Staybridge Suites Doha Lusail develops booming commercial area

Staybridge Suites Doha Lusail, a brand of InterContinental Hotels Group and owned by Al Sraiya Hotels & Hospitality, opened in February 2019 and has seen since then a rapid growth as it closes on its second year of operations.


As the first hotel in Lusail, housing 119 fully furnished apartments for short and long stays, Staybridge Suites Doha Lusail has been an integral part of the constantly progressing business district of Lusail City.

The biggest success of the hotel in 2020 is the expansion of the commercial area located at the ground floor of the establishment. A total of three commercial outlets have recently opened its doors in the area namely: Beauty Formula Lounge, North Café and Tawle Lebanese Eatery.

Beauty Formula Lounge opened in late 2019 offering luxury and state-of-the-art beauty services. They are the first in Qatar to specialise in microblading, micropigmentation, brows and lash lift. Mariane Ayoub, owner of the salon, is herself certified in microblading and micropigmentation, works to enhance the natural beauty of every woman by creating fuller and better shaped eyebrows, semi-permanent eyeliner and lip blush as well as lash lifts that are fit for the client’s face shape.

North Café started serving specialty coffees for the Qatari taste with a Japanese touch at Staybridge Suites Doha Lusail in mid-2020. Jabor Almannai, owner of North Café, expresses that the inspiration for the brand comes from the art of coffee making and coffee shop atmospheres he experienced in his many travels to Japan. Their best sellers are the North Signature Latte, Filtered Coffee and their Matcha that they source directly from Japan and is guaranteed to be organic and all natural.

Tawle Lebanese Eatery is the latest addition to the commercial destination, setting the table for your culinary gateway to Lebanon. “Tawle”, which means ‘table’ in Arabic, is the main theme of the restaurant which showcases a long table surrounded by comfortable lounge chairs designed to give off the feel of a cosy dining experience at home. Elie Akoury, Hospitality Consultant for the restaurant, shares that each dish features the tastes of Lebanese cuisine with their own special Tawle Twist.

The commercial area of Staybridge Suites Doha Lusail has already gathered crowds and visitors on a daily basis. “We have big plans for the commercial area of our hotel so expect to see more developments in the near future. We aim to be the ultimate destination in Lusail and we are currently working on many things, particularly we are focused on a special and unique project that we’re excited to introduce to Qatar very soon.” says Soha Zahar, General Manager of Staybridge Suites Doha Lusail.

It is now easier than ever to visit Staybridge Suites Doha Lusail as the Legtaifiya Red Line Metro Station opened this year which currently allows visitors to use the complementary pilot ride-sharing feeder service, Metro Express, that can travel directly to the hotel. The Marina Tram Station is also expected to open soon which is just a crossing road distance from the establishment and is connected to the Red Line Metro Rail.
