Al Markhiya Vacations from SAR1,865

I was living in Qatar previously and this time went to Qatar for a shopping trip. Sherao hotel was the best stay I choose. Clean, safe, and conveniently located. The only negative part was that their internet services were bad and inconsistent causing my remote meeting delays.

Fantastic stay with my family. It is the definition of 5 star located in downtown, in a very affluent area offering excellent dining options as well as. 5 mins walk from the Souk. Staff were extremely friendly from the checking staff to house keeping and even the concierge. Free valet parking was available which we took advantage off, staff were always at hand to help all the time. Highly recommend the hotel if you are visiting Doha

**BEWARE BEFORE BOOKING**WORTH READING**MIGHT SAVE YOU SOME FRUSTRATIONS I rarely write reviews but my experience with this hotel left me no choice. **This review is long but hopefully it will spare another family the same frustrations that we encountered with this place.**While this hotel is listed as 5 stars, there are several factors in my opinion that make it a 3-4 star @ the most despite its elegance & great location. #1- This is not a family hotel. The hotel has no outdoor space at all except for an outdoor patio located on floor P2 that’s also the location of one of their ONLY 2 restaurants where you can eat dinner even if you choose and pay for their 1/2 board option. There’s no courtyard, the pool is inside and it doesn’t even have a hot tub/jacuzzi. #2- The main dining room is only open for breakfast & lunch. For some reason, they close it for dinner which I’ve never seen before. Even then, one day during our stay there was a “private event” being held there during lunch and some of the staff told us we couldn’t come in for lunch. A 3rd staff member had to be called and told them they could let us in. So if you pay for 1/2 board, you’re left with only 2 places to eat dinner, the Walima restaurant & the Hudson. ***But here’s what makes this even worse.***They also often have “private events” during lunch & dinner times @ those only 2 available restaurants, and when they do, guests are not allowed to eat in them during those “private events”. #3-Extra charge for

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, and the room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The location was perfect, close to everything I needed
