UAE: Dubai-based Aleph Hospitality has announced its expansion with the signing of its first hotel management agreement in Doha, Qatar.
La Maison features three towers offering 448 guest rooms and serviced apartments.
Guests will also be able to enjoy the health club, swimming pool, restaurants and rooftop coffee shop as well as shops.
There will also be meeting and event space and the property will open in time for the FIFA World Cup.
Bani Haddad, founder and managing director of Aleph Hospitality told the Future of Hospitality Summit – currently underway in Dubai- : “Following our rapid growth in Africa, which saw us enter three new countries just this year, I’m thrilled that we will be starting operations in Qatar and further expand our Middle East footprint with a property of this magnitude. We welcomed seasoned general manager Anders Johannesson and the majority of his executive team at La Maison to the team earlier this month, and we’re all set to open on November 1, in time for the start of the World Cup.”
To support its rapid growth in the Middle East, Aleph Hospitality will also be opening its Saudi Arabia office by the end of this year.
Jad Shamseddin, chief operating officer for Aleph Hospitality added: “We’re really excited to open our office in the Kingdom. The hospitality sector in Saudi Arabia is developing at an incredible pace and has become not just a regional hub but a global player in line with Vision 2030.”
Saudi Arabia has bid for Expo 2030 to be held in Riyadh.
Doha has seen an influx in accommodation providers ahead of the FIFA World Cup, bringing the number of rooms and serviced apartments to 45,000.
