St Regis and Vilebrequin collaboration? Yes, please!🐢🐢🐢
@stregisdoha has lots of sea turtles all scattered around the hotel and especially the beach area, all thanks to @vilebrequin who brought French riviera vibes to La Plage, the brasserie and around the pool. And during the nighttime, giant turtles were projected over the pool area!

📍Hamad International Airport, Qatar #purpurpurpur_eatinghabits

I’ve spent around a month in Qatar on different occasions, and this was my choice of hotels👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
Why Qatar is a paradise if you love a good hotel stay? The country has a huge selection of luxury brand new hotels all built for the occasion of FIFA world cup 2022! Besides that, the prices tend to be lower than for similar hotels in other places! So basically you can get the best of the world known hotels, the cream of the cream, with the exquisite services cheaper and in abundance.
So don’t restrict yourself and choose a hotel or two (or five) to experience various sides of Qatar: the beach culture, souq and the Downtown area, the futuristic Lusail or a shopping mall life.

Have you ever stayed in a hotel at the airport - with a pool?😱💦
If you have a chance to transit in Doha, you could stay right in the Hamad International airport!
The transit is organised very well, no customs or passport controls upon arrival whatsoever, so we quickly headed right to our Oryx Airport hotel close to the famous Teddy Bear.
It was very unusual to have a room view over the arrival zone but we loved it. The skincare they use there is the Rituals, one of my favorite brands, and the pool area was also very impressive.

You’d never say that this villa is in … Doha!
Katara Hills @katara.hills located on a green hill adjacent to the Katara cultural village is one of the most remarkable destinations in Qatar. Katara hills has only 15 villas located as a spiral of escargot down the hill – sounds super exclusive right?
Our two storey villa had a private pool and two floors. On the first floor we had a reception, a small kitchen and access to our pool, and the bedroom is located on the second floor (sadly, we didn’t have a bathroom here).
Breakfast is served in a separate building, and it’s also recommended to visit an Indian restaurant here if you like this cuisine!

Save for your future trip:
📍The Raffles @rafflesdoha
The Raffles hotel, a half of the iconic Katara towers. Rooms were super modern, with an iPad controlling the music in toons and the digital menu of the bathtub.
The interiors there were absolutely breathtaking both in our room and in the hotel public areas, starting from the kaleidoscopic lobby area with skies changing colour according to the daytime and up the breakfast area. I was honestly amazed that the hotel wasn’t flooded with tourists.
Come to the 36 floor and 37th floors to feel on the top of the world – the views from there are incredible!
And I’d suggest you have an afternoon tea here because it’s served on a Katara tower stand and Wedgewood tableware, with a not bad selection of sandwiches and desserts.
And moreover, for breakfast you can get the waffles in the shape of Katara towers. The buffet selection there is not large but you can order lots of hot food from the menu.
Kids club was a nice welcoming place with a little merry-go-round right inside, and make sure you explore the outside area as well with all the pools and views over the Promenade!

Save my guide to hotels in Qatar!
One of my recommendations would totally be: @mo_doha #purpurpurpur_hotels
Mandarin Oriental Doha is one of the best hotels you can stay in Qatar due to its splendid services, outstanding interiors and a very convenient location. We stayed in a Panoramic suite – but still, I didn’t expect to have such a fantastic balcony with a view!
The suite was so big that it could easily be an apartment, and just have a look at our bathroom – it feels more like a private pool. We got some welcome treats like fresh fruits, moon cakes to celebrate the mid autumn festival and traditional dates, and George received a super cute camel.
Breakfast area is vast, with a selection of local and international dishes. The pool of MO overlooking the Msheireb, a historical district of Doha, and the services of the hotel are exceptionally good.
