Raffles Doha

Raffles Doha is a five-star luxury hotel on East Marina Street in the Marina District of Lusail, Qatar, a planned waterfront city north of central Doha. Lusail is home to Lusail Stadium, the Lusail Boulevard and a growing set of marinas and promenades, and the hotel lists the Lusail Tram nearby, giving guests a public-transport link to the district's attractions. Central Doha and Souq Waqif are roughly 20 to 30 minutes away by car, and Hamad International Airport is somewhat further, so the hotel works best as a base for visitors who want a modern, spacious seaside setting rather than the older city core. The architecture is contemporary and grand in scale, with palatial public areas that reflect the brand's colonial-era heritage reinterpreted for the Gulf. Accommodation is divided into Deluxe rooms and suites, and butler service is listed among the amenities, giving the property a personalised, residential feel. Dining is spread across several restaurants, including all-day venues and finer evening options, and breakfast is usually an extensive affair. Wellness facilities include a spa, multiple pools and a fitness centre, and the resort-style pool areas are a main attraction in the cooler months. The service character is formal and attentive, aimed at affluent leisure couples, families and visitors attending events in Lusail. The concierge can arrange transfers, desert and dhow experiences and trips to the Corniche and Msheireb. Indicative nightly rates run from about QAR 1,500 to QAR 3,500, with peak pricing from November to March and lower rates during summer.
