Hotels throughout Doha are preparing to celebrate Easter by offering a number of special packages and dining events for guests, most of which include entertainment and activities for children.

In ‘The Lagoon,’ the buffet on April 12 will feature a seafood BBQ which will be accompanied by entertainment for children on the lawns.
“The need to engage children during Easter with wholesome activities, such as Easter-egg hunts, face painting and live bunnies on the lawns of Lagoon cannot be underestimated. At The Ritz-Carlton, Doha our aim is to provide guests with exceptional dining experiences and fun activities for families to enjoy,” said Morrison.
