Tourism in Qatar

Boosting tourism A range of visa measures announced by the Qatar National Tourism Council (QNTC), formerly known as Qatar Tourism Authority (QTA), have been widely welcomed by tourism industry professionals, as well as the country’s hospitality and retail operators. The introduction of the free, 96-hour transit visa and +Qatar (an initiative to promote Qatar as a stopover destination by QNTC and Qatar Airways) resulted in bringing close to 200,000 visitors to Qatar. In August 2017, Qatar introduced visa waivers for citizens of more than 80 countries. Since inception, at least 275,000 visitors have entered Qatar visa-free. In September 2018, the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) ranked Qatar as the 8th most open in the world in terms of visa facilitation in its '10 Most Open Visa Countries in the World'. In addition, Qatar was ranked number 1 in the Middle East and number eight globally in business environment by the World's Economic Forum's Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Report 2019. In January 2020, Qatar ranked as the second safest country in the world by Numbeo, the world's largest database of user contributed data. In addition to offering a wide range of authentic experiences, Qatar hosts close to 80 sporting events annually, and will be the first Middle Eastern country to host the 2022 FIFA World Cup QatarTM and the 2023 FINA World Swimming Championships.

Tourist arrivals Qatar has registered a marked increase of about 17% in the number of visitors to the country with a double digit growth in 2019. Qatar welcomed 1.49 mn visitors in the first three quarters of 2019, representing an increase of 12% compared to the same period in 2018.

In 2018, Qatar witnessed a decline in visitors as a result of the blockade imposed on Qatar since 5 June 2017. According to QNTC, despite this overall decline, a breakdown of arrivals by region shows positive growth in all non-GCC and other Arab regions throughout the first quarter of 2018. In addition, monthly arrivals have been slowly increasing since the blockade, with the highest monthly arrivals since the blockade being observed in January 2018. The country is concentrating on attracting Chinese, Russian and Indian tourists. QNTC has representation offices in three of the largest cities in China, as well as in Russia and India. In Q3 2019, and for the first time, US nationals replaced UK nationals as Qatar’s second largest source of visitor arrivals, after Indian nationals. Arrivals from the UK (90,862) are up 20% from 2018; arrivals from the US (91,597) are up 16% from 2018, a significant jump in the annual growth rates achieved over the past three years (between 4-6%). This growth has helped offset the 8% decline in visitation from Indian nationals between 2018 and 2019, which represents a slowing of the unprecedented growth from Indian national visitors in 2018.

Hotel and hotel apartment performance The hospitality accommodation sector in Qatar saw room supply increase by 4% in Q3 2019, compared to the same period in 2018. Substantial growth was seen in demand (up 21%), resulting in an increase in occupancy (up 8%), over the first three quarters of 2019 in comparison to the same period in 2018. Overall, Average Room Rate (ARR) was down by 4% across all hotels and hotel apartments. However, Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR) was up 3% at the end of Q3 2019, in comparison to Q3 2018. ©

Next Chapter On World Tourism Day 2017, held annually on 27 September, Qatar launched the Next Chapter of its National Tourism Sector Strategy 2030, which charts the next five years of the tourism sector’s growth in Qatar.

Cruise industry Qatar saw a record number of cruise tourists this 2019–20 season, which began in October 2019 and concluded in April 2020. It's the busiest season with over 186,000 passengers and over 61,000 crew arriving on 74 ships. As a result of various initiatives by and close cooperation between Mwani Qatar, QNTC and other stakeholders, Qatar's cruise industry has witnessed significant growth in the last few years. The 2018–19 season achieved 121% growth in the number of cruise passengers and 100% increase in the number of cruise ships, with more than 140,000 passengers, arriving aboard 44 ships. Over the past few years, QNTC has established a number of strong relationships with international cruise operators as well as with other specialists involved in the industry. This has proved to be of great importance as Qatar will be benefitting from cruise ships during the 2022 FIFA World Cup QatarTM, as a means of providing additional accommodation for fans and visitors over the period. A minimum of 6,000 rooms on cruise ships will be contracted for the 2022 tournament.

QNTC’s projections show continued growth in the cruise tourism industry over the coming years. With the completion of the Doha Port redevelopment, and the associated capacity increase which allows the port to receive two megaships at once, Qatar is expected to attract 500,000 cruise tourists by 2026.

