Mandarin Oriental Doha — Msheireb
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.6 Exceptional

Mandarin Oriental Doha is the finest luxury hotel in Qatar — its extraordinary position in the Msheireb regeneration district, the impeccable Sea Garden spa, Mosaic restaurant's stunning chandelier-hung interiors, and the characteristic MO service culture create an experience that surpasses all competitors.

Sharq Village & Spa — West Bay
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.4 Superb

Sharq Village recreates the architecture of a traditional Qatari pearling village on the bay shore — the result is Doha's most romantically distinctive resort, with private beach, extraordinary Barr Al Jissah spa, and a sense of Arabian Gulf heritage that the glass towers cannot provide.

Banana Island Resort — Doha Bay
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.5 Exceptional

Banana Island Resort is Doha's most exclusive and escapist address — a private island accessible only by ferry or seaplane, with Anantara managing 141 all-inclusive villas and bungalows, a magnificent spa, and the extraordinary peace of being genuinely separated from the city across the water.

The St. Regis Doha — West Bay
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.4 Superb

The St. Regis Doha's tower commands an iconic West Bay Corniche position — its butler service, Gordon Ramsay's Opal restaurant, extraordinary Iridium Spa, and rooftop infinity pool create a complete luxury experience that has made it Doha's most celebrated business-luxury hotel.

West Bay

W Doha

W Doha's bold contemporary architecture and WOOBAR — the definitive Doha cocktail destination — have made it the West Bay's social epicentre since opening. The sky pool, IRIDIUM spa, and rooms with spectacular Corniche views attract a younger, design-conscious international crowd.

Mondrian Doha — West Bay
$$$ Upscale
★ 9.0 Superb

Marcel Wanders' extraordinary vision for Mondrian Doha — an Arabesque fantasy of 2,000-hand-painted tiles, soaring atrium, and theatrical public spaces — makes it one of the world's most photographically extraordinary hotels. The SBE group's F&B programming brings serious nightlife sophistication to Doha.

Park Hyatt Doha — The Pearl
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.3 Superb

Park Hyatt Doha occupies the finest position on The Pearl — its low-rise design nestled between the marina and private beach feels more like a Mediterranean island resort than a Doha city hotel. The breakfast with marina views and the Blue terrace bar are both exceptional.

  • The Pearl

Four Seasons Hotel Doha — West Bay
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.5 Exceptional

Four Seasons Doha's position on its own 200-metre private beach strip in West Bay — the only private beach in central Doha — makes it extraordinary. The circular pool design overlooking the bay, Nobu restaurant, and characteristic Four Seasons service complete the picture.

Marsa Malaz Kempinski — The Pearl
$$$ Upscale
★ 9.1 Superb

Marsa Malaz Kempinski occupies the centrepiece of The Pearl's Porto Arabia marina — its 281 rooms and suites, multiple pools, private beach, and the spectacular Arabesque lobby make it the island's largest and most recognisable luxury property. Outstanding for families.

Kempinski Residences & Suites Doha — The Pearl
$$$ Upscale
★ 8.9 Excellent

Kempinski's Pearl residences offer the closest thing to apartment-style living in the heart of The Pearl's most desirable marina district — well-equipped kitchens, generous living spaces, and full hotel services make it the Gulf's best proposition for extended stays or travelling families.
