Laundry & Dry Cleaning at Four Seasons Abu Dhabi.

Gym kit from the hotel fitness centre, weekend clothes and sleepwear do not need dry cleaning. Put them in one bag: up to 6kg is AED 60, up to 12kg AED 99, with AED 12 per extra kilo. Folded and back at Four Seasons Abu Dhabi within a day, so the suitcase stays light.

The heart of a business trip. Shirts are AED 15, a blazer AED 40, a two-piece suit AED 50 and a three-piece AED 60. Dresses are AED 40 and blouses AED 15. Hand them over before noon and they can be back before your evening plans.

A suit that spent the flight in a garment bag only needs pressing. A shirt on a hanger is AED 9, trousers AED 12 and a jacket AED 25, or a kandura AED 12. Back at the lobby within 24 hours, ready for the next round of meetings in the tower next door.

The hotel provides its own linen, so this is for people who live in apartments on Al Maryah and Al Reem. Sheets are AED 18, comforters AED 45 and duvets AED 50, and bath towels AED 6. Most bedding is back in 24 hours; large duvets need 48.

Polished shoes matter in a client meeting. Formal shoes and sneakers are each AED 55 a pair, boots AED 85 and sandals AED 45. Cleaning and conditioning take two to four days, so book early in a longer stay and they will be ready before you leave.

A leather briefcase marked by daily use, a laptop backpack or a suitcase before the flight home. Briefcases, handbags and backpacks are AED 45, crossbody bags AED 55 and large suitcases AED 165. Expect three to five days for a careful clean.

A new suit bought at The Galleria that needs the trousers hemmed, a sleeve shortened or a waist adjusted. Simple alterations start at AED 40 and take 48 to 72 hours, so plan them for the first days of your trip and they return with the rest of your order.

For people with homes on Al Maryah Island and nearby Al Reem, not for hotel rooms. Standard carpets cost AED 20 per square metre, wool AED 26 and curtains AED 20 to 25. Collected from the building and returned in three days.

For couples celebrating in the capital who want the gown cleaned before it is packed away. Plain gowns are cleaned from AED 250, beaded or embroidered ones from AED 450, and a keepsake box is AED 210. It takes 7 to 14 days.

For event agencies running launches and promotions in The Galleria and around the island. Character costumes are AED 200, 230 or 250 depending on size, with accessories at AED 30 each. They return within three to five days.

Families who join a working parent often bring children aged 4 to 12, and a favourite toy comes too. Small soft toys are AED 55, medium AED 70 and large AED 120. Washed and dried gently over two to three days.

For apartment owners on the island with removable sofa covers. A standard cover is AED 35, a larger one AED 40 and cushion covers start at AED 10. They come back in two to three days, ready to fit again.

A leather jacket for winter evenings or fine leather shoes from a week of meetings. Jackets are AED 150, shoes and boots AED 180 and small leather goods AED 100. Each piece is cleaned and conditioned over three to five days.
