Situated on the coast, overlooking the Arabian Gulf, AFOCH is approximately 20 minutes from the heart of Abu Dhabi city, 15 minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport and 5 minutes from Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre. The Armed Forces Officers Club & Hotel building is one of the largest buildings of its kind in the region. Viewed from the sea the club appears like a huge gold falcon perched on the shore with its wings outstretched, the approach inland is via a landscaped promenade. The hotel has 294 elegantly appointed rooms and suites including 8 multi-cuisine restaurants and lounges. The facilities also include a 50m Olympic-size swimming pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, multifunctional gym, spa, tennis court, squash court, basketball court, football courts (indoor and outdoor), bowling alley and also an indoor shooting range.
