Hotels — Middle East — Qatar

Although limited details have been released, it is thought that the interior space will be designed to in-keep with the hotel's ultra-modern, minimal theme

Luxury suites with separate access points and private pools are among the floating resort's accommodation offering, which will also include standard rooms and short-term residences

The hotel will offer spectacular 360° views through floor-to-ceiling windows throughout the property

A rooftop pool, spa and nightclub promise to keep sun-seeking guests entertained

The waterborne behemoth will boast independent sewage treatment, power generation and recycling capabilities, meaning it can coast from location to location without relying on land-based infrastructure

''A floating hotel is a viable option for areas where land is scarce, fully developed or challenging to develop,'' say design partners Admares, who specialise in floating real estate

The resort will offer all amenities expected of a luxury hotel, including office facilities in suites and and a full range of in-room services to attract jet setting VIPs from across the globe

The exterior architecture can be fully customised to suit the location's surroundings and a garage can be built into the hotel complex to guarantee guest parking spots in busy cities like Doha
