Marsa Malaz Kempinski The Pearl, Doha, Qatar Located on an island at the heart of the Pearl, the slick redevelopment at the waterfront, the Marsa Malaz Kempinski has 281 rooms with great ocean views and a style that combines European and Arabian influences. The facilities are as top-end as you’d expect, with no fewer than seven restaurants, several bar areas, a gym, spa and tennis court. Better still, the hotel has not only a series of outdoor pools to relax around but a private beach, with excellent watersports activities for adults and children alike — the latter also kept entertained at the dedicated kids’ club, making this a good option for families. W Doha Wesy Bay, Doha, Qatar From the vibrant accent colours in the bedrooms to the pair of sparring polar bears in the lobby, the W Doha’s focus on design is all around. The hotel is located in popular West Bay, with its illuminated, sleek skyscrapers, and provides easy access to all the city’s main attractions. Among the facilities are an atmospheric pool, well-equipped gym and high-end spa. The dining options are impressive and suitably stylish in decor, with Italian and Latin American cuisines, as well as two restaurants overseen by superstar chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten. Banyan Tree Doha Msheireb, Doha, Qatar One of the newest on the scene, Banyan Tree Doha is in the historic Msheireb part of the city, with accommodation looking over either the sea, a cultivated garden or the city itself. Choose from guest rooms or suites or, for longer stays, a wide range of two- and three-bedroom apartments. For some luxuriating, head to the Rainforest Hydrotherapy area, divided between male and female sections and each with a pool, hot tub, steam room, sauna and rain walk. Dine later at restaurants serving Italian, Thai and Indian food or linger over a drink in the Vertigo bar on the 28th floor. 50
