KATARA TOWER: Qatar’s New Landmark of Luxury and Perfection on the Arabian Gulf | WELT Documentary
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 авг 2023
- The Katara Tower, Doha. After 10 years of planning and construction, these two towers are a symbol of Qatar on the Arabian Gulf. In just 12 weeks, two luxury hotels will open on 37 floors each, with almost 500 suites and hotel rooms as well as 18 restaurants, bars and cafes. Money is no object- as the goal is to surpass all previous mega-hotels on the Gulf. With the world's largest chandelier at a height of 57 meters and the world's only multimedia kaleidoscope in a hotel lobby, there are only 80 days left to finish on time. An almost impossible task for Christian Hirth, the German manager of both hotels. Despite construction sites everywhere, the team and Christian Hirth are meticulous in their attention to detail and ensure that everything is absolutely perfect before it opens. Two weeks before the opening, the 1,130 employees from 73 countries finally see their uniforms for the first time. Join us as we explore this mega-hotel, the new landmark of Doha.

21:52 That head chef got a towering attitude...
because he's the boss and is HIM?
As an Ex Hotel GM , who opened a luxury hotel or two and spent years managing hotels in the Middle East and Asia, I recognize lots of the pre-opening stress, the endless lists of things " to do" the co-ordination requirements between suppliers, differing departments, owners, prospective guests, government folk who want a peak and the one abiding knowledge that there just isnt enough time. And probably that opening date wasnt within your control and that you wish there were 3 months more. etc......
Perfectly said,I miss working in hotel
Too grand for me?
Yoo you need boorger n starkbark gotta say much

You missed seeing slaves build it
I’m so glad there are people that can do all the little things that makes ones stay amazing. To the little candies/snacks left in the room to house keeping that has to clean up after rich slobs. For all of them to still be professionals all while being yelled at by management, at least some of the time, astounds me.
There’s a reason why some of us fix things for a living while others create, clean, direct, guide, manage, etc, etc, etc. I like being a mechanic, because my jobs don’t have feelings and have an owner that’s glad you showed up, even though they know it’s costing them money.
The people in the service industry are a different breed, an amazing breed, they have to be to want to see people smile. KUDOS to everyone in these industries.
The excitement, the stress, can’t imagine what the future staff is feeling!
the pressure when working in luxury hotels like this is really huge. this reminds me of the time working in the Palace ... first few months or even years of adjusting to the pressure and the work environment and coping with stress. Luckily i have overcomed it until 12 yrs. The experience taught me a lot of things and im thankful.
Where did you work?
So u was a slave

Flying from europe to asia with qatar airways I recommend to stop in Doha for few days. City is really worth seeing and you can rest comfortably in hotel between long flghts.
For staff to be this loyal and love for the place they work in means that not only does their employer look after them but also pays them well.
I was working there within 3 months as surveyor I was so depress because that time coz it has always urgent.but I'm thankful with that my experiences. 🙏🙏🙏
I hope they paid you well, as well as all the other 8000 workers. The hotel will charge an arm and a leg to stay and dine there, but unfortunately the workers who built it and now service it will only benefit from that place when they leave, if they leave, that they can put it in their C.V. Other than that, the money won’t be worth the stress and vigorous training they will endure.
@@furball8967 right, look at all these people in the comments..... they dont give a single shit about things like that. vultures
Qatar is a beautiful country Alhamdulila 🇸🇦😍. 🇸🇦
Ai.....
I have never experienced anything remotely close to this. It's fascinating how much preparation goes into the experience. BEAUTIFUL!!

