Kempinski announced that its much-anticipated flagship resort, Marsa Malaz Kempinski, The Pearl – Doha, is set to welcome its first guests on December 1, 2014. Marsa Malaz Kempinski will be the European luxury hotel company’s second hotel opening in Qatar and seventh in the Gulf, with two more hotels in the Middle East scheduled to open in the coming year. The city-resort is located on its own secluded island at the iconic The Pearl-Qatar and is the first ultra-luxury hotel in one of Doha’s most sought-after locations. It offers 281 luxurious rooms and suites, and meeting-conference facilities, including a Grand Ballroom, measuring 1,100 sq m (11,538 sq ft), ideal for VIP delegations or weddings. Marsa Malaz Kempinski also features an exclusive beach located in a private bay, along with outdoor swimming pools, water sports facilities, the 3,000 sq m (32291.7 sq ft) Spa by Clarins, a tennis court and yacht jetties.
As one of the most inspiring hotels in the region, Marsa Malaz Kempinski will offer multiple dining and entertainment options for all guests upon completion early next year. Visitors can select from six different types of restaurants, two cafés, al fresco beach-side dining, a sophisticated lounge and a unique rooftop lounge with large open-air terraces.
Located in the heart of Qatar’s capital Doha, Marsa Malaz Kempinski is only a ten-minute drive from West Bay, the central business district, and a 30-minute drive from the new Hamad International Airport. The new resort is also near to numerous entertainment and shopping options at the Porto Arabia and Medina Centrale districts of The Pearl-Qatar, as well as in close proximity to Katara Cultural Village, Doha Golf Club and Lagoona Mall.
