U R CRAP.THIS IS THE HOLY MONTH of ramadan. i m vvhappy that bars are closed if u still wana drink go back to ur country this is a muslim country so just think what ur saying .
others thanks for stupid comments and overreacting...
sweetangel...well said...but its a global city...you just can't close it suddenly all the way. It will generate more violators than before for the rule...u know that.
I too have heard that its a matter of policy to restrict alcohol outlets to 4 and 5 star hotels.
Its certainly NOT related to Ramadan, as some here suggest, because its not Ramadan yet.
As to "Because we are a Muslim Country" dont we tollerate other religions and cultures too ?
We are building new hotels and have a stated policy to develope the tourist industry. Moves such as this, and the closure or all bars at lunch (until 5pm) are a very negative move for the tourist industry and in fact indicate that Qatar is becoming more and more removed from the standards of the rest of the world.
The reason CYN9 shut down was cos it wasn't one fo the 5-star hotels here in Qatar. Rumour has it that, now hotels that have 5-star ratings can have disco-bars or even a bar lounge...
all bars in a 3-4 star hotel will be closed. I think its 1 of the strategic move by the government to market their 5-star hotels and with constructions everywhere, more hotels are coming up.

I think b coz Ramadan is coming

Because..nowadays..
Maybe they just want to drink outside Doha.Better to ban cigaretts too.
how crap it is "During Ramadan it is closed". Why in only Ramadan. B******t Hypocrisy :(. Its a Muslim country it should not have bars.
let them close all bars in here and leave this country, better to choose open city place
for your information, this is an islamic country....how can they permit bars to operate here?? Haram, i say....
maybe because Ramadan is coming
last year they close also the bars
all bars in a 3-4 star hotel will be closed. I think its 1 of the strategic move by the government to market their 5-star hotels and with constructions everywhere, more hotels are coming up.
I Dont know about the other Bars but Cloud Nyn is not closed they just changed there location and now there are near Exhibition Centre
Thanks
Oh that bad to hear...
if u got sufficient money, go to 5 or 7 star hotels or drink mineral water for the time being.
May be they have seen your half hiding face, get worried and closed
So go to 5 star hotels then.
They did not close the expensive bars. Guess they want to cumulate the money in a few places only with a higher profit margin.
No probs, it was just a sudden decision that was made i heard, the hotels i don't think were given much notice
Thanks buddy
I know 'May be' reasons also...also may be coz they want bars only in three star and above grade hotels...but not sure !!
Is anyone having better information?
All hotels below 4* are not permitted to have bars now
Maybe they don't want bars here anymore so they have decided to close them all one by one
May be because of YOU
