Notes: A long weekend was enough in Doha and the only thing I didn’t get to see because I was short on time was the Box Park.
Doha is walkable in the central areas but you should still download either the Uber or Karwa app in case you need it.
Everyone speaks English.
I stayed in the Four Seasons West Bay hotel and it was amazing.
Public transport is cheap but food is generally expensive so be prepared!

We're doing a long layover in Doha soon, and I was feeling a little nervous after hearing some negative things about the city. After watching this video, though, I am so excited! Thanks for sharing all the great info!

Doha is where Past and Future meet. Innovative, modern, traditional, all in one. I just came back from a 1 week stay there and cannot put down in words how fantastic it was. If you are reading this comment and have interest in visiting Qatar, just go there, it is REALLY worthy a visit, you will be amazed!

Can't wait my first holiday after anxiety disorder treatment almost 5 years. See you Doha this October

I have been to Doha a few times for 2/3 days stopovers to get to South East Asia, Maldives, Mauritius, Seychelles and other Arab speaking countries. I actually love this city - it is really good and clean. Done all the main sites there - Katara Cultural Village, Aspire Tower and Park, Doha skyline, National Museum, Museum of the Islamic Arts, The Pearl, Muhammed Ibn Abdul Wahab Mosque, a day trip to the sea line desert, Katara Tower, Villagio Mall, Education City Mosque, Souq Waqif, Qanat Quartier etc.
I actually prefer staying in Doha rather than Dubai although Abu Dhabi is wonderful
