CHICAGO (July 31, 2009) - Grand Hyatt Doha has opened its Arabian-inspired Jaula Spa, redefining exclusivity, relaxation and spa luxury in the region. Jaula means “journey” in Arabic and Jaula Spa is designed to guide guests on a journey toward inner calm and beauty. Set on the grounds of Grand Hyatt Doha, this 43,000-square-foot (4,000-square-meter) sanctuary features 12 luxurious treatment suites, including two couples suites, a relaxation area with a tranquility pool, a health club, a retail boutique and a ladies’ salon. The VIP and couples suites offer a whirlpool, a lounging area and extensive space for relaxation.
“We are delighted to debut Jaula Spa as well as our new health club,” said Garry Friend, general manager, Grand Hyatt Doha. “Both hotel guests and residents of Qatar will appreciate the facility’s serene, rejuvenating atmosphere since its aroma, music and design reflect the country’s heritage and Arabian inspirations.”
Spa Treatments
Jaula Spa offers an all-senses immersion into the natural delights of Qatar. Signature treatments focus on ritualistic approaches using fine European treatments and therapies that include indigenous Arabian touches and natural ingredients from Qatar.
Spa director Karunanithi M said, “The spa menu of services was designed specifically to embrace elements of Qatar’s natural heritage. Hyatt Pure believes in developing a spa discovery plan, and incorporating the local culture into each guests’ experience.”