According to travel solution provider TravelSupermarket, visitor arrivals in Doha are projected to grow by 104% by 2025, making it the fastest-growing tourist destination among major cities worldwide. The city is expected to see more than 4.51 mn visitors in 2025. Tourism is expected to play a greater role in Qatar’s economy as the sector’s share of the country’s GDP will be nearly QAR133.5 bn in 2028, reports the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC). Travel and tourism investment in Qatar may exceed QAR14.5 bn, or 4.2% of total investments in the country, in 2028. m

Qatar National Tourism Council (QNTC) In November 2018, The Amir, HH Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani issued Decision No 74 of 2018 establishing QNTC, cancelling QTA and the government committee to coordinate conferences and events. All functions of QTA shall be allocated to QNTC. The council has a legal identity and a budget to be attached to the general budget of Qatar. It reports to the Cabinet and has its headquarters within the country, and can also have offices outside Qatar. The council provides suitable circumstances to implement the national strategy for tourism and related programmes in a way that sustains the comprehensive development plans for tourism. It's also concerned with regulation of the sector and the promotion of tourism, both within and outside Qatar. The Amir also issued Decision No 75 of 2018 to form the board of directors of the QNTC. The new council reports to a board of highlevel representatives, chaired by Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, HE Sheikh Khalid bin Khalifa bin Abdulaziz Al Thani. The tenure of the board of directors of the council is set at four years, which is renewable for a similar period.

Checked & Updated February 2020

Cruise passengers can also avail of the new transit visa. As part of the new operating procedure – which includes the use of enhanced technology and close collaboration between cruise operators and security officials – a passenger manifest containing the passport details of passengers and crew will be shared with immigration officials 48 hours prior to a ship’s arrival in Qatar. This will allow the authorities to process all relevant information and clear passengers for entry before the ship's berth, enabling travellers to disembark within minutes and begin on-shore excursions.

The next chapter aims to attract 5.6 mn visitors to Qatar annually by 2023, double the number which the country welcomed in 2016. It also aims to achieve a 72% occupancy rate across all hotel establishments, through a combination of increasing demand and diversifying the country’s tourist accommodation offering.

Qatar's First Floating Hotels By Ola Diab Floating hotels are coming to Qatar at the upcoming Qetaifan Island North for the 2022 FIFA World Cup QatarTM.

I

n January 2020, Qetaifan Projects, a company owned by Katara Hospitality, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with ADMARES Construction and Trading, to construct and operate 16 floating hotels on the shores of Qetaifan Island North to provide accommodation for the fans within the fan villages during the 2022 FIFA World Cup QatarTM.

The 16 floating hotels will each be 72-m-long and 16-m-wide, each consisting of 101 guest rooms, a restaurant, and a lounge bar. All the 16 four-storey hotels will be identical, offering a total of 1,616 floating hotel rooms. Relying on solar energy, the hotels will be built according to the strictest energy standards. These hotels will be built separate to the mainland and feature their own sewage treatment plant, recycling facilities, and sustainable power generator. The hotels will also have every amenity needed and offer private boats, ferries, and water taxis to carry visitors to and from the shore. Designed by Finland’s Sigge Architects, the hotels require a water depth of four or more metres, and can be moved to another coastal location after the World Cup. According to the Chief Executive of ADMARES, Mikael Hedberg, the hotels will be the first time that pure floating real estate has been used as a

temporary solution for accommodation needs at this scale. ADMARES specialises in floating or pile-supported structures. Located off Lusail City, Qetaifan Island North features seven beaches, which makes it the city’s distinct waterfront destination. The island spans approximately 1.3 mn sq m with 830,000 sq m of attractions. In proximity to Qetaifan Island North is Lusail International Stadium, which will host the opening and final games of the 2022 FIFA World Cup QatarTM. Projected to house up to 25,000 people, the island will provide fans and tourists with many leisure activities and facilities with fan villages, which will include the floating hotels. In addition to the floating hotels, another one of the island’s attractions is the upcoming 129,296 sq m water park. Some of the best floating hotels can be found in the UK (Solent Forts; Good Hotel London), Canada (Ocean House in Haida Gwaii), India (Taj Lake Palace), Tanzania (Manta Resort; River Kwai Jungle Rafts in Sai Yok), Cambodia (4 Rivers Floating Lodge on Koh Andet Island), Maldives (Conrad Maldives; Gili Lankanfushi in Male), Sweden (Salt & Sill), Singapore (Beach Villa Ocean Suites at Resorts World Sentosa), Serbia (Salt & Water Catamarans) and France (OFF Paris Seine; Les Cabanes des Grands Cepages in Sorgues). m

No Better Hospitality Than Qatar’s Hospitality By Ola Diab Qatar’s hospitality sector has been ranked the best in the Middle East for a second consecutive year by hospitality and travel data providers, Olery.

