Hotels in Al Wakrah with Swimming Pools

I had a wonderful vacation, the room was so unique and the staff was extremely kind and helpful. I could really recommend this place to anyone who wants to have an incredible experience while traveling or just wants to get away for a bit. Souq Al Wakra Hotel has definitely left an impression on me that I won't forget anytime soon. Tip: it’s nice booking here if it’s your bday or anniversary they’ll prepare a surprise for you. In conclusion, I’ll definitely will come back. Thank you to all the staff who made my stay extra special.

I’ve been staying at The Time Rako Hotel on and off for the last two years, I’ve always had a great experience with everything and everyone. The restaurant food was excellent quality and good value with professional service. The hotel had a well equipped gym and decent swimming pool. The reception staff were always professional and helpful to myself and colleagues (Indian). My last stay at the hotel was for a 6 month business trip! I’ve been in the oil and gas industry for 20 years and I can say with hand on heart this hotel is in my top 3 hotel’s I’ve stayed in. Well done team I’ll look forward to my next visit later on in the year. Thank you.

First of all I have to say the resort itself is lovely. It's a beautiful setting. Very well done and the villa and pool were clean and well maintained. The staff were great, although communication was sometimes difficult. However........ We had visited for one night only with our 2 grown up children, so 4 adults. We had villa no.1 The Amiri Villa with 3 bedrooms and a private pool. Like a previous review said it's not actually private as there is a dunes right out back and not only can people see into the pool area but if the curtains are not closed they can see into the bedrooms too. That aside our main complaints are:- The restaurant was heaving with flies. They were absolutely everywhere and there was nothing in place to stop them. They did have incense burning to no avail all that made was smoke horrible while we were trying to eat our lunch on arrival. The room was just full of smoke. It was kind of gross. The lunch was completely tasteless and mine was served with a garnish that I had said I was was allergic to when placing the order! Despite being told on the phone when we had booked there was no need to book activities we could do that with no problem on arrival. We were told we couldn't do a couple of things until the next day when we would be leaving. So we didn't get to do them. We decided to have dinner in our villa as we weren't prepared to battle the flies again. The dinner was again average. We were also told a particular dish was not spicy but it was so spicy I could not eat it. We had noticed the noise of the dune buggies out back all day but hadn't paid much attention until bedtime. The noise at times was unbearable even after midnight. We couldn't get to sleep until at least 12:30am. These are are not ones that belong to the resort as the dune obviously is publicly accessible. Then we were woken up around 4:15am by workers outside obviously going off to their duties for the day. Their living quarters are right across from the villas and obviously due to the fact that you are in tents noise travels. This went on and on as each group left until at 5am we decided we'd had enough and just got up! Overall a very disappointing trip. We won't come back. It's a shame as our children had been visiting for the Christmas holiday from the US and we have guests come stay with us in Doha on and off so we had planned to take overnight trips here with them going forward. We will look for somewhere else now. On another note and not a criticism of the resort but for anyone with back problems to bear in mind. I have recently had a back injury causing a bulging disk and the last 20 minutes of the journey is off road. Its was dreadful on the way in to the point where I walked with my daughter for the last half a mile. But I drove out and it was more bearable but I did need to get out and walk again part of the way. I know if you do not have an SUV the hotel will pick you up for this part of the journey. But of cou
