This is a new hotel and still not fully finished yet. The hotel reception when checking in was pretty average. We requested a sea view room and was told hotel was fully booked, I found out later that it wasn't at all. I got the impression that she was just uninterested in checking. Very lack lustre.
I had requested a twin room, and we were given a double. When I asked if we could change, other hotel staff (concierge and housekeeping) offered us a variety of rooms ... that's why I then knew hotel wasn't fully booked.
The rooms are lovely. Nice and modern decor, very comfortable beds with white quilts/duvet's and big, soft pillows. There was a small sink, tea and coffee making facilities and complimentary water.
Flat screen tv. No bathtub, but huge shower. Complimentary bathrooms products were really nice quality.
Hotel pool is indoors on the 26th floor. Great view from here. Worth checking out, even if you didn't want to swim. Small coffee shop is alongside it. We had a very nice fruit cocktail drink. Pleasant staff, the guy doing the juices was really friendly.
Ladies jacuzzi area was being worked on. So could not check that out.
Breakfast was excellent. Very friendly staff here too and a good variety to choose from. Chairs are a bit low though for the table when sitting down to eat :-)
Transfers to the airport if organised through the hotel was going to be 90 riyals each way. This is an absolute RIP OFF. Get a regular taxi. Fare should be around 18 riyals.
You are close to the City Centre Shopping Mall. Excellent mall. Walking distance.
There is a huge amount of construction work going on around this hotel at the moment. Probably will be for the next 1-2 years. In fact all of Doha is one huge construction site.
I would recommend this hotel, but the reception staff have got to improve. Not a very good first impression was given to us by the lady checking us in.
