“Since the launch of our project, we made sure to build our momentum by defining and meeting numerous benchmarks. To sign an MoU with a group of Oberoi Hotels’ exceptional quality and character is exactly the level of association we expect the Al Wa’ab City project to be aligned with. I’m sure this will be a great partnership, we look forward to welcoming Oberoi hotel in Al Wa’ab City and the city of Doha,” she added.

Carla Issa, director of marketing, Al Wa’ab City Management, pointed out that Oberoi was a name that was globally known owing to its accolades, class, luxury, exclusivity and its quality.
