Four Seasons Hotel Doha is now open and welcoming its first guests following extensive renovations and a complete redesign by Pierre-Yves Rochon. The world-renowned interior designer has reshaped the property into an unmatched luxury destination at the center of Qatar’s capital city, with residential warmth and comfort that is further enhanced by the friendly and intuitive service that is reflective of Four Seasons hospitality.
The entrance has been enhanced with a grandiose door, reminiscent of grande dame entrances, and the Lobby has been redesigned as an open-plan space, allowing light to flood through the foyer as well as boasting views of the Arabian Gulf. The Lobby boasts an array of handmade and bespoke Italian furnishings, including a hand-blown glass chandelier that takes center stage and adorns the Lobby’s ceiling.
Set along the picturesque beachfront of the Arabian Gulf, and in close proximity to the cultural landmarks of Doha, the vast renovations span an entire redesign of the Hotel’s bedrooms, suites, guest floors, Lobby and dining outlets. The public areas have adopted a range of greens to evoke the feeling of a garden and new life.
In addition to offering Hermès amenities in all suites, and state-of-the-art technology. Pierre-Yves Rochon’s inspiration was the capital city itself, where the world of man and the beauty of nature meet. The redesigned rooms follow a soothing spectrum of blues and beiges reflecting the colors of Doha, where the sky, sea, sand, and earth come together and impart a more residential feeling.
As well as a complete redesign of the interiors, the Hotel introduces the expansion, as well as the redevelopment, of its diverse dining and lounge concepts. Arabica, located on the ground floor of the Hotel, returns with a contemporary new look and coffee and dessert bar. Bold and neutral in its color scheme, the space houses marble furniture that echoes the octagonal shape of the conservatory. This will be the destination of bespoke coffee, specializing in single-origin beans and a selection of reimagined takes on childhood favorites, including an ever-changing variety of doughnuts and cupcakes.
The re-opening of the Hotel also welcomes The Study, an outdoor bar and lounge concept, on a terrace adjoining the Library and Cigar Lounge – a city favorite that maintains its beloved classic features while also serving a selection of cocktails, each with their own story to tell. The Study is inspired by that of Ernest Hemingway as a place of thought and reflection and reflects the palm trees and the sea outdoors. This outdoor space is yet another addition to the Hotel’s unique variety of dining outlets.
The completion of further enhancements will be announced later in 2020 and will include the refurbishment of a space previously held by Il Teatro, which will relaunch with a brand new concept by a celebrated Michelin star chef.
In addition to the city’s burgeoning arts scene, it will continue to host the Qatar International Food Festival taking place from March 20 to 30, 2020. The multicultural festival celebrates the country's diverse food, beverage, and hospitality offerings as well as invites visitors to enjoy special culinary experiences in scenic outdoor spaces. Four Seasons Hotel Doha will host its very own celebration, World of Nobu, on March 25 and 26, 2020. Celebrating Chef Nobu’s long and personal journey to becoming a global sensation, nine head chefs from Nobu restaurants around the world, including himself, will unite for two days of gastronomic events.
Guests can enjoy 25 percent off the Hotel’s Room Rate when booking stays at least 21 days in advance.
