Atmospheric palatial hotel
Doha is a stark contrast to the desert landscape that surrounds the city. But with its sand-colored columns, Sharq Village & Spa, a Ritz-Carlton Hotel manages to bring the atmosphere of the sand dunes into the city. But in a luxurious way. Because on the floor no sand, but marble. The arches in the interior give the hotel something palatial. The Arabic music makes guests dream away. But the leather poufs and the ornately carved wooden furniture in the rooms are real. And so are the views over the Gulf. Thanks to the earth tones, the hotel exudes a tranquility more befitting a desert than a metropolis.
Worldly dishes and treatments
That you are here in the heart of Doha after all, is evident around dinner time. With no fewer than nine restaurants, the hotel offers guests a choice of dishes from all over the world. A drink on the shisha terrace or in the cigar lounge. A luxurious Spa with choice of Arabic, Thai or Swedish treatments. The modern Arabian art museum around the corner. Everything suggests that you are in the middle of the city. Yet here, thanks to the peace, tranquility and enchantment of Sharq Village, the atmosphere of the desert prevails.
