Sbe Mondrian Doha Marcel Wanders 00

A wonderful story unfolds around every turn in this contemporary classic hotel. The Mondrian Doha in Quatar is a 5-star destination designed by Marcel Wanders and operated by the global hospitality company sbe, drawing on local knowledge and exhibiting innovative materials and techniques. Each space possesses its own identity, allowing guests to form a collection of stories woven with a main theme that runs throughout. Bespoke designs and Marcel Wanders' signature style combine to create a truly holistic, sensual and memorable experience. The iconic building is designed by SWA Architecture.

At Mondrian Doha Marcel Wanders' signature design language creates the most multi-layered sensory experience of any luxury hotel destination. 

“Many themes are layered in the hotel. With each individual space telling its own tale, guests have many different experiences, and therefore, weave for themselves a volume of stories to share,”
says Marcel.

Bespoke designs span from the hotel's lobby and restaurants to its royal penthouses, VIP units, bridal suites and premium and standard rooms, reflecting local patterns, Arabic writing, historic souks and falcons. Giant columns with golden eggs, falcon video art, ornate stained glass and intricate mosaic tiling inspire guests with feelings of nostalgia.

In the lobby, an oversized gold leaf bell with a crystal chandelier welcomes guests, while in the lounge, a surreal white forest is characterised by giant white Trees of Life. In the multipurpose hall, three colours adapt into intriguing atmospheres. The hotel features a world-class spa – an unparalleled journey combining health, beauty and wellbeing.

“Conceptually, we have married local culture with a modern design aesthetic to compile tales told from legends through sophisticated verses of poetry,” adds Marcel Wanders.
