    An urban refuge of green planes and waterscapes in the heart of Doha, evokes Qatar’s natural environment of dunes and wadis.

    Covering four stories of underground parking in one of the Worlds’ biggest ‘green roofs’ are extensive gardens, play areas, shaded seating areas and cycle paths that promote outdoor living across 7 hectares.

     

    Green spaces increase thermal comfort in a harsh urban atmosphere. Hotel Park is up to 10° cooler than non-treed areas in Doha’s centre.
