This is a lovely hotel to stay in. All I would say is to arrange your own transport to and from the airport as it is very expensive if you arrange the hotel to collect you.

We had a wonderful stay at Central Inn. The staff are friendly and efficient. Location is great - within walking distance to many sites, restaurants and shops. The internet was inconsistent but was on more than off. We would stay here again.

This is a lovely hotel. The staff was very helpful. We ate in the restaurant in the hotel and the food was good. We were there for a few hours during a 10hr layover just long enough to eat,shower and catch a few hours sleep. I would stay there again.

I stayed at Central Inn Souq Waqif during my recent trip to Doha, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice—especially for travelers who want both comfort and convenience without breaking the bank. The location is unbeatable. Just a few minutes’ walk from the lively Souq Waqif, it gave me easy access to all the sights, smells, and sounds of traditional Qatari culture. Whether I wanted to shop for souvenirs, explore the market’s winding alleyways, or grab a bite of local food, everything was right there. The room was clean, spacious, and surprisingly well-equipped for a mid-range hotel. The bed was very comfortable, the AC worked perfectly (which is essential in Doha’s heat!), and I appreciated the reliable Wi-Fi. It’s not a luxury hotel, but it delivers exactly what you need for a relaxing stay. One big plus was the friendly staff—always polite and helpful. They assisted me with directions, arranged transport when I needed it, and offered great local recommendations. Overall, Central Inn Souq Waqif is a great choice for travelers looking for affordability, comfort, and a prime spot in the heart of Doha. I’d definitely stay here again!

This hotel has a good position close to the souk and the underground. But it’s not possible to close properly the windows so during the night it’s noisy. I was there with friends and also their windows were badly closed. Staff is nice.
