If you love to shop and are planning a trip to the Middle East, then make sure to head to Doha where you will find a diverse array of shopping options. Shopaholics should look to stay at well placed serviced apartments Doha has to offer such as Somerset West Bay Doha. These Doha service apartments in the Diplomatic Area are walking distance from one of the premier shopping venues in the city, the City Centre Mall.

One of the biggest malls in the Middle East, the City Centre Mall has around 350 shops selling a diverse array of items. Home to a Debenhams, fast food outlets and cinemas, this mall also features an ice-skating rink and bowling alleys adding further entertainment to a day of shopping. Also worth visiting is the Landmark Shopping Mall where one will find a Virgin Megastore, Marks & Spencer’s and a multiplex cinema. For a more traditional shopping experience head to the Souq Waqif where old world charm abounds amidst an outdoor street market where one can purchase handicrafts, Bedouin weavings, perfumes and more. Equally enthralling is the Gold Souq and the Omani Market each with their own unique atmosphere.
