Hotels in Qatar

Discover Qatar

If you have plans to travel to Qatar, keep in mind that the best time to do so is from November to March. During these months, the weather is ideal for outdoor exploration with temperatures ranging from 17 to 25°C. Cultural activities are at their peak, with art, music, and gastronomy festivals that allow you to immerse yourself in Qatari culture.

Sports enthusiasts will also find this period attractive, as Qatar hosts several international sporting events, from football to motorsports. But beware, if you decide to travel during this peak season, make your reservations in advance, as availability may be limited.

For those looking for more affordable rates, the months from April to October offer more accessible prices on flights and luxury hotels. However, be prepared for heat that can reach up to 45°C. During this season, availability is wider, but make sure you can withstand the high temperatures.

If your goal is to plan a trip to Qatar without spending too much, the key is anticipation. It is advisable to start looking at options between 3 and 6 months in advance of your planned date. Indeed, this Gulf country is not exactly cheap, and hotel rates, even the most luxurious ones, can increase significantly if you leave it until the last minute.

Now, as for specific tips to save money in this destination, it is important to mention "Stopover" packages. A "stopover" refers to a prolonged stop in an intermediate city during an international trip, allowing you to enjoy that city for more than 24 hours before continuing your journey. Several airlines offer flight plus hotel combinations in these packages at very attractive prices, allowing travelers to explore Doha during their layovers. However, these packages tend to sell out quickly, especially if there is a relevant event in the city, such as the Doha Film Festival.

If you decide to travel during the hot summer, you will find lower rates, but be prepared for temperatures that can reach 40°C. It is an option for the more adventurous or for those who want to enjoy more affordable luxury.

We recommend starting with Doha. Its skyline will enchant you. But beyond the modern architecture, don't miss visiting the Museum of Islamic Art, a gem both for its exterior and interior. Not far away, you will find the Souq Waqif, where you can immerse yourself in the local culture, smell the spices, and practice the art of bargaining.

If you are a sports enthusiast, the options are varied. From thrilling football matches to Formula 1 events at the Losail International Circuit. But, of course, it's not all about adrenaline. You also have the option to relax on the beaches of the north coast or venture into the Khor Al Adaid desert, known as the "Inland Sea".

In the cultural realm, we suggest visiting the Al Zubarah Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage site that will transport you to 18th-century Qatar. And if you like adventure, the sand dunes of Mesaieed offer you a 4x4 experience that you won't forget.

Finally, don't miss the opportunity to enjoy a sunset cruise on a dhow (traditional boat). It may not be the most popular activity, but it is one of those experiences that make a trip truly unforgettable.
