InterContinental Doha Beach & Spa

The desert has a beauty unlike any other during sunrise. It is, however, extremely hot in the day during summer, so the best time to see it is at night. Personally, I think the desert is at its most magnificent when bathed in a lunar glow. First-time and seasoned visitors alike can experience a sunrise desert safari. Departing from the hotel at dawn, take a thrilling ride in a 4x4 across the dunes, and watch the glorious sunrise as the sunlight slowly illuminates the golden sand. Private sunrise desert tours are subject to availability, please approach our Concierge desk located at the lobby of the hotel or email them in advance at concierge.icdoha@ihg.com.

In the afternoon, have a taste of authentic Arabian cuisine at the Al Mourjan Restaurant or Orient Pearl Restaurant on Al Corniche Street. The food will give you a sense of traditional Arabic cuisine here in Doha. After a hearty lunch, go and explore the Gold Souq or Souq Waqif for some souvenirs or special mementos from your trip to Qatar. Don't forget to test your bargaining skills at the shops! To book your tables in Al Mourjan or Orient Pearl in advance, please approach our Concierge desk located at the lobby or email them at concierge.icdoha@ihg.com.

As the sun sets, there really is only one place to be: by the sea. Take an evening cruise on a dhow by the Corniche and gaze upon the stunning skyline of Doha during sun set. Afterwards, go on a culinary journey in one of our award-winning restaurants at InterContinental Doha. Savour a taste of Tex-Mex, Greek, Belgian, international, Middle Eastern, Peruvian, and more. To know more about our award-winning restaurants, please approach our Food and Beverage Reservations desk located at the lobby or email them at fb.icdoha@ihg.com.
