Oryx Lounge
★4.4(2,999 reviews)DOH
DOH's alliance lounge for SkyTeam and Star Alliance passengers.
Oryx Lounge is an airside contract lounge at Hamad International Airport serving SkyTeam and Star Alliance passengers. With Qatar Airways being a oneworld carrier, travellers flying SkyTeam and Star Alliance member airlines through Doha use Oryx as their alliance lounge. Access is for premium-cabin passengers and eligible status holders on those alliances. The lounge offers a contemporary setting with comfortable seating, a buffet and refreshments before departure. It is a smaller, more functional space than Qatar Airways' flagship Al Safwa and Al Mourjan lounges, but it is the appropriate choice for non-oneworld alliance travellers at DOH.
Crowding · comfortable
Workable. Some desks with power and Wi-Fi cover basic working needs, though it lacks the dedicated work zones of the larger Qatar Airways lounges.
Oryx offers a contract-lounge dining spread suited to its alliance clientele — a buffet of hot and cold dishes spanning international and Middle Eastern options, with a self-service bar and coffee station. It is a solid pre-flight meal stop rather than a fine-dining experience, sufficient for a SkyTeam or Star Alliance passenger before a connection.