Germans and The Dutch are really smart at building amazing buildings
Exactly! 😅 I thought the same! I almost wanted to be there helping make the decisions for interior design in the rooms myself!
Usually built by Turkish or Chineses engineering companies if those building in mid east
Baloney...
I just hope that each and every employee is paid well.
Couting down the time before the first guests put me on tension yet I'm here just watching. Glad to be here in Doha, Qatar to witness all the beautiful skies.
The shapes they can make buildings in these days is astonishing
Persian Gulf has beautiful countries around all the regions in Persian Gulf as great hospitality and beautiful cultures .
Imagine a duststorm when you open that balcony😂
I was once an employee of 5 star hotels in Dubai, namely the Kempinski and The Address Hotels + Resorts (Also operates The Armani Hotel + Resorts). I've been through this process, I was part of the Emirates Palace contigent team and the Address Hotel Dubai Marina. It was fun and at the same time heart-wrenching. The Gulf has the best hotels in the world, even here in Canada, luxury hotels like Ritz-Carlton doesn't met theat level of standard.
Oil at $100 USD gives you that!
The worst part of this documentary is that it ends!
Don't watch it then.
cry some more @@deoclips9056
Ai ..........!!//¡//.
Amazing point of view .. I too wish it went on to the actual opening day and perhaps a few weeks in.
I was in Qatar for a week but couldn't go outside because of too much heat, man even 4am in the mornings it feel like Hellfire it's hard to breathe and when you breath you feel like you are breathing fire 🔥 😂
i'm from Iraq and i feel really proud of Qatar
Germans insist on quality n time frame n their love for art can b seen in their work congrats to the team superb work of art n it's a masterpiece that should b lauded n thanks to the Emir too. Doha is beautiful 😍✨❤I luv the country ❤
Ai ...........i....
It's pretty hard to take you seriously when you can't seem to spell correctly.
salute to the workforce which comes from distant lands, leaving their homes behind. more than the impressive structure and ostentatious setting - it is the people who make this place special.
You mean the slave labor??? Yes, kudos to those who have died for the rich to have such luxurious hotel rooms. 🤬
It's mindblowing to think of this luxury in the desert! This documentary was very inspiring of many levels and made my day! Thank you!
Inspiring for what ? Spending money that you have not had to work hard for. Wasting free oil money. Middle eastern countries have just been enjoying the free oil money over the last 70 years. Party is about to come to an end. Better prepare themselves to work hard, rather than sitting on their back sides and idling.
Just how it’s mind blowing to find things in the jungle or forests… desert is no different

Beautiful design! Truly incredible the coordination. I wonder how it all smells, new products, construction, are they scenting everything…. Hope it’s just fresh clean air.
Cardboard and steel
Wow!!! I hope one day to visit their hotel soon and is definitely on my bucket list. Good job guys!
Around a thousand years ago Imam Muhammad Al Ghazali told story of a man walking in the jungle. A roaring lion ran towards him and the man ran as fast as he could to escape from it. He noticed a well in front of him and he jumped inside hoping to escape from the lion. As he was falling inside the well, he grabbed onto the rope and saved himself. The man was so relieved but when he looked down he saw a big snake at the bottom of the well. It had its jaws wide open ready to swallow him up. The man then looked up and saw two mice nibbling at the rope. A black mouse and a white were both chewing into the rope. The scary lion was still prowling outside the well. The man's heart was pounding as he wondered how he could escape from this. Then he noticed a honeycomb in front of him which had delicious honey dripping from it. He stuck his finger into the honey and put it inside his mouth. It was delicious and for a moment he forgot about the lion, the snake and the two mice chewing at the rope. Imam Ghazali explained that the lion is like the angel of death which is always looming above us. The snake was like his grave which all humans will face. The black mouse and white mouse were like the day and night which are always nibbling at our life (the rope). The honey was like this dunya (this temporal world) which with its momentary sweetness makes us forget the death and the eternal life.
What the heck is a "bucket list" it sounds revolting.
I wanted to see how the elevators work because its hard to envision a vertical elevator shaft with the curved structures.
On each of the curves it is possible to draw a straight vertical line.
I loved the education of this 6-Star Hotel documentary. As expansive as it is and luxurious. I was underwhelmed with the dining area. I have so much respect for the workers. Wow it must be very stressful to say the least. Can’t wait to see the pool or the outside. I haven’t finished watching the video.

