DOHA: Qatar is becoming a leading destination as it expands its tourism proposition, in line with Qatar’s National Vision 2030. Its tourism strategy puts the visitor at the heart of all new programmes and initiatives.
In this regard, Qatar Tourism recently attended ILTM Cannes 2021 with a strong Qatari delegation, to profile the new tourism projects and luxury offerings in the country. As part of the ‘Qatar Tourism Strategy 2030’, the country has added a variety of exciting experiences, including a wave of new luxury hotels, theme parks, shops and major leisure projects, that have recently opened, or are set to open in the lead up to the Fifa World Cup Qatar 2022TM.
Over 100 new hotels and serviced apartments are currently under construction which will add to Qatar’s already extensive portfolio of properties.
Some of the new properties include a Raffles Hotel and Fairmont Hotel and Resort at Katara Towers, Rosewood Doha and the St Regis Marsa Arabia Island.
The hotels will broaden Qatar’s appeal to high value travelers, offering more choice to its existing 80 five and four star hotels.
Says Berthold Trenkel, Chief Operating Officer of Qatar Tourism: “We are continuing to expand our tourism offering and are excited to introduce guests to the best of Qatari hospitality. In 2019, we saw over two million visitors to Qatar and we hope to see similar growth trends now that we are welcoming visitors back to the country again.”
