Rotana, a leading hotel management company in Middle East and North Africa, is set to open the 400-room Oryx Rotana, the first hotel under its management in Qatar this year.

Oryx Rotana is situated close to Doha’s International airport and minutes away from the city centre, allowing easy access to the hub of the conference, entertainment and shopping facilities of Doha.

Specially designed for ultimate comfort and convenience, the 400-room Oryx Rotana will be presenting its guests a subtle blend of retro and modern designs accompanied by warm Arab hospitality to create the perfect lodging experience for both business and leisure visitors, said a senior official.

”We are delighted to get this project underway as it marks the beginning of a long and close relationship that we wish to share with the people and visitors of Doha,” said Joseph Coubat, area vice president - Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Lebanon. “We look forward to managing yet another Rotana member, while delivering premium hospitality. It also marks our foray into the hospitality industry, where we plan to extend our presence to operating multiple properties in the coming years.”

"Oryx Rotana will cater largely to business travelers and offer the latest high-tech facilities including nine fully-equipped meeting rooms with the most up-to-date audio-visual equipment, two ballrooms and a dedicated professional team on hand to aid in hosting business events and meetings," he added.

The hotel will present an ideal combination of services for business and leisure travel so that guests can find just the right balance between work and play.

Alongside the high-tech meeting facilities, innovative leisure services such as a fully-fledged fitness center, jacuzzi, steam room, sauna, swimming pool, and massage rooms, will be providing guests the ultimate spaces to unwind and stay fit.

Kevork Deldelian, general manager of Oryx Rotana, said, "We recognize the modern day business travelers’ needs and their value for time and so we present them with an exceptional experience by providing a perfect blend of superior business solutions and paramount leisure services, creating the ideal business environment."

"What better way to unwind after a long flight or full day of meetings than to enjoy a drink or dine at one of our signature restaurants or just recharge at the state-of-the-art fitness centre,” he quipped.

"The services to be offered at Oryx Rotana take into consideration today’s increasing value of time, and a team of outstanding experts will work on ensuring that guests will make use of every precious moment spent there," he added.

Rotana currently manages a portfolio of over 70 properties throughout the Mena region with an aggressive expansion plan in place.
