahiyah, United Arab Emirates.
Southern Sun Hotel Abu Dhabi is an upscale property with multiple dining and drinking venues in Al Zahiyah. Guests can find The Foundry steakhouse, Kahraman Restaurant, and the rooftop Hytes Bar on the 27th floor.
The hotel arrived in Abu Dhabi during a period when the city was expanding its restaurant and hotel scene. The Foundry steakhouse was introduced as one of the early upscale dining venues in the area.
The Foundry takes its name from the hotel's South African parent group, Tsogo Sun, and serves grain-fed steaks and grills in a dining room on the property. Kahraman Restaurant covers Turkish and Middle Eastern cooking, while the rooftop Hytes Bar on the 27th floor pours drinks above Al Zahiyah.
The property offers multiple dining rooms and lounge areas that provide different experiences for visitors. It helps to know in advance which space you want to visit, as each venue has its own style and focus.
The rooftop venues sit on the 27th floor, where Hytes Bar shares the level with Balcon Lounge & Terrace. Guests order tapas and shisha on the terrace while looking over Al Zahiyah and the surrounding capital district, a setting that pairs a steakhouse menu downstairs with open-air drinks above.
