The tickets need to be on 157-xxxx stock (QR) and the layover has to be for a minimum of 12 hours.
Confirmed by QR:
Offer valid for Qatar Airways confirmed ticket holders only.

For two (or more) people travelling together both outward and return hotels can be booked on separate tickets.

To be completed think it would be useful to mention advantages / Distances from attractions here but mine is:
Warwick Doha

By far Uber is the best option in Qatar and is easy to book using the Airport and the hotel wifi.

You mean the Eid al-Fitr (holiday after Ramadan)? I think the current offer excludes all holidays just as the previous ones did.
Hotel occupancy is probably lower than usual during Ramadan itself, so no reasons for QR to exclude it.

It was originally $50, so I don't know when they raised it. But I'm not complaining; just booked the Intercontinental for two nights in June.

From what I understand, if I have a Round the World ticket then the stopover offer does not apply even if in First. Ticket with American #,

I was in Mariott the other night and was really surprised to hear that the WiFi at that location was paid. I haven't had that in ages! The hard product wasn't great either, so I'd avoid it in the future — the IC across the street (well, almost) was much nicer.

Cool.. had been waiting for this extension for my stopover in September. Had the choice of 4 hotels, Selected the Intercontinental. Arriving at airport 5.40, departing 19.40 so a day room to freshen up and maybe get a couple of hours of sleep is nice,
After booking I noticed on the IC website that early check in is not available. Should I be worried?

Can I ask where this is written on the Qatar website? When I click through to the +Qatar page on the website it still shows book by 28th Feb 18 and complete travel by 30th April...
