Grand Hyatt Doha - a lavish Arabian-style retreat



I
t is interesting to see that Hyatt Hotels & Resorts have opened the new Grand Hyatt Doha, an impressive hotel and residential complex, and the first Hyatt hotel to be built in Qatar.

Located in Doha’s new West Bay Lagoon district, Grand Hyatt Doha is situated in its own thirty-eight acres of grounds with 400 metres of beautiful private beach, and offers 249 guest rooms as well as 91 private residences. Despite its idyllic and peaceful location the hotel is actually only minutes away from the city’s financial and commercial centres, and places of cultural and historical interest, which include the newly launched Museum of Islamic Art. Another convenience is that the hotel is only 12.5 miles/20km from Doha International Airport.

The hotel combines a beautiful old-world exterior design with modern and artistic interior design. Key features include a huge atrium and a grand lobby featuring a floor-to-ceiling, 17 metre high glass window. The hotel has three outdoor swimming pools, one indoor swimming pool, a fully equipped fitness centre, and, very much in keeping with modern hotel trends, a large spa.

The hotel has some fabulous restaurants too: Issan serves authentic Thai cuisine prepared in an open kitchen, where the diners can see the spicy food being freshly prepared. The Grill has indoor and outdoor seating, and here you can enjoy grills of the finest meats and seafood.

Qatar itself has an interesting range of leisure activities on offer, including desert safaris, deep-sea fishing, various water sports, equestrian activities, and falconry. So if you would like to see something of this beautiful, warm Arab emirate, Grand Hyatt Doha could be just the place to head for.
