Accommodation in Qatar : Which areas are best ? What is the average price for a villa?

Hi Gouri,

When it comes to accommodation in Doha, you'll rarely find a 2-bedroom villa. Villas tend to be more suitable for family. If you are looking for a 2 bedroom apartment then you'll find that prices vary drastically according to where you choose to live.

A two bedroom place in Al Saad will cost between QAR 7,000 and QAR 9,000 a month but a two bedroom apartment in the Pearl will cost between  QAR 14,000 and QAR 16,000 per month.

I think you will find the expat arrivals page on the Cost of Living in Qatar very useful.

In terms of where you choose to live. The cheapest accomodation will be found in Al Muntazah or Najma, closely followed by Bin Mahmoud. Get more details on these areas by reading these pages on Accomodation in Qatar and Areas and Suburbs of Qatar.

Good luck and please feel free to ask if you have any more questions.

so how is the hotel job market in qatar

Hi Anonymous,

You will find that there are quite a lot of job opportunities for expats in the hospitality industry. There will be a number of hotels, guest houses and restraunts that will be under construction for the 2022 FIFA World Cup. So hospitality is an industry that is growing.

Futhermore, 85% of Qatar's workforced is made up of expats. However, you will need to secure a job and get a sponsor before you will be granted a work visa for Qatar. 

Have a read of our Working in Qatar page to find out more about the job Market in Qatar and tips of securing the perfect job for you.

Best of luck.
