The Filipina lady at the reception always has a big smile whenever you approach. She is very welcoming. Nagim, from concierge is a hardworking guy and was always ready to assist. The location accessible to everything, beach is just opposite and City Center Mall is just one block away.

Need to improve housekeeping because they usually just make the bed, refilled toiletries and changed the trash bags. The rest are not cleaned, furnitures are not wiped, the headboard was gathering dust already. The carpet was not vacuumed. Even crumpled tissues were not taken away. When we first came,I had to wipe the inside of the cabinet to put my things inside. Management needs to improve this part bec the the design of the building is already a bit outdated already but can be compensated with cleanliness and neatness.

The room has nice sea view, and comfortable , available all the facilities. The hotel location is near to city centers and other important location, also free access to private beach (cross the road). The staff are very supportive especially Mr Tarek in the reception.

The breakfast variety is limited Limited places for parking - however valley guy will support to get place The gym machine were limited with broken treadmill The swimming pool was small - only for kids the AC control was having some technical issue

The hotel is located across the street from the beach and is walking distance from two beach clubs. The staff was friendly and helpful. All requests were responded to in a timely manner (both electronically before we arrived and at the hotel). The breakfast buffet has a great variety and nice views. The pool area is lovely and overlooking the ocean (not infinity). The hotel is also located right next to a few cafes, which comes in handy for late night snacks. The hotel also gives vouchers for free entry to the W Beach Club.

The hotel restaurant does not sell alcohol. However, there is a nice Hilton across the street where one can have a few sundowners.

The hotel boasts a fantastic location with a beach access. The room had a magnificent sea view. Breakfast and dinner were absolutely delicious, and the staff were very welcoming.

The only downside was that the room was cold, and unfortunately, there was no way to adjust the temperature.

I had an excellent stay at this hotel. The room with the sea view was simply outstanding, providing a beautiful and peaceful atmosphere. The location is perfect, right in the heart of the city center, making it incredibly convenient to explore everything the area has to offer. One of the highlights of my stay was the staff—they were incredibly friendly, professional, and always quick to respond to any requests, which made my experience even better. The breakfast was delicious, offering a great selection of options. Additionally, I appreciated the hotel’s no alcohol policy, which contributed to the tranquil and family-friendly environment.

Friendly staff. Great location. Fantastic sea view from bedroom window on 16th floor. Great breakfast selection delivered to room during Ramadan. Iftar buffet in dining room was also very good and reasonably priced. 10 minute walk to City Mall. Beach just across the road. The Corniche is great for running, walking or bike riding. 20 minutes from airport.

Nothing really to complain about. Excellent for the price paid per night.

I recently stayed at the Retaj Hotel in Doha and had a wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with a smile. This made my stay very pleasant and stress-free. The buffet breakfast was excellent value for money, offering a wide variety of delicious options to start the day. It was a great way to fuel up before exploring the city. The hotel’s central location was a major plus, making travel around Doha very easy as everything was conveniently close by. Additionally, the hotel boasts excellent amenities, including a swimming pool, gym, and spa. These facilities were well-maintained and provided a perfect way to relax and unwind after a busy day. Overall, I highly recommend the Retaj Hotel for its friendly service, great breakfast, convenient location, and top-notch amenities.

Literally everything except:

The room service wasn’t always the best. In most cases they did everything well but there were times when they took our bath towels and forgot to give us a new one (after calling the reception they sent us a pair, no problem).

Quiet and location

Room smell like cigarettes

Great location, just across the street from the sea, complimentary entrance to the beach club (nice beach, clear sea, booths with drinks and snacks, free WiFi). Breakfast was really good, large selection. Room was big. I really loved the behavior of the staff (front desk , concierge, waiters, housekeeping).They were very professional and approachable.

As mentioned couple of times here, the hotel would need some reconstructions . But still it offers comfortable accomodation for a reasonable price.
