Overview

At the crossroads between desert calm and lively city streets, Al Messila a Luxury Collection Resort and Spa Doha offers scale and splendour. From the moment you arrive, there’s a quiet sense of grandeur, and come nightfall, the palace-like facade glints gold against the skyline. Step inside and you’re met with a vast, marble-clad lobby with lofty arches and shimmering accents. Upstairs, rooms are impressively spacious and immaculately kept. Days unfold beside the buzzing grand pool or in the expansive spa. There’s a wealth of facilities to enjoy, plus plenty of spots to drink and dine. This resort balances polished elegance with warm spirit, so both families and couples seeking an indulgent escape will feel equally at home.

While set slightly apart from Doha’s busy heart, the resort’s location is well placed for exploring. Deep dive into Qatari culture in the Souq Waqif, around four and a half miles away. Here, winding alleys are home to spice-laden stalls, cafes and iconic art. The palm-lined Doha Corniche curves along the waterfront just under five miles from the resort. It’s the perfect spot for an afternoon stroll or a traditional dhow cruise across the bay. For more cultural curiosities, the Museum of Islamic Art, National Museum of Qatar and Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art are all within a six-mile radius. Five miles away, the lush green grasses of Al Dafna Park provide an easy escape from the city. Meanwhile, those after sea and sand can venture out to Ras Bu Fontas Beach, 13.5 miles out. Doha International Airport is around eight miles away.

A palette of soft, sun-warmed neutrals set the tone in all rooms. Spaces lean into a sense of understated luxury, with buttery leather headboards, warm ambient lighting and creamy tones. Marble-lined bathrooms feel modern and serene, too. Floor-to-ceiling glass invites in views of the gardens, city skyline or grand central pool. Many rooms open out onto a shaded, furnished terrace – the perfect nook for your morning pour. Suites offer a stylish upgrade if you’re wanting more space. Choose between the Grand Deluxe or Signature, each with a kitchenette for laid-back meals and a plush separate lounge.

Step into the tranquil surrounds at Al Messila Spa and you’re a world away. Built around a natural oasis, this spa is one of the largest of its kind in the region. Home to 27 treatment rooms, eight treatment suites, a salon, a beauty clinic and a dedicated retail boutique, it’s bliss. Female guests can unwind in the extensive Ladies Wellness Retreat, while a separate six-room men’s zone provides massages, facials and tailored express treatments.

Over at the Al Messila Health Centre, light glints off the surface of the indoor heated pool. Bathed in natural light from the ceiling and vast windows, sleek loungers line the water’s edge. Just outside, the show-stopping Grand Pool awaits. Set against the resort’s palace-like facade, it’s dotted with palm islands, and surrounded by sunbeds and private cabanas. Complimentary beach access is also available with shuttles ready to whisk you to the sands. Complimentary shuttles also run to and from four top local attractions throughout the week, so you can explore beyond the resort.

Head back to the Al Messila Health Centre so you never miss a workout. Fully equipped with state-of-the-art cardio and strength training machines. Plus, there’s a fitness studio for group or personal sessions. Outdoors, follow one of two scenic jogging tracks that wind through the gardens or hit one of the three padel courts. Two indoor squash courts also await. You’ll even find an on-site shop for equipment or last-minute extras.

The Little Explorers' Kids Club is set in a bright, welcoming space where little ones can enjoy a mini-gym, engaging indoor play zones and a large outdoor playground. Each day features a roster of supervised activities, from movie sessions and crafting to treasure hunts. Budding chefs can even get creative in the MasterChef Food Lab.

Dining information

Deli Kitchen is the resort’s all-day dining space, where international favourites are reimagined with flair. Stop by for a light bite or a multi-course meal with buffet breakfasts, and a la carte lunches and dinners. For something more refined, Parisa offers a bold take on Persian cuisine. This contemporary space is perfect for long lunches, elegant dinners and Friday brunches. Spiced, delicate dishes and signature favourites are served in style. Meanwhile, over at Taj Rasoi, you’ll find all the colour of classic Indian fare, with an ever-changing array of deliciously crafted dishes. Expect fragrant curries, delicate breads and rich tandoori flavours in a quietly opulent setting.

Dressed in soft Arabian elegance, Al'amma sits just off of the lobby and works perfectly for leisurely sips. You’ll find freshly brewed coffee, tea infusions and flaky pastries on the menu here. Elixir is the resort’s resident cocktail lounge, offering a more intimate, moody feel. Linger in the afternoons and soft-lit evenings with a cocktail or something stronger. Poolside, Wa'ha is a casual terrace spot nestled in the botanical gardens. Order from a menu of international and Mediterranean light bites, paired with refreshing drinks – including non-alcoholic options.

Upgrade to half board or full board to enjoy dine-around dinners at the Deli Kitchen, Parisa and Taj Rasoi.
