I booked this hotel because of the location which is about a 10 minute walk to a few restaurants I like to visit to pick up dinner to take back to my hotel. There are a few other hotels in the area where I normally stay but their prices this time were high so I took a chance with the Sapphire Plaza Hotel. It was a good hotel, value for money. There was a big LCD tv, a decent number of English channels like CNN and BBC and a small gym with a few pieces of cardio equipment. I will stay again.

Overall, not bad, but some bugs in the bathroom.

It was a quick trip through Doha so we only stayed one night for our layover. The hotel staff was friendly and accomodating. The rooms were huge! Complimentary water was nice and they refilled too. There were some gnat/bugs but they seemed to be contained to the bathroom. Not sure what they were exactly, but it still kind of grossed us out. The shower was odd and didn't have a full door or curtain. By the time you were finished showering, there was a huge pool of water on the bathroom floor. All in all, would still recommend especially if it's a quick stay due to a layover or something like that. We didn't spend too much time in the hotel since we wanted to see the city.

Reasonable hotel but dry and tiny pool

Advertised mini bar and pool but is a dry hotel with tiny pool and unfortunately in a poor area with no services. The staff are friendly overall but I'd advise using Uber as they kept offering limos which were Kia or basic Nissan at inflated prices. Clean room and overall nice but the TV is purely Arabic except for CNN and France 24 which are English and French respectively. Movie channels were in Arabic.

Convenient but dated

The hotel has certainly seen its prime, probably a decade ago. If you are looking for a reasonably priced place close enough to the airport for a night, I'd highly recommend it but certainly dated. The hotel staff was super nice and helpful which definitely made up for the hotel not being up to date.

Comfortable Stay

We enjoyed a comfortable stay at the Sapphire Plaza Hotel. Rooms are very clean. Staff was helpful when we tried to arrange transportation, however, be wary they may call a private driver (“limousine”) in lieu of a taxi for you. Ask for a metered taxi, which will save you money. There is currently a lot of construction near the hotel so unfortunately it is not very walkable to attractions or to the public busses. Expect to take a taxi everywhere you go.

Very Pleasant Stay, Delightful Staff

I booked to stay at the Sapphire Plaza Hotel for a week in order to tour around Doha and within Qatar.

My check-in and check-out times were out of the usual time-frame i.e. early morning arrival and late night departure, and as a result of this, I had to pay for two additional nights. I was very tired and a little annoyed, as this had not been brought to my attention at the time of booking via Hotels.com. However, the situation was handled extremely well by Hamid, at Reception. He was kind, patient and offered me an upgraded room at the same price as the \"classic\" room I had booked.

The following day I was advised I could stay on in the same \"upgraded\" room for the duration of my stay, which was gladly received.

The bed was really comfortable, one of the nicest I've slept in. The TV had a few English speaking channels, which was good if one wanted to relax and watch a movie.

The breakfast was adequate with a fair assortment to chose from. The one time I ate dinner in the hotel restaurant the buffet food was freshly prepared and tasty.

WiFi was good quality both in the room and lounge area.

The hotel is conveniently located (via taxi, of which I used Uber) to most points of interest in Doha and 20 minutes drive from/to the airport.

I have no complaints about my stay at The Sapphire Plaza Hotel and found every person I encountered to be warm, sincere and helpful. I would have no hesitation in staying here again.

Doha experiences

Very clean modern Hotel and staff willing to assist. Location - you require taxi service to any local points but this would apply to most hotels in Doha and taxis pretty cheap. Hotel provides good transfer service to Airport.
In house restaurants provide good average menus - but for very good experience and range of really affordable options try the Souk.
Bear in mind our review based as travelers and not local clients - and we did find the Hotel pretty thin on \"tourist information\".-. Also take into account local temperatures when travelling.
But overall very pleased with accommodation and level of service..
