The in-house gold-leaf specialist is a full-time employee here, which tells you most of what you need to know about this palace hotel on Abu Dhabi's Corniche. A Forbes Five Star, it sprawls across a private beach, a marina, a spa, and enough domes and crystal chandeliers to make Versailles feel restrained. World leaders and royals book the suites; everyone else just enjoys having nearly a mile of beach to themselves.
