Think of it, I had never even spared a thought about what this country has to offer to a tourist. The information I got surely is no less than a surprise package to me, a awakening call to look beyond the obvious.
Qatar has been having a number of tourists visit the place, some to enjoy its beauty and learn about the country and some to experience the adventurous sports this country has to offer. Most prominent of all places among Qatar is the Doha city, thanks to the Doha Asian Games hosted here. This city which was initially called as Al-Bida has a number of beaches where one can enjoy sports games at leisure. Al Ruwais, Al Wakra are some of the other places that one must visit when on a trip to Qatar.
A stay at Qatar is most obvious when you want to experience the country at its best. There are a variety of options that the tourists can resort to when at Qatar like hotels, resorts etc. Qatar sees a number of business tourists year over year. Hence their accommodation is takes care of with all facilities that an executive may need.
One prominent name among hotels is the Doha Mariott Hotel, The rooms here are extremely spacious and well maintained. The hospitality offered will be the best in the country. They even have rooms set aside for executives that come with their own advantages. Attracting tourists being their main aim, they offer a number of stay packages for the benefit of the customers. You can take advantage of one of these offers to make the most of you money and time.

Its proximity to the most lively city in Qatar is another major advantage that draws the tourists here. The rooms are equipped with world class amenities and the tourist will be left with no reason to complain.
A vast number of these hotels are owned by the Qatar National Hotels Company. The activities in all these hotels are well co-ordinated since they fall under the same umbrella. In fact, the Sheraton Doha Resort and Convention Hotel is one of the locations handled by them. This is like a one stop shop for all your needs.
