    We loved the swimming pools and how clean everything was. The staff were super friendly and the evening turn down housekeeping service for our room was a really nice touch.

    I feel like the rooms can be cleaned better.

    Overall stay was superb and my highlight was the ghawa(Arabic coffee )and dates that were served every afternoon. The live pianist was amazing. Hotel lobby staff were super friendly and attentive. Thank You

    I would like to highlight an urgent safety concern in the bathroom. The shower area tiles are very slippery and pose a serious risk. My daughter has already slipped twice. Please be extra cautious, and in the meantime, consider placing towels or sheets on the floor to reduce the risk of slipping. I strongly recommend proceeding with a renovation to improve safety in that area.

    The location of the hotel was excellent, and the staff were very friendly, especially those at the pool safe guards,and kids’ area. I would like to thank Mrs. Maisa, in particular, for her warm hospitality and great support. She kindly arranged a late checkout and provided us with an extra bed, which we truly appreciated. Thank you again for the wonderful stay.

    There was one aspect that left me a bit disappointed: the guest booklet mentioned amenities like beach slippers and ear plugs that could enhance comfort, but when I inquired, a staff member told me they weren’t available and didn’t show much concern. It was a small letdown in an otherwise excellent experience.

    My experience at the Kempinski Hotel in Doha was truly exceptional, and it all began before I even arrived, thanks to Omar Mazaraa, the Front Office Manager. Omar’s incredible professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care stood out from the very beginning. He made sure every detail of my stay was arranged perfectly, and his dedication to guest satisfaction was the main reason I chose this hotel. Upon arrival, Omar continued to go above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and happy throughout my stay. His warm hospitality and attention to detail made me feel truly valued as a guest. Omar is a shining example of what world-class service looks like, and he is the reason I will absolutely return to Kempinski Doha. I also want to recognize Samir from Housekeeping, who kept my room in pristine condition every day. His friendly smile and commitment to excellence added a personal touch that made a real difference. And Apple from the Switchboard was fantastic, she ensured all my requests were handled quickly and efficiently, always with a cheerful attitude. The hotel itself is luxurious and beautifully maintained, but it’s the **exceptional staff—especially Omar Mazaraa—**who make it truly unforgettable. Highly recommended!

    Too far away from other resturants besides the hotel. Plus very expensive.

    The attention to detail for our honeymoon was expetional. The staff couldn't do enough for us. We treated so well and was the best hotel of our honeymoon. Was quiet pricey for food and drink. My wife was treated like a princess

    Nice room, but boring stay for the kids and families as a whole

    Like all resorts where there are activities all day long to entertain kids and adults. Kempinski didn’t plan any activities for the kids like shows and games etc.. there was only one small kids club for 4 years old and less. Not suitable for 10&12 years old. It was boring and no water sports either as the person who is responsible of it was sick. For summer vacation better go out of qatar if you prefer entertainment and good activities for the kids. Here in qatar even in most expensive resorts no activities or shows are planned during summer unfortunately this is not the first time. If qatar wants to attract tourists they should plan at least traditional show in hotels like we find in most of the resorts around the world keep tourists entertained during the day and at night too, have fun ! Finally value is less than the price we paid for. Only buffet is breakfast. No buffet in lunch or dinner. And the restaurants available in kempinski are way too expensive with poor menu.

    Clean and luxurious decorations. Good customer service. Mike was hospitable and helpful he upgraded us to pool room view.

    I asked the lady in the red long dress at the lobby to arrange for someone to service and enhance my room while we were out for dinner. She confirmed, but no one came. The room was truly in need of attention.

    The place is fantastic, with helpful staff, excellent food quality, comfortable rooms, a delicious breakfast, and a perfect location.
