The news comes off the back of The St. Regis Doha winning the ‘GCC Hotel of the Year’ Award at the 2016 Food and Travel GCC Awards in Bahrain, with the luxury Hotel currently boasting 13 award wins in 2016.
At the World Travel Awards 2016 held in Peru on July 1, 2016, Astor Grill, the famed grill and steakhouse was awarded Qatar’s Best Restaurant.

The St. Regis Doha’s Remède Spa is most visited for its 22 private treatment rooms, complete with the best quality products along with the Recreation Centre that features state-of-the-art equipment and highly qualified personal trainers.
These recent accolades are a proud addition to The St. Regis Doha’s successful year, which has already won five Time Out Doha Awards, three Fact Magazine Awards and three Food and Travel GCC Awards in 2016 for a number of its renowned restaurants and lounges.
Among the awards won by The St. Regis Doha at the Time Out Doha Awards 2016 were Opal by Gordon Ramsay and The St. Regis Grand Brunch winning the Highly Commended Awards. While, Hakkasan Restaurant won two awards under the Best Chinese and Best Restaurant Category.
