The territory is cozy. In the evening, there is live music on the lawn and a girl sings (it seemed that the musicians are Russian-speaking).
The beach is nice. It is divided into two parts for swimming with and without children. Like all beaches, it is fenced with a grid. Several rescuers are constantly present. I even watched them practice one morning.
The food was quite satisfactory. You can't call it refined, but it's quite tasty and varied. For breakfast, as a rule, I ate custom-made fried eggs and fresh waffles with chocolate. The lunches and dinners were quite varied, the dishes partially changed. There is a Russian-speaking waiter.
Lobby bar - delicious tea and coffee. There are guys from Kazakhstan who speak Russian perfectly. And live music.
There are Russian-speaking staff at the reception - very nice girls from Kazakhstan with almost perfect Russian. All minor household issues that arose were resolved promptly.
The audience was quite adequate. We did not interfere with each other's rest.
Transport accessibility to the city is normal. You can call a taxi or walk to the subway. The National Museum station is a little further away, 15-20 minutes on foot, but the road is more landscaped. Ras Bu Abboud station is a little closer, but the road is not so comfortable). A daily unlimited metro ticket cost 6 rials per person - about 170-180 rubles. After 15-16 hours, as a rule, they went for a walk around the city or to the shopping center. We returned at about 22.00 and had time to have dinner (the restaurant is open until 22.30).
I recommend the hotel. Even if you are not sure of your English, there will be employees who will understand you).
Important! American rubles are considered "overdue" until 2017, but some cards work (for example, the Gazmasbank card of the Asian payment system). I recommend purchasing a local SIM card (about 40 rials or 1200 rubles) and becoming the owner of Internet access because it is not always possible to connect to the network in the shopping center and metro.

We stayed at the Rixos Gulf Hotel Doha and were very satisfied. Excellent service, attentive staff and cleanliness at the highest level. The food is varied and delicious, especially I liked the choice for breakfast. The territory is well maintained, the beach is comfortable, and the pool is simply magnificent. A great place to relax and work. We will definitely come back again!

The hotel is located in Doha on the shore of the bay. A small but very cozy area. Sun beds and umbrellas are placed on the beach and in the pool area. The rooms are large and comfortable. A decent choice in restaurants. There is a pastry shop. It works on half board and all inclusive.

The hotel itself is not bad, the rooms are good, the staff tries hard, the territory is nice green, the beach is not bad, there are few umbrellas, there is no animation in the afternoon in the evening, the food is the same from the word the same in the morning if you want fish, you need to ask the waiter to bring portions explaining that there is little of it and on the common table not an option, but the concept of the menu should be and so with many, the wino is the cheapest.
I think they will recover in a year and it will be better.

Nice hotel.It's not the first time that everyone likes everything at Rixos, the food is delicious, the rooms are clean, beautiful and with a twist, the compact territory of the hotel, events every evening, a big plus is that you don't need to buy sand toys - they are in the children's club. We would also like to note a good room cleaning service! Thanks!

Great location. Clean/fresh room.
Minus: lunch and dinner are the same food))) seafood (?) You haven't heard. Service (?) well, as if you heard something ... weakly ... were in Rixos in Abu Dhabi, this is heaven and earth for the service of a variety of food, etc..
Sea. The beach is small , my 5-year-old child and I are about. But at 8 a.m., it is difficult to take sun beds on the first line to keep an eye on the child.
In general, we got what we wanted: we really wanted to see Doha, we went to different locations every evening - 10-15 minutes from the hotel, the hotel is all inclusive, with alcohol.

Great hotel near the airport! The kitchen is also good, the rooms have shampoo, soap, etc. Karl Lagerfeld. There are a lot of entertainment areas for children, all sorts of workshops and shows, so it won't be boring! Only the view on the beach is not particularly pleasing in its spaciousness, but is marked by the "yacht parking" structure...so there won't be a special view from the beach. And so, in general, the norms! :)

They were in August 2024. Excellent hotel, modern rooms,appliances,excellent cuisine. The gym is modern, the pools are cooled. It's very hot this time of year, but it's great in the pools or in the lounge. The time of the year is not up to walking, just "chill" at the hotel. The children's program is also on top...

