“As workers complete the building and fit-out works on the 336-room hotel, employees are training on-site,” said a spokesperson for the hotel, adding that “training is a key part of the St Regis Doha experience, to enable staff to anticipate guests’ needs and build the reputation of the hotel as the ‘finest address’ in Doha.”
Tareq Derbas, general manager of the hotel, said: “We have brought a significant number of staff to the hotel early, in order to provide a comprehensive training programme before we open our doors to guests.”
“Our plan is to make our opening season one of the highlights of the social calendar in Doha, and we are confident that we have assembled the right team to deliver this unique experience for people in Qatar and for luxury enthusiasts from around the world,” he added.
At the end of 2011, members of the hotel team gathered for a ‘Let the Legacy Begin’ event ahead of the opening, scheduled to take place in the first half of this year.
