Mandarin for Qatar

Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group has signed a deal to manage a new luxury city centre hotel and serviced apartments in Doha. Developed by owners, DohaLand, the property is scheduled to open in 2014.

Mandarin Oriental, Doha will be the group’s second hotel in the Middle East following its announcement to open Mandarin Oriental, Abu Dhabi, in 2013.

Mandarin Oriental, Doha will be located beside Souk Waqif and the city’s business centre in West Bay. The project is set to regenerate the core of the city, recreating a way of living that is rooted in Qatari culture, and reflecting the growing international importance of Doha as a leisure and business destination.

The property will feature 160 guestrooms and suites, 95 serviced apartments, and extensive banqueting and meeting facilities, including a 350-seat ballroom, seven function rooms and an executive boardroom. Spa at Mandarin Oriental will include 10 private treatment rooms, a vitality pool and other heat and water experiences.
