Heavily inspired by Mughal architecture and features elements of Ottoman heritage, the Chedi Katara Hotel & Resort, Doha is scheduled to open in November 2022. Owners General Hotel Management enlisted design firm WATG to create something that incorporates old and new Arabic influences – and the lobby lounge makes quite a statement. Reminiscent of a Mughal courtyard, the 10m high ceiling and walls are adorned by original Mughal and Indian-inspired artworks alongside Ottoman- influenced tapestries.
Sandwiched between desert and sea, the hotel will offer 59 rooms and suites and 32 villas with five dining options to savour: The Restaurant, The Lobby Lounge, The Cigar Lounge, The Beach Club and Marsa Katara.
