Picolo recommends · Hotel in Doha, Qatar
The St. Regis Doha
A butler unpacks your case while you head for the sand, and the bay in front of the hotel lies flat and warm for most of the year.
The lobby sets the tone: high ceilings, polished floors and the hush of a grand hotel. Beyond it, the pools step down towards a private stretch of sand on the waterfront in West Bay.
Every guest gets the butler service the brand is known for, and the restaurants here draw plenty of locals as well as hotel guests. It is a place to settle in for several nights rather than rush through.
Picolo’s verdict
Why we chose The St. Regis Doha
We picked it for travellers who want old-school luxury with a beach attached. The service is attentive, the water is calm and the dining means you rarely need to leave in the evening.
The look is opulent, not understated, which will not please everyone. The beach is man-made, and you will need a taxi for the old town and the souk.
