5 Stars – Unforgettable Stay at The Ritz-Carlton Doha! We’re currently staying at The Ritz-Carlton in Doha and it’s been nothing short of magical! The rooms are beautiful, the service is top-tier, and the staff are some of the kindest and most engaging people we’ve met. They genuinely love hearing where you’re from—and we’ve loved hearing their stories too! Dinner at the international buffet was a highlight. My daughter Mira adored the vegetable korma, and when she passed on her compliments, Chef Elif came out personally to meet her! Such a heartwarming moment that made our night. Huge thank you also to Chef Hsu Lae for the amazing dishes that had us going back for seconds (and thirds!). Special thanks to Allen, the guest relationship expert, who went above and beyond to help us organize something special for Mira’s belated birthday. Her kindness and attention made her feel truly celebrated. This hotel is not just luxurious—it’s full of heart. If you’re coming to Doha, this is the place to stay

I got the sea view room which was very good, the view at night with nearby towers lighting made it even more amazing. The staff was down to earth helpful and nice to talk to. They accommodated a last minute celebration and made the stay even more enjoyable. Thanks for the front dest and the call center for such wonderful stay. The only thing I missed to check was the beach because pf the windy time I was there, unfortunately.

Honestly, I have had such an amazing time at this hotel. The rooms are beautiful and big. Service is impeccable and in line with the Ritz brand. Breakfast was great and Wafae took absolute care of me (her and her team are exceptional) and she really took the time out to chat and give me suggestions of where to go and what to do. I really appreciated that. The beach area is nice and accessible with a Ritz golf cart. The pool and hotel amenities are super nice too. Loved this hotel and I will be back!

A Wonderful Stay for Our Family – Special Thanks to Isa! We had an amazing time at The Ritz-Carlton Doha as a family. The hotel is beautiful, clean, and truly luxurious – but what made our stay so special was the friendly and caring staff. A huge thank you to Mr. Isa, the Outlets Manager, who was incredibly kind and welcoming. He always greeted us with a big smile and made sure we and our kids felt completely comfortable and happy. It was clear that he truly cares about the guests. The restaurants were delicious and had options even our children enjoyed. The pool area and beach was perfect for relaxing, and the staff was always helpful and patient with our little ones. We felt very welcome and well taken care of from the moment we arrived. If you’re traveling with kids and want a luxury experience with heart – this is the place to be. We will definitely come back! Thank you to the whole team – and especially to Isa for making us feel so at home. Best regards, Bayrak Family

I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Ritz-Carlton in Doha, and overall, it was an exquisite experience. The hotel is beautiful, with stunning architecture and elegant interiors that create a luxurious atmosphere. One of the highlights of my stay was the lovely pool area, which offered a serene escape from the bustle of the city. Additionally, the private beach provided a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the warm weather. We also enjoyed the tea time which they prepared special for us since we are vegetarian. The staff at The Ritz were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we felt welcomed and well taken care of throughout our visit. Their hospitality truly enhanced our experience and added to the overall charm of the hotel. However, I did have a couple of concerns regarding the security checks upon arrival. While I understand that Qatar has strict regulations, my experience was somewhat off-putting. They checked our bags thoroughly, which is expected, but they ended up taking our souvenir candles, claiming they were a fire risk, even though we had no intention of lighting them. They also asked us to open our suitcase to inspect a bottle of coconut oil we had packed, which felt like an invasion of privacy. While I respect the need for safety and security, I don't quite understand why the candles were considered an issue, especially when alcohol restrictions are more understandable. This incident slightly marred an otherwise wonderful stay, but I hope future guests will find the policies a bit more lenient. In conclusion, The Ritz-Carlton, Doha, is a beautiful hotel with fantastic amenities and outstanding service, but the stringent security measures could use some reconsideration for an even more pleasant experience.
