"lack of food choices"

(United Kingdom)

Poor air conditioning lack of food choices terrible internet (spent 45 minutes trying to download 17 emails and never actually managed it). Even the on-table tablets couldn't connect to the internet. Very poor in comparison to the old premium lounge.

"is quite exceptional"

(United States)

Qatar Airways new business class lounge is up and running and is quite exceptional. A simpler more elegant version of Emirates lounge in Dubai. I was there when it was not very crowded so it will be interesting to see what it's like when it is full - that was the worst part of the old premium lounge. The lounge has 2 dining facilities several snack areas and bars lots of seating a business area and as with its old premium lounge a lot of staff being helpful. Big and airy it is open to the new terminal but the noise did not seem to be a problem. There are numerous zones for seating broken up by architectural screen walls interior plantscaping and changes to the floor level. Most seats have a touchpad for announcements and surfing and a small set up of bottled water and simple snacks. Aesthetically the design is flawless.

"expected more from the temporary lounge"

(Sweden)

Expected more from the temporary lounge it is not close to the standards of the lounge at the old airport. Only 5-6 tables for eating the rest are small narrow tables with two electric outlets placed between two armchairs not enough room for two to place plates.

"temporary lounge is a real shame"

(Hong Kong)

The temporary lounge is a real shame compared to the previous one : overcrowded poor choice of food and drinks. Terrible when you have many hours of transit in the middle of the night. No wifi dedicated to the lounge but Airport free wifi very slow.

"temporary first class lounge is cramped"

(Australia)

The business class lounges at the new airport in Doha are sill under construction and won't be open for another 3 months a fact you will only find out at checking as we did. There is a temporary first and business class lounge but access is highly restricted due to their limited space and normal oneworld status privileges don't apply. The temporary first class lounge is cramped hot offers a coffee machine with a few snacks. If you are going to be in transit for any length of time recommend you avoid the temporary lounges and head to the transit hotel instead or stay in the main concourse where it's cooler and less congested. I am very surprised that they didn't put the building of their new premium lounges as a priority prior to the new airport opening.

"buffet whilst simple is plentiful"

(United Kingdom)

Cost for the Oryx lounge is 40USD. Given the state of Doha airport whilst the new one is being constructed I think it well worth the money. Showers alone after a long haul are worthwhile and the buffet whilst simple is plentiful and the coffee good. Spacious clean and plenty of seating.

"Staff are very courteous"

(Hong Kong)

The Premium is huge but there are often too many passengers using it. Staff are very courteous and tried very hard and found tables for us in minutes. Lots of choices in buffet food and drinks. However quality on soup and hot dishes are so-so. Arabian snacks are impeccable and are worthy to try. Lots of bar stands for bar services. Bathrooms are spotless as staff will clean all stations before another passenger will use the toilet. The game room was closed and no one was there. The playroom lacks facility and was not attended. There is a Duty Free just for premium customers but there are not many exciting goods there. Generally cannot fault the Premium Terminal. There probably is not a better lounge than QR's Terminal. However they have raised the expectation too high that it is hard to meet the expectation. Hopefully they will have a larger Premium Terminal when new airport opens as they need a terminal that is at least 4 times larger than this one to make it a comfy lounge and allow them to continue to expand.

"poor selection of food and beverages"

(United Kingdom)

Check in staff were no help in locating airside lounge. Shared with other carriers it was comfortable but offered poor selection of food and beverages. Bright with airfield view.

"the lounge is marvellous"

(Denmark)

Qatar Airways uses in Milano (Malpensa) the Sala Montale lounge (B-pier non-Schengen) for their premium frequent flyers and business class passengers. The lounge is marvelous. Its new interesting design gorgeous view of the airport aircrafts’ trafficking just outside the huge panorama windows overlooking starts and landings and a handful of international gates. The lounge is very clean. Furniture composition and art provide an elegant mixture of privacy and plenum options for travelers. On the minus is a stunning lack of hot dishes the only hot dish available is instant noodles. Snacks are many and drinks are even more inclusive of Italian champagne (spumante). Fruits and juices are plenty and coffee machines likewise. Italian cheeses salamis minipizza’s etc. could also have been a nice addition. Toilets lack shower but are well designed. WiFi is a bit tricky to connect to but works well once connected.
