The Torch Doha opens its doors to public

The Torch, Qatar's iconic landmark, has announced its entrance on the luxury hotels market as the flagship project situated at the heart of Doha's Sport City.
At 300m high and with 360° panoramic views across the whole of Doha, the hotel is a haven for the discerning traveler, be they sports enthusiasts, business leaders, or health and wellness seekers.
Located in the middle of Aspire Zone, Doha's Sports City, the Torch is the premier venue for those who are searching for state-of-the-art sporting, leisure and rehabilitation facilities. The tower is the result of comprehensive architectural, engineering and technical design, formerly shaped to represent a colossal torch which for the duration of the 15th Asian Games in 2006 held its symbolic flame, the tallest and highest positioning of a games flame to date.

The Torch Doha was proud to host Doha GOALS Forum — Gathering of all Leaders in Sport — aimed at producing innovative initiatives informed by the values of Sport and its role for social and economic development.
