Accor’s luxury Pullman Hotels & Resorts brand will enter the Qatar market with a 470-key property in Doha, set to open in 2014.
The 5-star hotel, located in the city’s West Bay business district, will be owned by Twin Towers Co. Pullman Doha West Bay will feature extensive meeting space including a 1,300-sq.-m ballroom and three restaurants. The property is already under construction.
The Pullman brand, which caters especially to the meetings, incentives conferences and events market, has grown rapidly within two years to a network of 59 properties across the world.
"Pullman is a brand that has long been associated with sophisticated business frequent travelers and tourists, and has maintained a reputation of innovation and comfort in a highly demanding market,” says Christophe Landais, managing director for Accor Middle East. "Qatar's growing importance as a leisure and business destination has established Doha as an international hub. A significant surge in the number of corporate and MICE travelers visiting Qatar has been observed over the last few years thanks to the development of world-class infrastructures in Doha."
