Mondrian Doha, Qatar Hotel

Qatar

It’s a tough task to stand out in the opulence of Doha, but this 24-storey tower family hotel excels, nodding to regional folklore but with a polished, modern perspective. Inside, intriguing contemporary style comes courtesy of acclaimed Dutch designer Marcel Wanders – think giant columns embellished with golden eggs, a floral ‘tree of life’, ornate stained glass and intricate mosaic tiling.

Boasting 211 rooms and 59 suites with waterfront views from West Bay to The Pearl, Mondrian Doha offers something to astound and delight everyone wishing to explore this fascinating city.

A variety of food is available – including Mediterranean bistro and high-end Japanese cuisine, and with 12 treatment rooms, a heated experience garden, Moroccan and Turkish hammams. and a pool, the Espa Spa will not disappoint.

An all-round, reasonably priced winner.

Doubled from £195.
