Raffles and Fairmont Doha are opening their doors in Qatar this year.
Situated within the new district area of the city of Lusail, the official opening is expected to take place this Christmas and New Year.
The dual-branded properties will be housed within the ultra-modern and iconic Katara Towers, a distinctive landmark destination.
Raffles Doha, an opulent 132-suite property, offers a luxury suite experience and décor inspired by palaces, paired with views of The Gulf and Doha skyline.
Each suite has its own balcony, personalised butler services, bespoke amenities, a gallery wall with a collection of highly curated books and a maxi bar that includes customised beverages and snacks.
Special themed suites include features such as a marble wine cellar, beauty salon, sauna, gym and outdoor lounge area.
Multi-sensory dining curated by the world’s finest chefs are available including theatrical artisanal cuisine, contemporary Italian flavours by three-star Michelin chef, a rooftop lounge with silk-route-inspired tapas, bespoke afternoon tea experiences and classic cocktails in the speakeasy lounge.
Raffles Doha’s spa comes with nine spa & fitness suites, each equipped with its own state-of-the-art treatment rooms and some offering private outdoor terraces and plunge pools.
The five-star Fairmont Doha contains 270 rooms, 92 suites, four themed suites and one presidential suite, all inspired by the interiors of luxury mega yachts.
With gold mosaic wall tiling, the rooms present an outstanding visual spectacle with rounded and curved walls.
Boasting a spectacular seafront setting, the property houses the world’s tallest chandelier, which will be suspended high above the lobby area.
Fairmont Gold members will have access to their own pool bar and dedicated loungers at the pool, as well as both indoor and outdoor dining spaces, social events and butler service.
With three restaurants and two lounges, guests can dine on creative Latin American cuisine, progressive Indian dining, and provocative Asian cuisine alongside a unique afternoon tea experience, botanical shisha and Levantine sharing plates in the rooftop lounge and garden.
The fitness centre offers a climbing wall, spin classes, indoor lap pool and yoga rooms while the Fairmont Spa comes complete with a vitality pool, relaxation rooms, hammam and treatment rooms.
Guests at both properties can escape to Privée, a floating island, set to be the most desirable outdoor destination in Doha.
