Family-friendly Hotels in Doha

Everyone made me feel really at home in my 4 days there. Irfan and Muhaidi and the others at Front Desk listened carefully for my requests and tried to help wherever they could and provided information for me around town. Gamal introduced me to the room and also took the initiative to guide me around the neighbourhood the next day. Staff at the Lounge also made watching World Cup matches there comfortable and enjoyable, sometimes coming over to make small talk about the football and was able to attend to our every need. For location, the hotel is within 5min walk to a Metro station and amenities like restaurants, supermarkets and pharmacies. Room was great, but found deposits unfortunately at the kettle spout. Thank you, Millennium Central Doha.

A perfect trip to the World Cup, the club on the top floor of the hotel is great, and there are beers to drink. The hotel is located in the absolute city center, just a stone's throw away from the old bazaar. Perfect!

I stay few days in this hotel. Well located. Pleasant stay. The Roof restaurant was very good. I would like the thank Housekeping, principally Mr. Murtaza for his professional efficiency and his kindness. Able to resolve issues. I will definitely come back again.

I enjoyed my recent 4 night stay in the Movenpick. Its really well located only a few minutes walk from the National Museum and the metroline. You can walk to Souq Waqif on about 15 minutes, the National Museum in about 5. The metro is excellent and both the Souq and Museum stations are easily walkable. The room was really spacious, clean, modern and comfortable. The bathroom was spotless and the room had all mod cons - no complaints whatsoever. The pool area is small but very nice. It gets the sun all morning until about lunchtime when the shadow moves around. It has a nice steamroom and gym too. The breakfast is superb, if there is an option to include breakfast with your room it's well worth paying it - omlettes, cereals, fruits, breads, meats...I was so well fed I didn't need lunch! The bar is a bit smoky for my liking, and way too dark to sit and read. But it has lots of screens showing the sports so that's good. Going before 10 and drinks are 20% cheaper. But really, I just couldn't stick the smoke. Its illegal in my country to smoke in bars so I'd forgotten how utterly disgusting it is. But it's obviously legal here so the bar are likely doing nothing wrong. Luckily though this is my review, I think the smoke is horrible and ruins the bar for everyone else so there we go. The hotel staff were really helpful, especially the guys that run the health centre and the lovely folks in the restaurant at breakfast. Oh yes, if you walk out the front entrance and follow the walls around to your left you'll find an excellent 24 hour service station with all the snacks, toothpaste, over the counter meds etc you'll need. Great to grab a cold drink after a walk in the heat! I'd definitely stay here again though, no hesitation.

It is very nice hotel, surrounded with restaurants, value for money, staffs are friendly, especially I would like to thank Sharfaraz khan, he been very helpful for comfortable stay. Happy stay ...... :)

OK, so based on reviews etc decided to stay here even though I am a Marriott Bonvoy loyalty member. Arrived at 6am and was not expecting a room for early check-in but if you don't ask then you will not know. Walked up to checkin counter, no greeting what so ever. Asked if it was possible to checkin early and he said no and that they are totally full. No occupancy left. I said OK fair enough. I said I wanted to pay for breakfast for 2 adults for 6 nights so wanted to go eat breakfast at that time. They said it would be 150 QAR each per day. I said I had an email from the reservations team that it was 115. They said no that was wrong and not sure why reservations would say that. Asked to speak with manager who arrived promptly. Told him that I was told to checkin later at 2pm but wanted to clarify breakfast costs. He told me to sort breakfast costs out direct with restaurant but he said he can give me a room straight away at 6am (even though it was an upgraded room which I know it was not). So for a hotel that was at full capacity that now had rooms available was appreciated. Went to room, left luggage then headed to breakfast to pay for 2 adults. Lady there said it was 150 per couple! So now, 3 different prices but as I got it at the cheapest version I went with that, LOL. OK, so the breaskfast is crap. Cold food sorry to say but really a breakfast spread...more just cold stuff, continental....and you can get eggs/waffles, avocado/toast. Bakes beans cold, halloumi cold, mushrooms on one day stone cold. Me and my wife were vegetarian (no egg either) so limited in options. The managers Anuj and specially Reda did pull it out of the bag and got us hash browns and parathas when we asked but not sure why these sort of options have to be requested. Normally, what you pay is what you get but at 115 each (around £25 each the breakfast is crap). It was only because Expedia was going to re-imburse me that we went for breakfast, otherwise we would have gone to the vegan cafes opposite - Mylk or EverGreens). The rooms, nothing special. Clean but weighing scales not working, TV channels crap and water leaking from shower area into bathroom area so had to block it off with a towel. Location is OK...opposite a good shopping mall, but to be honest I would just pay a little more and stay at the Marriott which is linked to the Mall. Now this is where the pain was. Whenever we wanted to leave the hotel and go to the Gate Mall next door we would have to get off at floor 2, walk across the lobby to catch another lift to get to the ground floor. Our key card did not allow us to go all the way down to the ground floor from our room floor. Security told me to get access from the reception. I asked Mohammed at reception if I could get that and he said that option was only available for long stay guests and because we were there for ONLY 6 nights it would not be possible to arrange that. I told him that was useless and he could not care less

Not bad, cost-effective, with a balcony, the balcony looks out to the swimming pool, the view is also very wide, the price is also cheap, the front desk service is very good! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

We had an amazing time here, it was 5 stars! It was immaculately clean and designed. I was at peace because there was a Quran and prayer mat in our room, there's a Qatari vibe to the hotel; architecture, smell (smells gorgeous), staff. The staff are very attentive and theres a quick service. Breakfast was perfect, we had dinner and in room dining service which was perfect and special. We used the gym ( excellent exercise machines) , rooftop pool was perfect with private shower rooms. The spa was amazing, we had a couples hammam. The only thing I'm not sure about is, wether guests can use the sauna and steam rooms as they are in the spa, we got to use it because we were clients there. We also loved the segregation in the spa. It was perfect, we wish we stayed longer, it felt like home, we will visit again in sha Allah. We booked 2 hotels; after we moved to St Regis and missed Steinberger so much, out of both hotels we loved Steinberger and wanted to return. Steinberger scored way better than a well-known hotel resort. Thankyou for taking care of us.

I stayed at the Kempinski Hotel for three nights and experienced a roller coaster ride from anger to comfort. Before going, I booked a twin room with pearl view with longing. I hope to enjoy the true beauty of Pearl Island. When I entered the room, I found that I spent a lot of money on the balcony, and the balcony turned into a wall-view room. After arguing with the front desk reasonably, I changed a room for me. Before going to bed, I found that the bathroom lights were broken and the door was broken. So I was completely disappointed, I didn't dare to trust Kempinski anymore, I just wanted to check out and change to a hotel. I happened to meet the manager of the hotel Omar during another fight with the front desk at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, he changed a suite for me, and the result was quite gratifying. But thinking about the previous experience, I was tossing and changing rooms with my child dragging a suitcase. This hotel's attitude towards Chinese guests is obvious. Never see me, Kempinski!
