The Mandarin Doha, completely staying in line with the Mandarin Orientals level of quality but also leading the way in luxury hotels in Doha.
From the start to the end of our stay everything was up to the highest standards.
I stayed with my wife and my one year old daughter for 6 days, and the staff, especially front of house and breakfast staff went the extra mile with my daughter every day, as a newish parent this is appreciated highly. From treating my daughter with mandarin toys to keeping her entertained and just a smile and hello in the morning kept her on top of the world.
The hotel is located in the Mishreb downtown district, now this may not be a beach front property but honestly I believe this is an ideal location;
Lusail city - 20 mins driving
Souq Waqif - 5 minutes walking
Museum of Islamic art - 5 minutes driving
Kata - 15 minutes driving
The pearl - 17 minutes driving
Villaggio mall - 15 minutes driving
The hotel has ample amenities; a very clean and well equipped roof top pool, with attentive staff.
Breakfast was fresh, delicious, clean and the staff accommodated all of our requests down to the T, after 2 days most things were provided for our daughter without even having to ask. They also have a cafe, we serves afternoon tea, we did not try this but seemed very popular, there's also an additional restaurant. Finally there's an ice cream located to the rear of the hotel with absolutely Devine sorbets!
The house keeping staff were excellent with high quality
