Advantages: 5* service, excellent food, clean big rooms with seating areas Disadvantages: None
The service at this hotel was amazing. As soon as we got there, people took care of our luggage without even asking us.
The food was amazing, they had everything on offer set up as a buffet, but with the most amazing food selection: you could choose anything for breakfast from eggs and cerial to sushi and salads, lunch was a selection of local specialities and western dishes and dinner was like you're dining at a really posh expensive restaurant. The selection of wines was also excellent, considering it's in Doha, which is quite a traditional place.
The hotel has it's own beach with lounging chairs. I didn't get to see the gym (I was on holiday lol) but a friend said he was really surprised with the facilities. Apparently they had every concievable machine. They also have an outdoor heated pool if you don't like the whole ...
Advantages: Clean, loads of seating areas, all flights were on time Disadvantages: Could maybe have some more food lounges

There are lots of toilet facilities including disabled toilets and mother and baby changing rooms.
There are prayer rooms located in ...
Advantages: ?? Disadvantages: Hardly any shops in Duty Free... No photography allowed.
Qatar (Doha International Airport is very small). The duty free gold inside is much more expensive than anything outside in the city and there are very few shops. There is no organised layout to the way people are taken to their flight and people may also get very mixed up with the flight boards changing irregularly and without notice. The toilets (men's) have holes in the floors downstairs but I think the upstairs toilets are better. While waiting for a flight, I also saw military aircraft flying over the airport quite often. Be aware that you are not allowed to photograph the airport or planes, for security reasons. I think they don't allow batteries because they had some kind of sign saying that they were not allowed just before the metal-detecor. Who knows?
You are also *NOT* allowed to take crystal into the country along ...
