Looking for a place to stay? Raffles, Doha is a five-star ultra-luxury hotel with breathtaking views and beautiful rooms. Inspired by Qatar’s national symbol, this Doha hotel looks like a crescent. Personal butler services? Spa treatments? Raffles has it all. After a relaxing night in Raffles, you can go get a massage at their in-house spa before attending the F1 races.<\/p>\n

The Brunch<\/h3>\n

What is a Doha weekend without brunch? Indulge in the Bubbalicious brunch at The Westin Doha. It is a lively party brunch with live cuisine stations. Serving Italian and Japanese cuisine with free-flowing drinks. For 2023, the brunches will have a weekly theme. We wonder if they will make the upcoming brunch F1 related. Open Friday from 12.30pm to 4pm.<\/p>\n

The Instagram-Worthy Breakfast<\/h3>\n
