The Retaj Al Rayan is past its best. The rooms are a good size and comfortable but just a little dated. There is only one restaurant, a buffet, which I didn’t think looked particularly appetising. Breakfast also looked a little tiered and luke warm. The swimming pool is fully covered which makes sense for this part of the world but... More

The Retaj is an Islamic hotel, not part of an international chain, so is dry. It is a great place though with friendly, helpful staff (although you shouldn't expect their urgency time frames to match yours!!). Rooms are spacious and comfortable with cable TV with a good range of international channels including Sky News which makes a change from Al-Jazeera.... More

We stayed here for a layover on a Qatar Airlines flight. The hotel has a van to and from the airport that leaves every 30 minutes. Check in was smooth and they provided a tasty buffet dinner when we arrived. Our room was a standard hotel room with standard amenities. It was clean. In the morning we left early -... More

Being economy class we were not expecting such luxury so were very surprised to get a complete suite. As it was Qatar day we were extremely late getting to the hotel, because every man in the...

I stayed there for 6 days for business and enjoyed a lot. As usual, you can do anything without car in Doha. It's so close 3 min. to City Center Mall by taxi. Wired internet in rooms. But internet connection is slow. 3 meals open buffet. No alcohol in the restaurant or in the minibar. More
