AFTER launching the Dusit Thani Abu Dhabi in the UAE, leading Asian hospitality group Dusit International announced their latest hospitality project at West Bay, in Doha, Qatar.
Slated to open in the last quarter of 2013 during the company’s year of expansion, the Dusit Residence and Suites Doha will be the first Dusit branded property in Qatar and its fifth in the Middle East.
Located in the heart of Doha’s diplomatic district overlooking the Doha Corniche, the iconic property offers views across the Arabian Gulf. The building’s proximity to the malls, Doha Exhibition Centre and the upcoming Doha International Conference and Exhibition Centre makes it appealing to both short and long-stay guests travelling on leisure or business.
“This announcement clearly demonstrates our commitment to expand the Dusit portfolio on a global basis, and our strategic plan to establish and strengthen our presence in key gateway cities, particularly within the Middle East,” says Dusit International regional director of development – Europe, Middle East and Africa, Andrew Shaw.
“Qatar offers enormous potential and is a significant market for Dusit,” he continues. “This is an exceptional property which fits well into Dusit’s portfolio. The property will set new standards in terms of product quality and levels of service within the vicinity, and it’s positioned to meet the exacting requirements of today’s corporate and leisure traveller.”
Dusit International is actively seeking luxury hotel and serviced residence management opportunities within the region, with a focus on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Oman, and to further solidify its presence within the United Arab Emirates where it has been operating for over a decade.