Though I will never be able to sit at a table of this magnificent hotel, I admire the beauty and praise the builders.
I'm nearly crying amazing best of the best professionals
WOW! Awesome. I love the unique design. I just updated my bucket list. 🙏
Stop saying "bucket list" it is horrible.
Mesmerizing landmark. Good - easily to recognize and remember city and country.
So I have remembered the name, the place and the architecture.
More landmarks like this - more attractive the world.
I don't see my self going to a place like that with big building everywhere 😅feel already depress by looking 😅
Ikr. Looks depressing to watch too. 😬😅
It's rare for a new skyscraper to not give me a sense of revulsion in some form. This design is very striking and beautiful while being realistic, not outlandish like so many seem to be today.
It's Satanic symbolism...
Satanic Occult Witchcraft to be more specific... Alchemy...
Fantastic!🤩💥 What a splendid creation! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This is like definitely taken over the luxury building in Dubai. This is OP!!
Taken hotels to another level
stunning project again in Qatar. mind blowing mega structure
I bet the builders are super proud. It is a beautiful building and work of art ! It is absolutely dreamy ! I love the grandeur. It is on a level we don't see anymore. Gorgeous !!! Bravo !!!
It was built by slaves
Breathtaking !!!
Wow Amazing building
This documentary was, as the hotel is... Perfection.
Beautiful work by all involved, the production, The editing, the camera work and everything all involved. Extremely well done.
Definitely a six star documentary. 👍👍
I would love to go stay at this hotel, but unfortunately I don't think I have the pedigree.
One can dream I guess..
Ya cool with the near slave-labour work?
what do you mean "pedigree"?
I feel much sympathy for the staff working at The Katara Towers. One wrong move and they'll be out!
AMAZING DESIGN!!
Wow the Katara towers look great thanks to Christian Hirt n all those people who laboured into making it such a wonderful place to visit. Yeah the FIFA World Cup was well organised watched it. Qatar is on my bucket list. Thanks ❤🌹🙏❤❤❤❤❤
........ai......
What the hell is a "bucket list" - sounds dreadful.
Congratulations katara towers 🥰🥰🥰🥰🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Love for Qatar from Nepal ❤️🇳🇵🇶🇦❤️
Wow, excellent documentary
I love the coloring !
Where is the Arabian Gulf? I can't find it on the map.
hahahaha
Its the Persian gulf for the normal people. But for the special ones Arabian hahaha
Obviously this video was made in a parallel universe, the building is really a star gate to another reality.
@@androcarot9288it's called for people persian gulf in all human historical documents maps and camels gulf for animals history
Who in the world paid to have this thing built like I don’t understand why they didn’t go bankrupt
It should b iadded to the Guinness Book of Records ❤
I really wished this place was open when i was in Doha last year.
What an incredibly amazing building.
of course we appreciated the luxury of service and amenities of these hotels being offered. but knowing how these people behind who made/build such things possible was totally astounding.
Do you mean free labour from South Asia?
Cheap indian labor?

First of all, it looks like the symbol of the clan from Conan the Barbarian. Second, if there was ever a portal to another dimension....
This must be a 10 star 🌟 hotel. Beautiful. Would like to visit it one of these days.
Amazing architects and builders. 🙌❤
A magnificent building,very unusual, great architecture,I imagine an expensive hotel, great for Qatar. The Arabia peninsula is completely transformed into a great place to live ✌️❤️🇬🇧
It's called persian gulf
@@AlirezaHezareh The Arabian Peninsula and the Persian Gulf are two separate geological places… for one is a peninsula and the other is a gulf…
Fun Fact: there is no such thing as 6 or more Star Rating Hotel
@drafteethewhitetrhfggot7227 Self Declared, not officially recognised
I love the building! Just
When class meets money. Perfection. I'm sure you guys are going to do very well. Delightful. Superlative German excellence to match.
That just looks wicked. Like a portal or something.
It's the symbol of Satan.
Great presentation! As a travel professional and planning to visit the Raffles, Fairmont or both hotel properties in Doha I am very impressed with the design of the building and I am appreciating being made aware of how the staff are trained, the food is prepared, and the background workings of the hotel(s). I am a stickler for excellence so I am truly looking forward to visiting and experiencing all that the hotel(s) have to offer for myself as well as my potential clientele. I am impressed with the attention to detail. And what I have seen so far is amazing!
I myself am a sturno bum professional.
Do you think they serve spam and gritz? 😀💩
@@ihavethedocuments2580

