Hilton Salwa Beach Resort & Villas

An Arabian Nights-themed hotel. Excellent breakfast, amazing dinner, a choice of 20-30 meat dishes. Everything is divided by cuisine: Indian, European, etc. The staff is very helpful. We went there from the water park. While the hotel is a 5, the water park is a 3. The slides are so-so, there's bird droppings everywhere, and the worst part is the cold water. The room is large, the bathroom is clean.

A decent hotel 100 km from Doha. Clean, new, and very uniquely designed and decorated. Excellent breakfasts, a fabulous Arabic restaurant. Otherwise, there are some serious issues: 1. The hotel's navigation is literally nonexistent. You have to walk for miles to find your room. The staff is clueless and doesn't understand what's expected of them. 2. The beach. In the evening, at low tide, the beach turns into a dirty, silted-up children's pool. As soon as you swim out beyond the beach line, a lifeguard immediately paddles up in a kayak and nags you that you can't go there because there are water sports. Water Sports, by the way, is SAR. 3. The Italian restaurant is a disaster. A catastrophe. Absolutely everything is bad: the service, the food, the atmosphere, the service... And that nightmare in the photo, they call it a Ribeye... Avoid that scam if possible.
