Picolo recommends · Hotel in Doha, Qatar
Four Seasons Hotel Doha
Boats rock in a small marina below your window, and the Corniche promenade starts almost at the hotel gate.
From the upper floors of the tower you look straight across the bay, with the marina and a strip of beach right below. In the morning the water is still, and joggers are already out on the Corniche.
The hotel is one of the established names in West Bay, with several restaurants that people in Doha know well. It works as well for a work trip as for a couple who want both beach and city.
Picolo’s verdict
Why we chose Four Seasons Hotel Doha
We like it for the balance. You get a beach and a marina, yet the Corniche leads you on foot towards the museums and the souk, which few beach hotels in Doha can offer.
It has been around longer than most of its rivals, and some rooms feel dated. Ask for a renovated room or a high floor if the details matter to you.
