Top Doha Festival City Hotel Reviews

InterContinental Doha Beach & Spa by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"It’s one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at, staff are super helpful, amenities are great. Will be back"

Hilton Doha The Pearl

8/10 Good

"The Pearl is really well located in Doha. Our room was. King studio on the 34th floor, on a corner with a balcony and a superb view of Lusail. The room included a small kitchenette which is great if you are staying longer than a couple of days and the room included a washer drier! Again great if you’re staying longer, especially as you’ll go through clothes at a rate of knots in the Qatar heat! There were a couple of points I think could be better. Firstly the placement of the coffee makers in the kitchenette is awkward. The workout looked a tad scruffy, the edging was all chipped, I’d expect better for 5 star quality. The bed was nice and large but the bed itself moved every time my husband turned or moved disturbing me. The bathroom was too small. The door opens into the bathroom. You have to squeeze around the door to get in and shut it. There is no room to have more than one person using it at once. The bath/shower area was good. There is plenty of room for the door to open out or be sliding. Positive points , we had a nice sitting area and the views. The breakfast was great, eggs cooked to order as well as other specials, lots of variety on the food stations, staff were great. Overall I would recommend staying at The Pearl despite the negative points."

The St. Regis Doha

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel and staff! The hotel is super luxurious and beautiful. All of the staff are so helpful and try their best to make your stay as comfortable as possible and to make you as happy as possible. The food was also amazing, from the club sandwich to the breakfast options. Would definitely recommend the St Regis to anyone staying in Doha."