I'm sure if they did serve that it would be absolutely amazing and probably cost an arm and a leg.

Wow, that's beautiful.
Great job , a master piece
Chapeau to everybody involved in this project, great job! I could now go on with a couple of things, but first German Managers/Chefs have some of the best reputation for large scale projects. Earlier someone made a comment to that the employees work for long time. Most of them are below 30 and unfortunately not many many of them will still be there in 5-10 years, for private reasons and guest like to see young employees especially at the front of house, housekeeping etc.
Maravilhoso, suntuosidade...beleza, funcionalismo, sem.igual..sonho de Hotel!!! Magnitude em seu explendor❤
Excited as i am staff here. Well done.
Impressive.....like wow!
I want to work there . 3 years of experience luxurious Hotel including Fairmont Riyadh. I think it will be amazing and huge experience for me
as long as you fine with giving up your passport, very few days off and possibly not getting paid depending on how management feels . then i’m sure you’ll do great 😁
Thousands of poor men would die to build this place, while an equal amount of rich men would die to stay in this place. This place is extravagant and beautiful, but at the cost of many consequences.
Superb hotel ! Arata foarte bine cu o Poarta Stelara !
What a beautiful hotel ! Wow !
Wow amazing doha qatar 🇶🇦 ❤❤❤❤❤❤
"Verily, only through the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest" Glorious Qur'an, The Last and The Final Testament. Thank you.
Incredible architectural marvel! Fascinated by the engineering challenges behind constructing such iconic skyscrapers, especially in the unique conditions of Qatar.
What a place !!! Absolutely incredible ❤❤
@kevinlucas8437, it is a beautiful place, would love to visit! What I thought was a bit funny is there was a kitty walking towards the hotel @47:10 and I wanted to think for a moment that as the doors opened at the red carpet and the two ladies standing there, they were welcoming the kitty!🐈😄
wow!!!beautiful!
The head of House Keeping is a true professional. You could tell the young man was getting in her way, however she was patient and the gentleman was wise to use her knowledge. Good team contrast there.
//em//!!//¡//¡//.....
Absolutely amazing... but lets not forget those 8000 hard working labours who constructed the tower.. those hundreds who lost their lives and many more who got sick due to the scorching sun 🌞. Those inhuman treatment of labours by their contractors and the underpaid wages.
Do you have proof of this? Is like to see it.
Also let’s not forget the ethnic cleansing of Muslims in Bhutan..
For the people talking about the construction workers , have you seen it with your own eyes or you're just blindly hearing stuff and believing it?? I've lived in Dubai for more than 15 years , sure the workers live in bad conditions , but that's hard labour jobs for ya. It's not a 5 star hotel , they come there for work , not to fool around. Show me any construction site in the world , they live the same way , even worse. Construction workers get breaks and days off most of the time , they always walk and gather around in parks and budget cafes , they walk around in malls and throughout the city just like all the other employees who are on a working visa. So stop spreading misinfo and believing nonsense. Other countries are just jealous of Arab people being the richest in the world and having the safest countries in the world. If the Gulf was so bad , then why does the whole world go there as tourists and job seekers??
But lets not forget that those 8000-10000 claimed construction death figures are absolutely false and those figures are actually of all south east asian people that died in Qatar over a 10 years period of all ages of all genders of all types of work and not just construction worker and that figure was weaponized into a propaganda hit piece that was made and regurgitated by other news companies and spread out of sheer hatred, envy and racism toward Arabs.
❤❤❤
@@judejaradat1446👍👍👍
Awesome and very hard working people
Absolutely beautiful
Qatar always the best love and respect from Algeria 🇩🇿
Respect to 🇩🇿 also👋