Q

atar’s hospitality sector continues to win accolades, ranked best in the Middle East for a second consecutive year, according to the Guest Experience in the Middle East Report, released in May 2019 by hospitality and travel data providers, Olery.

The report analysed over 12 mn online guest reviews in the past 12 months – from 1 April 2018 to 31 March 2019 – from popular online booking sites. Qatar’s score increased to 85.4 from 84.3 in 2018. The development of new attractions such as the new National Museum of Qatar (NMoQ), which was credited with helping maintain the hospitality sector’s momentum. The report measures overall guest satisfaction by considering different aspects of their tourist accommodation experience, including service, location, cleanliness, room quality, and value for money. In Qatar, service, cleanliness and location received ratings of 9.0, above the global benchmark in each of these categories. Qatar’s hospitality sector also scored higher in rooms (8.9), food (8.8) and facilities (8.4). According to the ‘guest type’ category, Qatar’s tourist accommodation was particularly popular among business travellers, families, and friends. The Secretary-General of Qatar National Tourism Council (QNTC) and CEO of Qatar Airways, HE Akbar Al Baker, said, ‘Qatar’s hospitality sector remains a key engine of our tourism vision. We congratulate our partners in the private sector for their continued growth, and their focus on providing travellers with unparalleled hospitality and authentic experiences. ‘The Olery report confirms that Qatar’s hospitality QATAR HOSPITALITY E-GUIDE ©

sector is best in class, and a model for the industry and the region. The Olery report and the guests who have stayed in Qatar’s hotels articulated the main selling points as attentive service, top notch facilities, and authentic experiences,’ he added. ‘These remain a priority as we continue to build diverse tourism and hospitality products and attract more guests to experience all that Qatar has to offer.’ The year 2019 started on a high note for Qatar’s tourism and hospitality sector with features in some of the world’s top travel lists. Regardless of the Qatar blockade, Doha has been named among ’10 Most Open Visa Countries in the World' by the World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) in 2018, one of the ‘Top 15 Places to Travel to in 2019’ by Forbes and ‘52 Places to Go in 2019’ by The New York Times (NYT).

The deal QNTC signed a deal with Olery in 2015 to get immediate and real-time data and reports on the quality of the services and operations carried out by Qatar’s hotels. Through this agreement, QNTC seeks to benefit from the Olery destination system, which draws on traveller and customer reviews to constantly monitor dozens of customer review sites across the world. Olery also analyses thousands of reviews each day to provide a deep insight into the guest experiences within Qatar’s hotels. The strengths of the system lie in its ability to give a constant and consistent approach to the experiences of visitors to hotels worldwide, and analysing the data to provide an overview of the destination’s hospitality industry. It can even compare the quality of the industry within Qatar to other destinations around the world or regionally. ©

Olery’s Hospitality Performance Report will provide QNTC with a tool which keeps up with Qatar’s dynamic and rapidly expanding hospitality sector. The report makes it possible to track the overall performance of the destination’s hotels, as well as to observe the performance of each hotel individually. QNTC will make use of these insights to promote a steady and consistent level of guest satisfaction across the whole hospitality industry. Further, by using the data as a basis for extensive market analysis, informed decisions on where support for specific hotels or hotel segments can be made. At the core of the data supplied to the QNTC is the Guest Experience Index™, the only scientifically backed quality measures in the hospitality industry, resulting from a cooperative effort between Olery and VU University Amsterdam. The underlying algorithm is proprietary to the system, and this provides a fair output from all relevant customer reviews submitted across the world by visitors to Qatar from websites such as TripAdvisor, Hotels.com and others. Additionally, ratings for different aspects of the guest experience such as comfort, cleanliness and service are being included. Olery is also providing an online tool containing all data for the QNTC to assess in real-time. m

