Very basic and small hotel room. Strong cigarette smell. I needed to spend only few hours because of a transit so for the price it was ok for me. Best thing was free pickup and drop off at the airport.

Good location but terrible hotel

Cons Uncomfortable Bed and much smaller than the pictures Old furniture No towels in the bathroom. Have to call to get towels. Shower didn't work properly Weird black stuff coming out of the AC and falling on the bed AC was too loud No outlet to put in the iPhone plugs to charge phones Insect in the coffee provided at breakfast The reception ladies during the day don't understand English properly. Which is okay. However they were a bit weird. They showed me a pamphlet which had some places to visit but they wanted it back and wouldn't let me keep it. Pros Breakfast did look decent besides the insect in the coffee. Free pick and drop from the airport Good location next to Souq Waqif. The free museum of Islamic art is easily walkable.

OK hotel for the price, close to the Souq.

I stayed in a single room for 3 nights in September 2016. The quality is fair enough for the price they are asking. I will say that this is a 2 stars hotel. One negative aspect, for me, was the fact that, they didn't have hot water. No matter how much I phoned the reception, they were not able to provide with hot/warm water to shower, so showering in the morning, wasn't an option for me; I had to wait until mid day when it was very hot outside, to actually shower. The breakfast variety was just OK, nothing special, but "Joy" the Philippine lady who was in charge of the breakfast was very nice and attentive. (excellent customer service from Joy). A positive aspect is that the hotel is walking distance to the Souq (about 7 minutes walking), a medium size mosque was right beside the hotel making the area decent, safe, within limits and exceptions, of course. Also, about 12 minutes walking distance you have the Royal Palace of Doha and about 15 min walking distance you have the waterfront, with boat tours and Islamic Museum and more. So location was good.

Al-Nakheel Hotel: A+ for those on a budget!

I visited Doha for 5 nights - as a journalist, covering a major international sporting event. I needed a comfortable, safe, inexpensive, well located hotel. The Al-Nakheel met my requirements perfectly - and I look forward to staying there again. The FREE breakfast buffet was a nice benefit. All in all, I was treated very well.

１：空港送迎はテキパキと素晴らしい。２：フロントの対応も必要十分。３：客室はやや清潔感に欠ける感じ。４：朝食はブッフェで十分満足。５：旧市街の市場に近いので観光＆買い物には便利。６：ハードは古いがスタッフはしっかりしているホテル。７：今回は仮眠程度の利用だったのでこれで十分だったが、２泊以上するようであれば次回は他のホテルを選ぶかも。

Gute Lage, das war's aber auch schon.

Ich habe dieses Hotel nur gebucht, weil ich 20 Stunden Aufenthalt hatte und wenigstens ein paar Stunden schlafen wollte. Die Lage ist sehr zentral und für Doha relativ günstig, die sehr vielen negativen Bewertungen haben jedoch ihre Gründe: Zum einen wäre ein Hochdruckreiniger für eine Komplettreinigung angebracht, zum anderen ist generell eine Renovierung notwendig. Als Tipp für alle, die auch einen langen Aufenthalt haben: Bleibt am Flughafen, es gibt dort kostenlose Ruheräume mit Liegen, kostenloses WLAN, Fernseher, eine funktionierende Klimaanlage und die Toiletten sind sauberer als im Hotel.

Besenkammer als Hotelzimmer getarnt

Das Zimmer stand offen, als ich es bezog. Es war kaum breiter als das Bett, so dass Kleiderschrank, Kühlschrank und Nachttisch sehr kreativ angeordnet waren. Au der Wand schauten Nägel, wo offenbar zu einem früheren Zeitpunkt ein Regal hing. Die Klimaanlage war auf dem Geräuschpegel eines startenden Flugzeuges, der Kühlschrank knackte alle 20 Minuten, das Geräusch erinnerte mehr an eine kleine Explosion. Leider konnte der Kühlschrank weder abgeschaltet werden (kein Schalter) noch ausgestöpselt (keine Steckdose, sondern ein Wandanschluss). Im Badezimmer fanden sich ausgedrückte Zigarettenkippen im Fensterrahmen. Nicht zu sprechen von dem Baulärm von umliegenden Baustellen. Die Schiebetüren der Hotellobby funktionierten ebenfalls nicht und mussten von einem Hotelbediensteten per Hand aufgeschoben werden. Definitiv nicht wiederholenswert.

we emailer the hotel twice on the email listed on their website to arrange the free pickup from the airport. On arrival there was no one there and we had to pay for a taxi. On check in they told us that they no longer check that email. There was no apology or refund offered.

スークワキーフ近くの朝食がおいしいホテル

ドーハの主要観光スポットであるスークワキーフまで徒歩で５－６分ですが、スークの中は迷路のようで、ホテルへの道に迷ってしまい、スーク内のお店の人に聞いてやっと帰れたので、特に夜は注意が必要かもしれません。すぐ裏手にモスクがあり、１日５回のお祈りの声が響きます。現在そのそばで工事中の建物があり、２４時間休みなく作業していたため、騒音がひどくほとんど眠れませんでした。 シングルルームは広くなく、シャワールームのタイルの目地がカビだらけだったのが気になりましたが、とりあえず１泊するだけなら、許容範囲です。無料の朝食バイキングはたいへんボリュームがあり、卵料理やヨーグルトも頼めます。無料Wifiも問題なくつながり、なんといっても、空港への無料送迎付きがうれしいサービスです。ホテルスタッフも親切でフレンドリーでした。