For me working with different nationalities is fascinating. Seeing different color of the skin and hearing different foreign accents
Ur racist bro
Is so pleasing to watch. On another note Germans are attentive to details.
It was so cool flying in to Qatar last week the airport is so easy and wonderful to get in and out of I was impressed
Very cool!
Wow, it’s very beautiful.
I hope the staff are treated well.
If I use Qatar Air again I may see if I can do an overnight.
😊
Not too bad around $500 Aussie 👍🏼
Holla!! Its looks like a huge Space portal to another universe.😂
Could be a portal to Asgard. 😂😂
Wow I really miss so much working on hospitality designs 🫠…so proud to see my former client RAFFLES Group still maintaining their standards & raising their bar high. As a concept hospitality designer👨🏻🎨, i used to working on designing 3-4 different HOTEL Clients operators from Raffles to Shanghai La to Oberoi Hotel in India. Every continents have their own uniqness, F&B depts I found it very interesting from cooking best steaks to deep fried Hong Kong Chinese wok …love to see all captured well from this video. Beautifully done! Congrats!🎉❤ from 🇲🇾
Ai .....
Very special video nice
Realy I like this video
Its Persian Gulf, has always been 🔅
@WeltDocumentary, This is absolutely amazing! Just need to correct the title, it’s Persian Gulf, not Arabian Gulf.
It has been named Arabian gulf before any Persian state existed.
@@Harshharsh111 so its been Arabian gulf for 2500 years? your ignorance is outstanding
@@Harshharsh111it's called Persian gulf since 3 thousand years ago Arabs were nomadic bandits groups in desserts all historical maps documents called Persian gulf
I'm not in hospitality domain, but i got so much knowledge about there hospitality level , thank you so much for sharing this practical knowledge as detail wise
20 years of Hope
Next level stuff from Qatar,
Number one country in the Middle East 👏,
Loved the World Cup they hosted last year too World Class stuff always👌👍🇶🇦.
Am I the only one who gets a "Lord of the Rings" vibe from the outer design? 😋 Lots of work, but it'll be amazing to visit.
Top notch..
43:58 - Gordon Ramsay would fail the silence test.
The way Katara Tower treats its employees is very heart warming...a major contrast to the horrible stories we hear from Dubai.
If you want the West to patronize the East.....standards of both human rights and luxury will have to be exceptional. The West looks askance at paternalistic societies. After all, it was because of the cruelty of autocratic European societies that the West came to dominate the world. The East must adopt to Western aolues or else perish as oil supplies and need dwindles.
Stories from Qatar are worst
The stories from Qatar aint any better...
The cameras are on tho
Love the lies? How naive are you? Born yesterday? 🤬
It's not as difficult to build wealth and financial freedom as many think. With the right information, creating wealth and sustaining financial stability is much simpler. The only real way to earn a high income and maintain your wealth indefinitely is to participate in financial programmes and products.

That is why I work with Joseph Sylvan Anderson, who introduced me to a better financial community, a reputable organisation where I learned how money functions and how to make it, as well as free books, courses, and daily lectures. Furthermore, you get to socialise with new people, which was the best choice I ever made.
Thank you so much for the advice. Your coach was simple to discover online. I did my research on him before I scheduled our phone call. He appears knowledgeable based on his online resume.
This is precisely why I like having a professional advise me on market moves because their entire skill set is based on taking both long and short positions while also using risk management and market knowledge. I've been following Joseph Sylvan Anderson's advice for more than three years, and during that time I've made over $1 million.
I'm in my early 40s and my biggest regret is not investing sooner. I missed so much compounding time. I'm definitely getting through to Joseph Sylvan Anderson and thanks for having this here btw
Impressive and beautiful
Very interesting
