Amid the news Middle Eastern carriers would ramp up flights to Doha for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, more and more fans have been looking into staying in a neighbouring GCC city.
As hotel rooms become almost impossible to book in Doha itself – and prices for those rooms continue to increase – it has been projected that the sporting event will have a ‘halo effect’ for hotels in nearby cities.
With this in mind, our collegues at Time Out Dubai have curated a list of Dubai hotels close to the airport, noting their prices throughout November and their segment in the market.
