Doha layover
I've got a 16 hour layover at Doha arriving at 11pm and probably departing at noon the next day. My flight is at 330pm. Which would be a good property to stay at? I'm partial to Park or Andaz as I think the GH is too far from the airport. I have stayed at the HR Oryx before and it was nice, but I thought I'd check out the others. I would like the opinion of people who have stayed at either Park or Andaz. I am not looking to walk around outside the hotel grounds. Just luxuriate inside the rooms, have a good breakfast and then leave. Ease of getting a cab or Uber (do theyhave it in Qatar) would help.
Thank you
Thank you

I stayed at the PH during a layover last year and really liked it. Proactive upgrade to a suite as a Globalist, nice breakfast (buffet + a la carte), great gym (but I can only speak to the ladies gym, they were separate). I'm booked there again for my next DOH layover. I've also stayed at the HR Oryx and it's very nice, especially at its price point, but if cost and a slightly further commute to the airport aren't limiting factors, I'd choose the PH. I've never had any trouble getting a cheap Uber quickly at any property I've stayed at in Doha, even the ones much further afield.
