Marsa Malaz Kempinski is located at The Pearl-Qatar, the unmistakable man-made island off the coast of Doha. It showcases the finest European architecture, combined with traditional Arab elements in all of its 281 luxurious rooms, including 69 suites, 2 Presidential suites and 2 Royal suites. The private beach reserved for guests is 150 metres long. From the exterior, the enchanted castle is a profusion of terraces, balconies, walkways, domes of all sizes, façades that advance and recede kaleidoscopically, a multi-faceted village with a medieval aura. The hotel boasts 37 domes that embellish and anchor the construction to the Arab tradition. Architect Ibrahim Mohamed Jaidah took his inspiration from two sources: the city of Venice (for centuries the fulcrum of trade between the Christian West and the Arab East) and the Arabian Deco style, very fashionable in the 1950s and 1960s, which introduced a series of new decorative motifs to the Gulf region.
