Katara Hospitality
Katara Hospitality is a global hotel owner, developer, and operator based in Qatar, with over 50 years of industry experience. Initially established in 1970 as Qatar National Hotels Limited by the Government of Qatar, the company has since undergone significant evolution. The company is dedicated to strategic expansion, investing in premier hotels within Qatar and expanding its collection of iconic properties in key international markets across four continents. As a prominent player in the hospitality sector, Katara Hospitality primarily engages in direct investments in hotel properties and strategic partnerships, including the establishment of investment funds focused on hospitality, such as the one established with AccorHotels for Sub-Saharan Africa. This dual approach of direct ownership and management, combined with fund investment, aims to maximise the value and performance of its assets, contribute to Qatar's long-term economic vision, and promote cultural exchange.
