Raffles Doha

Raffles Doha Lusail I just came back from my holiday in Qatar.i stayed at what I believe is the best hotel in Qatar! 
Raffels Hotel Doha was a representation of pinnacle luxury, elegance, and world-class services.

I found the location ideal, within one of the most beautiful areas of Qatar. The setting is nothing short of breathtaking — timeless, refined. The service is very good, excellent by far the staff give a personal and professional service. Although everyone was amazing but a few names did stand out like Farah and Akram from dining. They made my breakfast experience even better right from the moment I arrived they remembered me by name and knew my individual preferences — a rare level of care that defines true five-star service. Then there was Hafis, from the lobby, his attentiveness was on point. He would carry my shopping to my suite, offer tea and drinks and lovely conversation. 

Raffle’s also provide personal Butler for each suite this is an impeccable, seamless, intuitive service. The Butler literally is your go to person for everything. I had not packed make - up remover liquid and nail polish remover, I just mentioned it to him and the next thing I knew he had arranged it for me and left them both in the dressing room! Yes the suite has a special dressing room ! Discreet, effortless, attentive, and the Butler is available 24hrs! The bathroom area was so beautiful! Double crystal glass sinks, marble everywhere and gold handles - to top it up the toilet welcomes you by opening itself and the seat is heated, a remote control to allow you to have your bits washed and air dried - lol The balcony is very large, views are stunning and the entrance is from the living room and opens up fully so you get a feeling of the balcony becoming a part of the living room. 

If this all isn’t enough, then there is the hotel’s extraordinary design — crystal elements beyond imagination, the first thing you see is the reception blue sky - it’s breathtaking and the chandeliers, the exquisite marble throughout, creating an atmosphere of grandeur, beauty, and timeless sophistication. You must also try out the Blue Cigar Room, you don’t need to be a smoker to enjoy the experience. There is live Jaz singer, piano player and books to read, from the very first additions of the classic's Also don't miss the acoustics lounge on the very top floor, gives 360 views which are breathtaking, and also has live singers After staying at Raffels, I’d not stay at any other hotel when visiting Qatar again. lol ! Because nothing can beat Raffels in my eyes it’s just so luxurious and redefined — unforgettable in every sense.

We had a wonderful afternoon tea for my birthday, we were served by the beautiful nada and would definitely return

An amazing hotel, the room was perfect and very impressive. But the service is not as good as the hotel, it really detracts. Everyone is exceptionally polite, but none of them can deal with a problem when it arises. They just don’t seem to know what to do. We unfortunately had a couple of significant issues which were poorly dealt with. We were asked how our stay was as we checked out and when we said ‘unfortunately only OK’ the response was just surprise - and that was it! It seems the staff are programmed to ask, but cannot deal with a response that is not positive! The cocktail bar at the top of the hotel should be a pinnacle, but the experience is quite odd up there. Soulless, we left after one drink - we had planned on spending a fair amount of time up there. Breakfast was fantastic, excellent service here and very good quality dishes. The location is OK, but there are no restaurants near by. We wished we had booked and stayed on The Pearl Island, there’s so much choice there. Raffles/Fairmont is without doubt the best looking and well appointed hotels in Doha, but it’s skin deep. The St Regis or the Four Seasons seemed to be the full package, we’ll stay there next visit.

One of the best services and experience Nada at the pastry resturante and suleiman at the front made the night EXTRA EXTRA EXTRA special thank you Team Raffles NADA & SULEIMAN.
