India-based Oberoi Group is planning  two new luxury properties in Qatar - a 250-key luxury hotel in the West Bay area of Doha and a 148-key luxury serviced apartment in Lusail.

The construction work on both the projects will start early next year and is expected to be completed in mid-2018.

PRS Oberoi, executive chairman, said: “We are extremely pleased to have been selected by the Qatar General Insurance and Reinsurance Company (SAQ) to assist them in the design and management of these two projects and we look forward to bringing the Oberoi hospitality to the Qatar market."

The Oberoi Group’s Middle Eastern portfolio comprises The Oberoi, Dubai and The Oberoi, Madina. The group also plans to manage a luxury beach resort in Ajman, UAE, which will open in the second quarter of 2016. – TradeArabia News Service
