I dont know how anyone can argue the points brought up here. Outside of the big sports events that happen far too infrequently, there really is nothing to do here. If someone wanted to actively plan a stopover on their way to Aus (as someone mentioned), I would really believe they would choose Dubai over this place. The two are incomparable really.


I always questioned why Doha had so many 5 star hotels. As beautiful as they are, the question has always been: "What are the coming here to see to stay in those places?"


There is plenty of accommodation for tourists, but you need something unique to draw people here. Unfortunately, there is everything and more in Dubai, just done better.


Its not that I want to bash Doha, its a simple matter of fact. I would be overjoyed to see change and welcome some interesting attractions. Anything to break up the monotony of this city.