Further developemnt in the hospitality and tourism sector QNTC became the founding sponsor of the IE University UNWTO Tourism Online Academy, which was established in April 2019. The agreement was signed by QNTC Assistant Secretary-General Hassan Al Ibrahim, and Global Director of Corporate Relations at IE University William Davila in the presence of World Tourism Organisation of the United Nations (UNWTO) Secretary-General Zurab Pololikashvili. The online platform will provide professionals with easy access to high quality education and training in the travel and tourism, hospitality and destination management fields. The initiative will provide easily accessible and exhaustive training for people seeking a profession in the tourism sector, which provides one in 10 jobs globally. The academy will benefit from UNWTO thorough knowledge and expertise in tourism, as well as IE University’s innovative education model. Graduates will receive an IE University UNWTO Online Tourism Academy certification in Foundations of Management Applied to Tourism. The curriculum will cover strategy management, operations management, marketing management, finance fundamentals, as well as technology and innovation management. QNTC also announced that the UNWTO is lending its expertise to help develop the Qatar National Tourism Experience Awards programme. The awards programme will recognise businesses, public entities, NGOs and associations, operating both inside and outside of Qatar and across all sectors, that are directly or indirectly contributing to the delivery of exceptional experiences to Qatar's visitors.

Dining in Qatar

Souq Waqif Boutique Hotels

Reflecting its multicultural society, Qatar has a huge range of cuisines to choose from. Venues range from local cafeterias to gourmet restaurants in the finest locations. Many international franchises have branches countrywide for those addicted to certain brands. There is, of course, a focus on Middle Eastern dishes with a plethora of dining options for patrons wishing to 'eat like a local'. If you love food and want to keep up to date with all the latest news and dining promotions, especially for the holy month of Ramadan and Eid, visit marhaba.qa and our social media.

Grabbing a bite around town Qatar residents are spoiled for choice when it comes to dining out in and around Qatar. There are numerous local and international dining outlets and cafés, many with a drive-through or takeaway service, to catch a quick bite. Juice stalls are everywhere selling fresh juices, wraps and sandwiches, while the more discerning palate can find mid-range, casual dining restaurants in malls and around town. Throughout the year, hotel restaurants offer great choice and value-for-money promotions that include happy hours, early dinner offers and more. Before the arrival of high temperatures in the summer, make sure to enjoy an al fresco meal. Looking for weekday dining options? Great deals are on offer across town. Business lunches usually run from noon until 3 pm, and include a two or three course menu for a set price. Early dinner menus are usually between 5 pm and 7 pm, and offer a set price for two or three courses. Thursday evenings, and Friday and Saturday brunches have become very popular with both locals and expatriates, and widely available in hotels and outlets around town. Prices vary with alcohol and non-alcohol packages. Brunches are moving from all-you-can-eat buffets to a three or four course à la carte option. Friday brunches are popular in Qatar with many hotels offering buffets in a family-friendly environment. Buffet food and à la carte offerings abound with tiered pricing, making it a great option for friends

or family. The following pages list some of the places to eat and drink in Qatar.

Dining at home and outside catering A large number of restaurants offer a takeaway service; this will often include home delivery with a nominal delivery fee. Many restaurants and hotels provide a full outside catering service for special occasions, including chefs, wait staff and table settings. And they will clear up afterward!

Helpful hints Many restaurants have a family section and there are some with closed-off rooms should you require extra privacy. Restaurants are generally no smoking zones, though some licensed restaurants in hotels may have both a smoking and a non-smoking section. According to Law No 10 of 2016 on the control of tobacco and its derivatives, smoking is prohibited in closed public spaces. The legal age for drinking alcohol in Qatar is 21. Your ID may be requested if dining at a licensed restaurant, as well as at bars and clubs, so don't forget to take your passport or Residence Card. Some clubs and bars will ask you to pay a joining fee, and issue a membership card to use on return visits. On 1 January 2019, Law No 25 of 2018 on Selective Tax (Excise Tax Law) came into effect to the regulate consumption of 'health-damaging' goods, with a 100% tax on tobacco and alcohol products, energy drinks and special purpose goods, and a 50% tax on carbonated drinks. m ©

Qatar in 48 Hours By Ola Diab Qatar's compact size makes it the ideal destination for a flying visit. Souq Waqif

M

illions of transit passengers pass through Hamad International Airport (HIA) every year and Qatar receives a large number of business travellers. And now, nationals from at least 80 countries can take advantage of visa-free entry into Qatar, thanks to the new visa waiver upon arrival. Exploring Qatar's culture and attractions has never been easier. Invite your friends and family to discover an authentic Arabian treasure in the heart of the Gulf -- a land famous for its heritage, luxury and hospitality. If you're prepared to get up early and go to bed late, you can see much of what Qatar has to offer in just 48 hours. We've put together some themed itineraries to help you plan your stay -- mix them up to create your ideal trip. If you're a resident, maybe we can inspire you to try something new.

