Stunning landscapes, fine dining, and inexplicable comfort, Doha offers you an unforgettable luxury vacation. What better way to preserve its memory than to indulge in a spot of luxury shopping.
Massive, diverse, and located only 5 minutes away from Banana Island Resort Doha by Anantara, City Centre Doha is arguably the most famous shopping mall in the country. The range of products available here is spread wide and far, with over three hundred shops offering the best of products. Almost all shops are of branded goods and have an interesting mix of local and global brands. In true Doha style, there are several recreational activities on offer for the shopper, including a bowling alley and rock climbing. There is also an ice rink for you to skate in, an unusual experience in a country that is known for its fierce sun.
Nothing speaks luxury and wealth like gold does. Whether you are a fan of adorning self in gold or not, the Gold Souk is a must visit for any visitor to the country. Not only does it have a large collection of vendors who exclusively sell gold jewellery, but it is also an experience unto itself. There are necklaces of intricate design; earrings that clasp, stud, and dangle; and rings that are truly worthy of being a token of remembrering a special day. If you are interested in the art of gold jewellery, you can even have something custom-made at the souk, although it requires some time.
Hyatt Plaza down Al Waab Street does not cater only to the visitors of many a luxury hotel in Doha, but also to the wealthy residents. Thus, it has a wide range of branded clothing, footwear, and accessories, as well as high-end health products, household items, beauty products, and music. It is a favourite among the well-off locals, thus, if you are looking for something that reflects the luxury lifestyle of the city dwellers, Hyatt Plaza is the place to visit.
Landmark Shopping Mall is indeed a landmark, due to its massive, traditional structure. It is home to domestic as well as international brands of clothing, perfume, footwear, and accessories. But what makes this shopping mall rather special is its numerous shops dedicated to electronic items and accessories. It is also home to one of the largest international music stores as well and is popular among those seeking latest phones, tabs, and other electronic accessories.
Similar to Hyatt Plaza, this Mall, too, caters to the wealthy locals. Thus, it has the usual array of local and global brands as well as several European brands. However, what sets Villaggio Mall apart from the others is its architecture. The interior design of the mall has been created to reflect the architectural style of Venice. As a component of this architectural design, visitors to the mall can enjoy a gondola ride within the shopping complex itself.
