Shangri-La Hotel, Qaryat Al Beri, Abu Dhabi, recently announced its new airside 'meet and greet' service at Abu Dhabi International Airport. In an effort to provide a superior service to guests, Shangri-La Hotel, Abu Dhabi, has been granted access to the Transient and Immigration areas of the airport.

As a unique service in the city, any guest who books our hotel limousine transfer service from the airport to the Hotel will receive this service free of charge.
