DoubleTree by Hilton Doha - Al Sadd

Overall stay is good, people are polite. Recommend to stay for business traveler.

Completed several stays here in March-April and it's definitely gotten worse in terms of facilities - the only one really being the pool. Initially, there were two sun loungers by the pool (already not too many), but in April the pool bar (independently owned) completely took over - loungers were removed, ugly black-draped Iftar service tables installed, tables added to occupy all of the area. If you show up at pool opening time (6 am), there are some napkins and water bottles around and inside the pool. At 4 pm, the manager (?) of the bar shows up with service staff, they start talking loudly and moving the furniture around, making something that's already uncomfortable even more hard to bear - in spite of the pool allegedly open until 6 pm. Very annoying to say the least. Music from the same bar is clearly audible inside the rooms facing it, too, which may be a nuisance at night. Otherwise the hotel is quiet, rooms are ok, with the exception of most shower doors that don't close tightly and, opening to the outside of the cabin, let out a lot of water that stays on the floor. It's not a bad hotel but there are minimal amenities and the above issues must be addressed for it to be highly recommended for the price.
