The Marsa Malaz Kempinski, The Pearl - Doha, is set to soft-open on 1 December this year with outdoor swimming pools, water sports facilities, yacht jetties and an upcoming Spa by Clarins.

The 281-bedroom city resort, located on its own island at the iconic The Pearl - Qatar, features a 3,000sq m (32,292sq ft) Spa by Clarins, which is set to open in Q1 of 2015. This wellness facility includes 23 treatment rooms, a laconium, saunas and steamrooms in addition to relaxation areas and female and mixed-gender plunge pools.

There is also an Athletics Club which comprises female and mixed-gender exercise studios, male and female wet relaxation lounges, male and female saunas and steamrooms plus herbal baths and steambaths.



The Beach Club on-site will make use of the 150m (492ft) private beach and will include outdoor pools and provide water sports for guests.

In addition to meeting space, the Kempinski has a 1,100sq m (11,840sq ft) Grand Ballroom for VIP delegations and weddings.

Visitors will be able to choose from a range of six restaurants, two cafés, al fresco beach-side dining and rooftop lounge dining venues.

This property will be the Kempinski group’s second hotel in Qatar, and seventh in the Gulf. There are two more planned for the Middle East, scheduled to open in the coming year.
