PB hotel design editorial

Two sweeping towers that curve away from each other like sails catching opposing winds, the Katara Towers on Lusail's waterfront were designed by Hadi Teherani Architects to evoke the crescent moon — a form with deep resonance in Islamic culture and in Qatar's national symbolism. Raffles Doha fills the taller of the pair, a 36-floor structure whose organic profile, visible in the exterior image at dusk, generates floor plates of constantly shifting geometry. That curvature is felt most directly from the pool terrace, where the building's glass facade sweeps overhead in a continuous arc, and from the sky bar, where raked floor-to-ceiling glazing frames the Lusail skyline at an oblique angle, the interior furnished with cane-backed lounge chairs, rounded teak tables, and pendant lamps in darkened metal. The interiors move between two registers: some rooms apply a contemporary palette — herringbone oak parquet, deep teal velvet headboards, blush organic-form sofas, and large-format abstract wall murals in terracotta and blue — while the Raffles suites lean into a more ornate vocabulary, with deeply coffered plasterwork ceilings carrying arabesque relief patterns, arched openings framing the balcony view, and wall panels finished in gilded geometric tilework drawn from Mamluk and Andalusian craft traditions. The contrast is deliberate, giving the hotel's 132 rooms and suites a range of atmospheres within the single dramatic shell Teherani conceived for Lusail's emerging marina district.

"My stay at Raffles Doha was truly one of the most memorable luxury hospitality experiences I’ve had. From the moment I arrived, the warmth, attention to detail, and personalized care from the entire team made me feel genuinely welcomed. Every interaction reflected the elegance and refined hospitality that Raffles is known for. The suite experience, the breathtaking views of the iconic Katara Towers, the beautiful birthday arrangements, and the overall ambience made this stay incredibly special for me. What stood out most was how thoughtfully the team handled every detail with such grace and professionalism. As a public figure, I especially appreciated the comfort, privacy, and smooth hospitality throughout my stay, which allowed me to fully relax and enjoy my time peacefully without any disturbance. A very special thank you to Abhishek, Marilu, and Mr. Marcio Bastos for their exceptional hospitality, kindness, and care throughout my stay. They truly made me feel at home and treated me like family, which made the entire experience even more meaningful and unforgettable. I also loved the warmth and affection from the team throughout my stay. I was also deeply touched by all the thoughtful gestures, complimentary experiences, beautiful dining moments, and the wonderful suite upgrades including the Crescent Signature Suite and Presidential Suite experience, which made my birthday celebration even more memorable. A heartfelt thank you as well to the Butler Team, Front Office, and the entire Raffles Doha team for creating such a beautiful and unforgettable stay for me. Raffles Doha is not just a hotel — it is an experience of timeless luxury, elegance, and genuine hospitality. Looking forward to returning again soon. — Roshni Kapoor"

"We had a very pleasant and comfortable stay at Raffles Doha. The hotel is beautiful, peaceful, and the team made us feel very well taken care of. A special thank you to Zakariae from the Concierge team. He was very kind and helpful, especially with our Al Maha departure arrangements. He noticed an issue with our booking and helped to follow up, which made our departure much smoother and gave us real peace of mind. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would be happy to come back again."
