Treffen House Doha - Souq Waqif and next to Msheireb Metro Station

The location was quite close to the markets however a lot of dust and Construction on every side with the local Street being rather and clean and unsafe feeling

There is a lot of construction in the area, but then again it's all over Doha so I don't think it matters much where you stay. The great thing about this hotel is that it's a short walk to the Souq Waqif so there are plenty of places to eat. The hotel only serves buffets, which is not my favorite and it's a bit overpriced. So eat elsewhere but stay here! The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was large, clean, comfortable, and safe. It may need some updates, but I don't want to pay for updating a perfectly good room. It suited me just fine.

Location is perfect. Nearby constructions is bit noisy. Breakfast is fantastic. Overall good hotel

Staff very obliging and friendly. The surrounding area is being redeveloped so it is below par.

Well maintained hotel with good amenities, only the concern was constructions in the surroundings..

When I landed in Doha, I had a bit of difficulty in locating the hotel. Anyway once I found the hotel, I was impressed. Friendly and welcoming staff but not overbearing which is important. They knew how to strike the balance between being welcome but allowing guests personal space which is how it should be. Reception was based on the 2nd floor with a highly efficient workforce who took care of every detail of mystay. They also has fresh apple and orange juice next to reception for guests. This was the perfect way to start the and end the day. they also had free toffee sweets which were an added bonus and one which I took more than my fair share of. ( sorry ). The hotel had three, yes three restaurants. they served a breakfast buffet on the ground floor which was 65 qar. Lunch and dinner were charged at 95qar each but to be honest if you chose to have the breakfast buffet, that would pretty much set you up for the whole day. Room was large and wifi connection fairly good. Room service was provided but could benefit from a revamp with more options. Wash facilities top notch but they should provide decent quantities of shower gel and shampoo instead of the tubes they provide which were extremely small. the city centre is about 5 miles away but is close to the souq waqif so dining options aplenty. Nightclub could do with a revamp so that its up to the standard of other popular places such as Fahrenheit at the horizon manor hotel. Money well spent on quality accommodation.

Overall it was good. Staff are excellent and very cooperative. Being a vegetarian food was a problem in the hotel otherwise a good experience

Staying at the Mercure was one of the reasons we enjoyed our trip to Qatar. First impressions can be misleading. The building is let's say a little dated -clearly it was the future once but has been down graded from its previous status as a Sofitel. It's right next to a major construction site - an interchange on the new metro is being built on its doorstep. But several things made us feel very fond of place 1. The staff - without exception excellent. Helpful, attentive yet never intrusive or overbearing. We were given an upgrade to a 'Privilege' room and when we quibbled with it, we were moved to a larger room of the same standard with no fuss whatsover. The restaurant service was great, the porter and concierge always welcoming and the reception staff sorted out our trip to the desert. The staff really make the place. 2 . The swimming pool - the temperature in the outdoor pool is bracing but it was never busy and open to 8pm 3. The location - just a short walk to the superb Souq Waqif with its excellent restaurants and shops, not far - i.e. Just walkable in the heat - from the MIA and the Corniche Great view of the West Bay towers from the small balcony The restaurant has a good wine selection, there is a minibar in the room but we didn't go in to the bar with our young child so can't review that When the metro is complete the location will be unbeatable -and construction noise even now is not enough to disturb sleep. Just the dawn call to prayer...recommended!

Hotel conveniently situated for the Souk Waquif, Sheiks Palace, Corniche and MIA possible to walk if you are used to the heat but a quick and inexpensive trip by taxi if not. It is currently situated in an area that is being redeveloped but can say that construction noise was minimal and certainly heard none from my room which overlooked the sites. Visit took place during Ramadan and the staff were very helpful and considerate to all faiths. A good range of food on offer for breakfast with staff very polite and eager to please. A nice pool area. A good clean room with TV, Tea and coffee making capability, mini refrigerator and effective air con.

Currently most guests are from the adjacent construction site.
