Located in the desert island of Yas, Viceroy Yas Hotel is 31 minutes’ drive to Abu Dhabi Art in Manarat Al Saadiyat.

T

he Viceroy Yas Hotel, overlooking the Yas Marina Circuit, home to the Abu Dhabi Formula 1 Grand Prix is an architectural landmark that embodies many important influences and inspirations based on ancient Islamic art and craft traditions. The Grid-Shell with sweeping, curvilinear forms constructed of steel and 5,800 pivoting diamond-shaped glass panels is an atmospheric-like veil that visually connects and fuses the two hotel towers and link the entire complex together while producing optical effects and spectral reflections that play against the surrounding sky, sea and desert landscape – is a destination within itself.
