I stayed at Central Inn Souq Waqif during my recent trip to Doha, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice—especially for travelers who want both comfort and convenience without breaking the bank. The location is unbeatable. Just a few minutes’ walk from the lively Souq Waqif, it gave me easy access to all the sights, smells, and sounds of traditional Qatari culture. Whether I wanted to shop for souvenirs, explore the market’s winding alleyways, or grab a bite of local food, everything was right there. The room was clean, spacious, and surprisingly well-equipped for a mid-range hotel. The bed was very comfortable, the AC worked perfectly (which is essential in Doha’s heat!), and I appreciated the reliable Wi-Fi. It’s not a luxury hotel, but it delivers exactly what you need for a relaxing stay. One big plus was the friendly staff—always polite and helpful. They assisted me with directions, arranged transport when I needed it, and offered great local recommendations. Overall, Central Inn Souq Waqif is a great choice for travelers looking for affordability, comfort, and a prime spot in the heart of Doha. I’d definitely stay here again!