an urban-type hotel, there is no animation for adults in the hotel at all, there can't even be any talk of an evening program, there simply isn't one here, we entertained ourselves the whole vacation, so if you plan to fly here, take a company and a lot of board games. I would like to note the rooms, they are very good, new, beautiful, and most importantly clean, cleaning every day, for the whole vacation only once a towel was not reported, there is also a capsule coffee machine in the room, the mini bar is replenished daily, personal hygiene products are similar, what I really liked in the room personally is this the touch control panel (that is, all switches/switches are touch-sensitive). the water in the pool cools, but not much (at 41 ° the water is more warm than cold). as for the food, it is monotonous here, there are ala-carte restaurants, but only 1 (Indian) is free, the food there is for an amateur, we did not like it, all other restaurants are paid, but a 25% discount is valid for rixos guests. the staff is friendly. a very "interesting fact" is that alcohol is not allowed inside the hotel, you can only drink on the street. they also do not let you inside without outerwear (you will not be allowed in a swimsuit) another "interesting fact" is the food in the "cafe", where you can take, say, a latte or something else, there is also food / cakes, and if drinks are included in the price, then there is no food, on the first day of arrival we went to bed, because we were tired, and accordingly overslept dinner, went downstairs to eat and order a sandwich with red fish and avocado, it cost $17, keep in mind. also, about food, you can't take it out of the main restaurant, even if your child is sick and he physically can't walk to the restaurant and eat, you still can't, there's a food truck on the beach, everything is free for people with all inclusive, the food is delicious there.
I also want to say about the sun beds, there are very few of those that are in the shade (or under an umbrella). there are also saps in the advertisement, but they are paid here (in rixos in the emirates they are included in the price), so I liked the hotel in principle, but for one time, and for a maximum of a week no more.

Nice hotel with Turkish service in Qatar.
By the way, there is a Russian-speaking staff there. And this helps a lot in many ways. There are different concepts, you can take breakfast and dinner on the basis of breakfast.

Good rooms, excellent staff, cleanliness, freshness. The minus is the food. Minimal choice, lack of seafood (except for a couple of times of incomprehensible overcooked fish), lack of natural juices, a meager children's table (nuggets, fries, pasta)
The beach closes early - as soon as the sun sets over the horizon

A good hotel, cool pools, we were at the peak of the heat in mid-August, the sea was unbearably hot, we were saved by the pools, we rode around Doha in the afternoon, we did not sit in the hotel, the impressions were not bad, there were problems when checking in, the reception did not work at all, we paid for a room with an extra bed, barely managed to bring a sofa by midnight All the staff doesn't care about you, otherwise it's not bad

I came to Rixos for the first time, which has nothing good except design
The food is not only the same every day, it is also not tasty, there are not enough tables, waiters work with faces as if in slavery, there are no napkins on the tables, people stumble over each other in the food distribution area, you need to queue for tea to get it at least in the next 15 minutes there is a queue for drinks at the water bar at 12.00 o'clock and dissatisfied waiters meet you, in general there is something to think about

There were 5 nights at the end of May. The hotel is comfortable, clean rooms, luxurious bathroom. There are no photos of rooms with two separate beds on the hotel's website, but in reality they are there. The beds are large, the bed linen and pillows are gorgeous. The air conditioner does not blow at the head of the bed, it is convenient.
We took HB, a fairly diverse selection of food, nimble waiters. Of the cons: there are a lot of people at breakfast, I had to look for empty tables a couple of times.
There is no beach, it is not for lovers of the beautiful sea. The water is stagnant, a small swimming area is fenced with buoys. The feeling that you are not swimming in the sea, but in a large pool.
Friendly reception staff. I applied several times to print out documents, call a taxi, they always helped. There is live music in the lobby during the day. There are tables with computer chargers, it is convenient to work.
The temperature outside was +- 40°
We had a work trip, so we went to the beach by 5 p.m. and it was already more or less tolerable. Until then, only a quick dash to the taxi.
We were satisfied with the hotel, you can stay in it and feel comfortable.
However, whether it is worth going on vacation at all in the hot months in order to comfortably "sit in a hotel" is a big question.

