Al Messila, A Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, opened in Doha earlier this month as the first Luxury Collection property in Qatar. The resort is a short drive from Doha’s city center and Hamad International Airport.

“Doha today is a world-class city with a burgeoning arts and culinary scene, rooted in tradition and a rich heritage,” said Anthony Ingham, global brand leader, The Luxury Collection. “We are delighted to welcome Al Messila Resort & Spa to The Luxury Collection’s ensemble of hotels. True to our brand’s mission and informed by Qatar’s foresight and commitment to sustainability, Al Messila offers global explorers a palatial retreat in a lush haven, guiding our guests on transformative journeys that touch their spirits and enrich their lives.”

Al Messila Resort & Spa welcomes guests in the three-story lobby and lounge, with decor that mixes original Arabic design and modern opulence. Guests choose from more than 150 guestrooms and suites, including 30 premium villas with private pools, gardens and butler service.

The property boasts eight dining venues, including Snøull, a Nordic restaurant; Veritas, offering Northern Italian fare; Caravanserai, for Maghreb and European flavors; and Siga-Siga, a Greek eatery.

The on-site wellness facility is a female-only space with 26 treatment rooms, three therapy pools, floatation tanks, hammams, salt rooms, oxygen rooms and more.
