The Oberoi Group has entered into management contracts for two new luxury properties in Qatar. This includes a 250-room luxury hotel and a 148-room serviced-apartment. Planning of these projects is under way and construction will commence early 2016 and get completed by around mid-2018. While the hotel is located in the West Bay area, the apartment is in Lusail, on Doha’s outskirts. The projects are being sponsored by Qatar General Insurance and Reinsurance Company (SAQ). P.R.S. Oberoi, Executive Chairman, the Oberoi Group, said that it had been chosen by SAQ to assist in the design and management of these two projects. —
