Alwadi Hotel Doha, part of Accor’s MGallery collection, gives you a stylish, central base at a gentler price than the big luxury names. It stands on the corner of Wadi Musheireb and Jassim Bin Mohammed Street in Msheireb Downtown, steps from Souq Waqif and a short walk from Msheireb metro station, so the souq, the Msheireb Museums and the Corniche are all within easy reach. The design draws on the area’s heritage with a contemporary touch. Places to eat and drink include Ibn AlBahr for Lebanese seafood, Le Colonial for breakfast, O’Glacée by the pool and the AtTeatude lobby café, while the Infinity Rooftop Lounge is the place for an evening drink above the city. There is an outdoor pool, the M Spa and the M Fit gym, and many connecting rooms for families. The airport is about fifteen minutes by car.
Living in it: this is the most practical mid-range base for a first visit, with the souq for dinner and the metro for the museums. The rooftop is a good spot at sunset.
Trade-offs: it is a city hotel without a beach, and the surrounding streets are busy. Facilities are smaller than in the big resorts, but the location makes up for it.
