The most elegant building on the capital's fast-changing seafront, the 232-room Four Seasons blends architectural elements from Karnak Temple, seventeenth-century Arabian fortresses, and mosque domes into a surprisingly harmonious whole. Most guests—business travelers wanting proximity to Doha's financial center—spend downtime at the hotel's three grotto pools, small beach, marina, and excellent Italian restaurant, Il Teatro. The biggest advantage of staying here is the freestanding Spa and Wellness Center, where there's kickboxing, an immense hydrotherapy pool, and an ice room for cooling off after a sauna (or a sightseeing trip to view desert camel races and the dune fields of Qatar's "Inland Sea"). Relentless air-conditioning, which makes the three restaurants and other public areas chilly, is the only drawback at this otherwise satisfying cocoon.
