HOTEL REVIEW: MARSA MALAZ KEMPINSKI, THE PEARL – DOHA

Marsa Malaz Kempinski, The Pearl  – Doha : A splurge worthy hotel that will satisfy your fantasies of far-flung Arabian luxury

Doha is a place filled with huge wealth and ridiculously over the top luxury experiences. It’s one of the favoured playgrounds of the rich elite and UHNWI’s (ultra high net worth individuals) in pursuit of the finer things in life.

There’s no point of coming to Doha and staying in a luxury hotel when you can experience a hotel that excels in ultimate luxury in one of Doha’s most sought after locations. Enter the Marsa Malaz Kempinski , The Pearl –  a splurge worthy hotel for luxury seekers.

We wish we could adequately convey how luxurious this hotel is. As Arabia Food and Travel so eloquently puts it, the hotel is a ‘tribute to the luxury of days gone by, an architectural showpiece that reflects the traditional warmth of its Arabic heritage combined with the classical grace of European style’. The Marsa Malaz Kempinski sets the benchmark for luxury in Doha.

Idea

An ultra-luxury hotel on Doha’s iconic man-made island.

Location

With it’s gigantic horse and audacious opulence, The Marsa Malaz Kempinski  is located on it’s own private man made Island with 150 meters of private beach. It’s location is like no other in the Middle East.  

Atmosphere

Imagine if you will, a hotel of unabashed opulent luxury with unrivalled views over the Arabian gulf.  An island of pure relaxation where you can can happily submit to letting others do everything for you. Require your luggage unpacked or a bubble bath drawn? Your butler will take care of that. Relaxing by the pool and need a new fluffy towel or a refill of you drink? Consider it done, by a smiling and happy attendant no less.

Here you can put aside all your cares in the world, knowing that you only have to eat, rest, maybe read a little,  eat again, sleep and repeat. You could spend days here on the sun loungers in a sun stroked, semi conscious and blissful state. It’s a place to rest and play.

Rooms

The vast rooms, with their marble appointed bathrooms are all exquisite. We’re going to let the pictures below do the talking on this one and just say you’ll feel like royalty staying here – especially since they all come with a butler. Oh and that all rooms have a private balcony or terrace where you can enjoy the sea breeze.

Amenities

This is a high class island that offers the best everything. Think outdoor swimming pools, water sport facilities, a yacht jetty, tennis courts, more first class restaurants than most English cities.  If you don’t want to leave during your stay don’t have to, the hotel provides everything and more that you will ever need or want.

Food

The Marsa Malaz Kempinski has become a culinary destination in it’s own right. Think world class, award winning chefs creating an array of mouth watering dishes from cuisines all over the world. In the mood for simple Italian food, Japanese artistry, Pan-latin or maybe some Iberian? This hotel has it all.

In the Know

The Marsa Malaz Kempinski have also made brunch a thing in Doha. Make sure you make time to celebrate the weekend at one of the hotels 5-star brunch experiences (would you expect anything less). We love the Thursday BBQ brunch at Amwage – think delicious grilled meats and sweet treats. The Toro Toro brunch is equally good, offering a selection of Pan Latin favourites as well as Toro Toro’s signature mouth-watering churrasco grill.
