I had a lovely stay at this charming hotel located right in the bustling Souq Waqif. The rooms were spacious and offered a nice view of the market and Doha skyline, making it a very pleasant place to unwind. While the staff were incredibly accommodating, the noise levels from the live music and neighboring rooms were disruptive, which affected my sleep. Additionally, some details were overlooked by housekeeping, but overall, I enjoyed my time here along with the Lebanese cuisine at the restaurant.
