The Somerset West Bay staff are truly amazing! They really make you feel at home and go above and beyond to meet any expectations that you might have. The room quality is fantastic! We stayed in a 1,2 and 3 bedroom unit over our 4 month stay at the Somerset and regardless of the size, all the bedrooms are large, clean and very comfortable. I would 100% recommend this property to anyone looking for convenience and who requires a bit more space than simply a standard small hotel unit.
We will definitely be back at the Somerset West Bay!

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveler reviews.
My wife and I have lived here since May and we love it. This is an absolute must if you are considering extended stay. It is located easy walking distance to 3 nice beach lounges as well as all of the hotels for a night out. Glen house downstairs has amazing food that never disappoints. Discount for residence.
The rooms are comfortable, spacious, and up to date. Ocean side rooms have a spectacular view of the bay with very large windows. This hotel is a quiet gem located right in the center of the hustle and bustle of west bay.
The best part about this hotel is the staff. We work the night shift and they have really gone out of their way to reschedule cleaning and services to make sure we are comfortable and are able to get a good rest during the normal working hours. From the security up to management, everyone is super friendly and always helpful. Our favorite is Khalid. He is amazing. It always brightens our day to see his smiling face before we head off to work. The gym also has a physical trainer most days that is also very pleasant and very helpful.
The only downsides I can think of is I wish they had a sauna. The Ascott rewards program also does not allow contract guest (long term stays) the ability to gain points for their stays like Hilton and Marriot. Seems like a missed opportunity to gain loyalty, as we would love to see other Ascott properties around the world if they are half as good as Somerset.

We had a fantastic stay at Somerset. The place was spotlessly clean, and it’s clear they really care about hygiene. Every little detail, from the tidy rooms to the well-kept amenities, showed how much attention they put into making guests comfortable. The staff were always friendly and ready to help. If you're looking for a clean, welcoming place to stay, I definitely recommend Somerset!

Spacious apartments, some of them, like mine, have great sea views. Somerset West Bay's location is a stone's throw from the Corniche, facing the beaches of West Bay and a stone's throw from the City Center Mall. There is a restaurant, a Glen House and a bar, an outdoor pool on the ground floor and a convenient market, small but stocked with everything you need.

I had a bad experience with a nearby Marriott hotel so I checked into the Somerset hotel. The room I was given had a view of the waterfront and was spacious for a 1-bedroom apartment. The kitchen was pretty well stocked, but they lacked saucepans, so I had to go buy one of my own at the nearby Carrefour store in the mall. The A/C worked very well and I thought the bedroom was quite comfortable. The furniture in the apartment was quite new and in good condition. I really liked being able to cook healthy meals for myself instead of eating junk food at the restaurants in the mall, so this hotel was a great value. One unanticipated feature of the room was the ability to see a dust storm roll in across the bay, something I had never seen happen over water.

My stay has been exceptional! Service is excellent with amazing staff who are warm, friendly, and welcoming.
Centrally located in the heart of Doha, with stunning views of the sea, Somerset checked all my boxes when I was searching for accommodation, including safety and security, cleanliness, plus it is close to many Doha attractions. The apartment is beyond comfortable, spacious and quiet. I will definitely be coming back in the future, as well as recommending the place to my friends and family. Thank you all for the welcome.

A perfect fam date after a very busy week. The kids loves the pool. Even my 2 y.o has a place to enjoy his swim ❤️
There is also a full kitchen set up perfect for a non fasting family this Ramadan.
Will surely stay again. ❤️❤️❤️