DAY ONE Start your day by taking a stroll down the Doha Corniche! The seven kilometres has the best view of the Doha skyline. A dhow trip is highly recommended during your short stay. See Doha from the sea with National Cruise, offering diverse cruise themes anwd voyages, which include food, sightseeing and day cruises. Doha's Corniche is adjacent to the newly reopened and lush green Al Bidda Park. It's Qatar's biggest and first pet-friendly park, extending over an area of about two million square metres, boasting expansive landscape and flora, and featuring large gymnasiums, outdoor exercise equipment, open-air playgrounds, open theatre, barbeque stations, tracks for bicycles, horses and camels, and other recreational and service facilities. Then enjoy a cup of tea or coffee, or even breakfast, at the nearby Fire Station café, Café 999. The station was built in 1982 as a Civil Defence building. It was occupied by the fire brigade until late

2012 when it was handed over to Qatar Museums (QM), to be recycled for contemporary use. The original details of the building and its tower have been preserved. Today, it stands as a creative space that allows emerging talent from within Qatar to further their practice, research, and work as aspiring professional artists. Dedicate this day to also visiting the Museum of Islamic Art (MIA), Souq Waqif, Katara and The Pearl-Qatar – all must-see destinations in Qatar. Located on the Doha Corniche, MIA is the country’s most celebrated museum, inviting people to learn about the full scope of Islamic art, across three continents and over 1400 years. Within the MIA space, you’ll find another gallery and exhibition centre, Al Riwaq, which holds art exhibitions to spark debate; and the MIA Park boasts lovely cafés as well as Richard Serra’s vertical steel sculpture, ‘7’. Although Souq Waqif comes alive at night, it’s a beautiful place (and fortunately, less busy) during the day. It’s the perfect destination to experience the more historic and cultural side of Qatar with a variety of shops, restaurants and coffee shops as well as art galleries. Next destination, visit Katara for more cultural and artistic indulgence. It’s a great place to dine for lunch or dinner while taking in its exquisite architecture. Last but not least, take a drive around Qatar’s first and only artificial island spanning nearly four million square metres, The Pearl-Qatar. Get a taste of luxury at this extravagant residential district, swamped with high-end shops and restaurants.

Sand duning at Mesaieed

DAY TWO Now that you’ve seen the ‘Top Places To See in Doha’, you have room to explore beyond the bustling city. Escape the heat at Mesaieed, an oasis of tranquility located amid the dunes of the Arabian Desert, embraced by the blue waters of the Arabian Gulf! Enjoy playing watersports and desert fun at Sealine Beach, A Murwab Resort then take a quad bike and sand bash in the dunes. If you still have time, Zekreet has something for everyone: fascinating geological features and ruins for the intrepid explorer, fabulous stretches of beach for a picnic or overnight camping, and favourable weather conditions for adrenalin junkies to engage in kite surfing and parasailing. If you wish to stay in Doha and enjoy the waters within the city, spend the day at luxurious Banana Island Resort Doha by Anantara, Doha’s paradise island with a botanical garden, 800 metres of pristine private beach and spa menus. If you’re looking to shop – Qatar’s favourite pastime – visit the country’s newest malls, Tawar Mall, Doha Festival City or Mall of Qatar.

Leaving so soon? Don’t rush to Hamad International Airport (HIA)! Besides being spoiled for choice the awardwining airport is a destination for art lovers as it is home to some of the most unique art pieces in the world. QM has worked with local, regional and international artists for over six years to commission and acquire artworks for key locations in and around HIA. The art comprises a mix of sitespecific creations as well as pieces which have been carefully selected for the airport. The first international installation, 'Lamp Bear' by Swiss artist Urs Fischer, was installed in a prominent location in the centre of the airport. Dutch

'Lamp Bear' by Swiss artist Urs Fischer

artist Tom Claassen has produced a series of sculptures of the Oryx, an antelope native to the Arabian Peninsula, which appear as a herd in the arrivals hall of the airport. The airport currently also houses 'Arctic Nurseries of El Dorado' by British artist Marc Quinn, and 'Untitled' by Italian artist Rudolf Stingel. Find out more about HIA and its art installations in Discovering Qatar.
