Raffles Doha launches the luxurious Raffles Summer Retreat, with special suite stays and half-board inclusions
Raffles is a brand known across the globe for its regal luxury, operating some of the world’s most iconic properties, from its birthplace of Singapore to the majestic lakes of Udaipur. This summer, the historic brand invites guests into its opulent world at Raffles Doha with the ultimate Raffles Summer Retreat.
The experience takes guests on a journey of unrivalled sophistication and luxury, inviting them to enjoy unbeatable suite rates and experience breakfast and lunch or dinner alongside Raffle’s revered Butler service. Available from now until 30 September, the experience is priced at QAR 3,500 per night when staying in the hotel’s signature Urban Suites – the epitome of Arabian splendour with vast terraces, gleaming marble bathrooms, and separate living areas.
On top of enjoying complimentary breakfast, which is served in the luxury of your private suite or in bright seafront L’Artisan, guests will be able to enjoy a half-board package, with a choice of either lunch or dinner at one of Raffles Doha’s lauded restaurants. Reflecting the grandeur and prestige of the hotel, restaurants include Alba by Enrico Crippa – the second outpost for the three Michelin-starred chef – and Blue Cigar – an iteration of Raffles’ signature Writer’s Bar with 200 first-edition titles, rare cigars, and an elevated cocktail menu. The Summer Retreat offer also comes with free cancellation, giving guests peace of mind if plans change.
What’s more, Raffles Doha is also offering a romantic staycation for two packages, starting from QAR 5,000 per night, allowing couples to celebrate, connect and unwind this summer. Couples can enjoy a delightful stay with a sumptuous breakfast served complimentary in the suite and a generous QAR600 of dining credit – perfect for a romantic, in-suite dinner or evening in one of the hotel’s sublime restaurants. Additional exciting inclusions include a Mixology Class – the ideal chance to master a favourite tipple, a Cooking Class to bring the hotel’s culinary magic back home, an Instagram photo workshop to commemorate the memorable escape, and an exclusive luxury shopping experience. The enticing package also gives couples some much-deserved pampering with QAR1,000 spa credit to enjoy a rejuvenating treatment in the world-class Raffles Spa.
Housed in the striking Katara towers in the city’s sustainable Lusail district, Raffles Doha sets a new standard for luxury in the Qatari capital. The tone is set in the lobby, an avant-garde masterpiece with a soaring kaleidoscopic ceiling, and in the lifts – clad in sumptuous red velvet whisking guests away to floors lined with elegant suites. Urban Suites are mini palaces in themselves, with arched ceilings, mashrabiya details, walk-in complimentary boutiques, fragrance machines, and state-of-the-art suite technology. Themed suites include the duplex Parisian Suite – emulating the interiors of a Haussmann apartment with a private plunge pool and gym. Between dining and cooling off in the hotel’s serene seafront infinity pool and experiencing the delights of nearby Lusail, guests can enjoy Raffles Doha’s own red velvet cinema room – an ode to the Belle Époque.
Guests are also invited to enjoy Raffles Spa, leading the way for intimate wellness experiences with private spa suites complete with in-room pools and fitness suites. Guests can book an entire suite for a personalised day of relaxation or use the five-star facilities including a high-spec fitness suite, hydrotherapy areas, sauna, steam room, hammam, and plunge pools. After enjoying innovative treatments, guests can revitalise at the juice bar or enjoy haute-couture beauty treatments by Dr. Burgener Switzerland or the most decadent treatment for your hands and feet by the acclaimed Bastien Gonzalez.
