Hotels near Yas Marina Circuit
Updated 5 November 2026 · Checked against official sources
Staying on Yas Island means walking or a short shuttle ride to the circuit and the concerts, with no traffic to the city. It books up fast for race week, so here is where to look.
Hotels on Yas Island

Staying in the city instead
Abu Dhabi city is around 20 km from Yas Island. City hotels are often cheaper in race week and closer to the Corniche, Emirates Palace and the Grand Mosque. Plan your route home, as taxis and roads are busiest straight after the race and the concerts. Public buses 102 and 190 link Yas Island with Abu Dhabi Bus Terminal.
Booking tips
- Book as early as you can. Yas Island hotels fill up and prices rise as race week gets closer.
- Check whether your hotel runs its own shuttle to the circuit, and its times on race days.
- Read the cancellation terms before you pay, as race-week rates often can't be refunded.
- Compare a 4-night stay (Thursday to Monday) with fewer nights. Monday checkout avoids the Sunday-night exit rush to the airport.