In short: Special advantages in the CHILDREN'S CLUB, design, service and atmosphere
Careful, long reed😅
We recently returned from vacation to Rixos Gulf. About our experience further along the points)
1. Service: The service is excellent. There are waiters in the all-inclusive restaurant - they bring drinks. In general, there are a lot of staff, everyone is friendly and working!!! I was especially pleased that the lifeguards at the water really keep an eye on those in the pool, we could relax while our daughter was in the pool. There was a case that she swam to a deeper area, the rescuer saw that the girl was alone and came over to check. It beautiful Number of rescuers: 2-3 by the pools, 3 by the beach and 1 by the children's mini pool.
I will also add here on the topic of security: access to the floor is possible only if you have a pass card. The elevator will not go until it scans the map, etc.
2. Food: I would like to expand the selection of breakfast dishes. We expected more meat. Otherwise, we found something new and delicious every day. In the buffet: there are areas for Indian cuisine (not counting the a-la carte restaurant), you can order pizza and pasta. Always fresh fruits: pineapple melons, watermelon, fruit salad in the morning. Excellent desserts, including delicious mousses. Hummus and salads are not usual for me. It was possible to assemble the salad yourself. For lunch, dinner is served with meat (chicken, beef, lamb) and fish. Once there was a crab, a red salted fish.
There is alcohol, if that's important to you. Of the waiters, it is definitely worth noting:
Tachgeldi, Kurshid
3. Interior design: The interior of the hotel has left us with great impressions. It was modern and cozy. Thoughtful planning solution of the room (including bathroom), Hall, restaurant. The zoning on the street has been perfectly solved. I liked the lighting design and the quality of the materials used.
Air conditioners work in every room.
Electrics: no adapter is required for different types of European / American sockets. Touch switches, + there is a button to call cleaning and do not disturb.
1 swimming pool with an increase in depth to 2.1m + a knee-high area + sun beds on the water. 1 pool up to 1.25 approximately with a grid and a smooth set of depths, the 'children's' area is separated by buoys. 1 jackji for age 12+. One super small pool. An area with splash pads and a climbing wall.
4. Kids Club: we were careful in the beginning. But then her daughter demanded to leave her there as long as possible. Our child spent a lot of time there and was delighted with the variety of entertainment and care of the animators. We were sure that he was under the supervision of professionals. We parted literally with tears. If you meet:
Hassen, Cimen, Tanya, Aida, Yusuf, then you can safely leave the child. The absolute love of our daughter is Cimen, Tanya and Hassen. And they will feed, and play, and even swim. So we managed to leave our daughter and go on an excursion. Everyone was happy. The guys speak different languages, especially basic phrases.
Due to the zoning, the sound of the mini disco is not audible in the main part of the hotel.
5. Beach: Great clean beach. There is no silt, or I didn't find it. There are various activities in the water according to the schedule, including riding a skateboard by the sea. I read somewhere about the yacht club: yes, yachts are visible, but traffic there is conditionally once a week. There are no jellyfish or algae on the beach.
6. Weather: we were in May, the weather completely coincides with my expectations, my husband is hot. In my opinion, it's the best thing for a "mattress vacation". It is not possible to stay in the sun for a long time without a headdress, from 12 to 15. Sunscreen is our friend. You leave the building and it's always warm/hot. It is better for a child to buy a closed swimsuit, he sits in the pool for hours and the cream may not save him.

Disgusting hotel , zero service , food - it is unbearable for a Russian person to eat , peppery , salty , everything is cold .
Drinks are the cheapest .
Dirty territory , bulls everywhere .
The numbers are OK , but it doesn 't save them .
It feels like all the reviews on Yandex are purchased .
I always choose Rixos, but this one is a quiet horror

A beautiful hotel, the rooms are new and cozy. But the food leaves much to be desired. Dinner is served with what remains of lunch. This is unacceptable for such a hotel. And in general, there is no variety in nutrition, there are no freshly squeezed juices, fish and seafood are rarely given. You should also pay attention to the beach. The sun beds are old, some of them are broken, and the waiters rarely walk along the beach. We need to look for them. I can't put anything except a B minus

The old Marriott was redone, as the office opposite had to stay in Rixos! I was counting on the kids club, it's one meter by one meter. Disgusting hotel, yacht club next to the beach, and in general it is built on an industrial area, think for yourself! The kitchen is not the same as in rixos!
