Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, which features about 9,000 hotels across nearly 95 countries, continues to strengthen its presence across the Middle East with the opening of the 278-key Wyndham Grand Doha West Bay Beach in Doha, Qatar.

The managed hotel opens in collaboration with leading regional hospitality development entity, Hala Real Estate Development Company and underscores Wyndham’s commitment to bolstering its offering in the region, which includes a development pipeline of 27 hotels.

Conveniently located just 500m from the City Centre Doha Mall and 600 metres from the DECC metro station, Wyndham Grand Doha West Bay Beach is the closest beachfront hotel in the prestigious West Bay area. The hotel is also within walking distance of various corporate, government and leisure establishments in the West Bay area.

Business travellers can utilise the property’s six spacious corporate meeting rooms, which have the combined capacity to host close to 350 people.

Wyndham Grand is an ensemble of distinguished hotels that are approachable by design, representing one-of-a-kind experiences with refined accommodation, attentive service and relaxed surroundings. The opening of Wyndham Grand Doha West Bay Beach adds to other top destinations around the world where the brand can be found, including Manama, Istanbul, Athens, Chicago, Shanghai and many others.

Wyndham Grand Doha West Bay Beach is the latest addition to Wyndham’s portfolio of three operational hotels in Qatar, and two further properties under development.

We have a fantastic team on board with us who are ready to welcome our guests and offer the highest standards and values Wyndham Grand is known for. Qatar is in the spotlight this year with FIFA World Cup 2022™ and all I have to say is we are ready.

“Qatar is known for its thriving and sustainable economic plans, and we are confident that years to come will have even more success stories to tell. The journey of opening a new hotel is always an exhilarating experience, and to see it from up-close, breathing in life to concrete and stones to transform a building into a place where everyone can belong and enjoy, it's truly amazing. Given the location and the facilities, we expect Wyndham Grand Doha West Bay Beach to be popular with our guests. ‘’
