The hotel is located in close proximity to popular tourist spots such as the Souq Waqif, Katara Cultural Village and The Pearl, and only a 25-minute drive from the Hamad International Airport.
“Ideal for both extended and transient stays, the 357-key hotel, will comprise 261 guest rooms and suites, along with 96 hotel apartments. Each guest room will be minimum 41 sqm, one of the largest of its kind in the West Bay area,” he said.
Al Majed also mentioned that with a choice of Club, Suites, Deluxe and Premium Deluxe, the rooms come with modern amenities and comfortable furnishings. While the hotel apartments, provide a range of one, two and three-bedroom configurations, complemented by the hotel facilities, offering complete service for longer-stay guests. Its situation in West Bay, means it sits in Doha’s most prestigious neighbourhood, and presents amazing views across the bay, and out in to the Arabian Gulf.
“Qatar is set to host two of the world’s largest sporting events: the FIFA World Cup 2022 – in which the country is expecting to host more than one million international visitors for the World Cup itself and the World Athletic Championship in 2019 which serves as a right time for us to open Dusit Doha Hotel to welcome the organisers, sponsors, and consultants who will be making Doha their home for the next few years. Dusit – being the first 5 star hotel in Qatar with Thai culture and heritage, would enable the vast Thai experience to the valuable customers” he added.
