Hyatt Hotels Corporation has confirmed that its new 400-room Doha property, which is now taking reservations, will open on 15 September 2020.
The impending launch of Hyatt Regency Oryx Doha, the first Hyatt Regency-branded hotel in Qatar and only the country’s third Hyatt hotel, will further add to the Middle East’s rapidly growing hospitality scene. This 400-room hotel lies near Hamad International Airport, just a short drive from the city centre, and is aimed at both business and leisure travellers.

Hyatt Regency Oryx Doha will offer 12 luxury suites and a variety of social spaces, including a Regency Club, three restaurants, two lounges, a pool bar and a jazz club. There will also be 10,700 sq ft of meeting and event facilities, with a state-of-the-art business centre, two ballrooms and 11 meeting and conference rooms.
