The Pearl
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.
The Pearl
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.
West Bay
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.
West Bay
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.
Doha Bay
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.
West Bay
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.
