The hotel isn’t in a good condition. It is old and hasn’t been renovated. It is honestly a shame as it is located in a great location near Souq waqeef and Mushaireb as well as the metro station. The hotel allows smoking in the room. While we were sleeping we had strong smoking smells coming into our room. I wouldn’t recommend this for Families. The staff were friendly and super nice. I’d give it two star but adding one for the staff experience.

Im from England & stayed in this hotel for 2 weeks. The location was excellent, closed to Metro, souq waqif, gold souq , corniche and airport. The room i stayed in is good except it needs a bit of upgrading with the interiors. The all male staff are all very welcoming and helpful except the head of the housekeeping where his office was located just across my room at the 2nd floor. I approached him once and asked for a top up of the coffee, creamer , sugar but instead of dealing with my request he asked me to call the reception instead to ask for the coffee and cream replenishments. Such a shame because he was always talking on the phone and it’s quite noisy especially in the morning when all these housekeeping staff are talking in that small office. The tall housekeeper for the second floor was very helpful and attentive. Over all, this hotel is superb, nice reception and i love their outdoor seating area. Highly recommended. I will definitely come back and will stay again . Many thanks for making my stay in Doha an awesome experience.

The staff here is bad. 3/4 of the time they said they were doing something they didn’t.

The one redeeming experience was with the engineer they sent up after the third time we asked for someone to fix the air conditioner.

Raiyan was very competent and efficient. He figured out what the issue was within a couple minutes and fixed it quickly.

Located right at Souk Wagif - so very convenient.
Hop-on Bus stop #1 just a short walk from the hotel —I could see the DOHABUS kiosk from my room.

What you see not necessarily what you get

Wasn't given the room I booked but manager blamed that on Hotels.com saying thats what they booked. Room outdated and falling apart. Huge kitchen but no utensils I had to go out and buy plate and spoon. Kettle supplied but no powerpoint for it . Floor uneven from extension. Windows filthy dirty . Vanity would not hold water Chair broken. I was not asked and put on a smoking floor.

The hotel is near of what you need souq waqef,metro station,gold market, etc, The room is spacious, but the mattress left me with a sore back. The AC rattles like an old engine, though thankfully, the window opens to let in fresh air. The bathroom? Don’t expect luxury—no fancy products here, just half-empty shampoo bottles that hint at better days. As for the staff, they’ll make you question who’s really in charge… though the receptionists and the cleaning service are a bright spot—warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind.

It was a comfortable stay. The rooms need a deep cleaning though especially bathrooms as they have mold. Its on the street so was very noisy. The night manager was very professional, but the day crew could work on greeting guests with more respect, not like we are a bother and behave annoyed after just asking one question. Its really close to souq wagif and the National Museum, so location was great.

The location is very good. But, the service at this hotel was terrible! Employees very unfriendly! Only the breakfast room employees was nice and polite, the front desk guy was totally rude. The lady was ok, but never smile or greeting the guest. The young guy at the pool ignore me totally don’t even answer when I said “ good afternoon” ! I can’t understand how people work in the hospitality businesses and never greeting they guests! When I did our check out, the employee just said: “ you are all set” he never said good morning, or thank you, or bye! To me this is extremely rude and unprofessional! I left the hotel feeling bad with all these rude and lack of Cortesy and kindness. Please, learn how to treat your guests.

Generally good and I would recommend. Location wise is very central and walking distance to Souq Waqif and the metro. You can also walk to the corniche. Room was big and spacious but I was upgraded so not sure about other rooms. Complimentary water provided each day. There is a fridge and microwave in the room. WIFI was fine. I didn't eat at the hotel nor include breakfast so I can't comment on food. My room had a stunning view of the Doha skyline. Staff were generally pleasant and friendly except the odd one or two. Hotel was generally clean. My difference between a 4 and a 5 rating is that the hotel needs a paint and to be updated. It looks old. Carpets desperately needed to be replaced. There was rust in the bathroom. Hotels in Qatar are not cheap so this is a good option.

Incredible location

What a great place to stay at. 10-minute walk to souk Waqif, 2 minutes to metro, 5 minutes to local shops and local restaurants and small convenience style supermarkets. 25 minute walk to the National Museum of Qatar. Sure, it was the end of winter, so temperatures were low 20C (high 60s F). Staff were extremely helpful and all but one spoke great English (but he didn't need to). I had a 2020 flight out but was able to have a shower and change 4 hours after I checked out. I don't eat breakfast and ate out every day so I can't comment on the hotel's dining room. The price was fantastic and when I come back to Doha I will have the Kingsgate at the top of my list. The gym is well equipped, and I used it a number of times.

I stayed at this hotel for almost 10 days. They came into my room and cleaned without me knowing which I didn’t like. And when they cleaned the room they rinsed the cups and put them face down. When we went to use the cups we see that they’re not even washed. The sink in the en-suite was absolutely filthy with black mould all around. The bath was broken right in the middle and taped down. For the price we paid, definitely not what we were expecting.

On the day we were leaving, they make a big deal about towels. They gave us 3 towels the day before and they were very adamant they gave 4 towels and we’re not letting us leave. Hence we got late for our flight.

There is no parking near the hotel only a shared car park with residents which is always packed and hard to get a parking space. You will be waiting around 15 mins or so. There was a bad smell in the lobby of 3rd floor where we stayed at. When reporting this smell, they advised they “cleaned the carpet” but the smell lingered for almost 2 days. When asked to change rooms to a different floor, they didn’t accommodate.
Average property if you just wish to sleep and continue your day exploring, but if you wish to spend a lot of time at your room or this hotel, then would recommend another. Swimming pool was small and gym is less than average.

Objectively speaking, this was easily the worst hotel experience in my life.

Firstly, the sheets in my room were stained, the pillow case was stained, even the lamp was stained. I asked for an iron to straighten my white head dress and the iron they gave me essentially painted my white head dress green because of whatever was crusted on it.

If you want a hot shower? Well I hope you aren't in a hurry because you'll have to wait 7-10 minutes for the water to heat up.

Finally, the walls are paper thin and the hallways are littered with drunk people late night. I woke up at 2:30 AM to a drunk woman literally watching Bollywood music videos outside of my room on the loudest setting possible.

On the very same night, after the lady was dealt with, another drunk man who was not staying at the hotel was loudly calling his girlfriend outside of my room trying to find which floor she was staying in!

The security guard was nowhere to be found.

Save your money and go somewhere else, because even after I complained to the reception they were unsupportive.

I hope this helps.
