Hi all,

I would like to ask your opinion guys who is in qatar right now. if it is possible to find a accommodation which is near to west bay doha. Honestly, i don't have any idea in qatar. Currently,I am working in abu dhabi, united arab emirates but since the offer in qatar is high than in abu dhabi so i guess, its time for me to look forward too. if the salary offer in qatar is 11,000 QAR. it is fine already? total package salary including accommodation and etc..hope you can give me an opinion guys..thanks in advance to those who will comment. I am searching for accommodation which is monthly rate maximum to 2500.. for 1 room...I am moving to qatar next month.

West bay area is expensive, it depends on your lifestyle but you can find a more cheaper room in other area which is 15-20 mins away from west bay, depending on the traffic of course. Ask if transportation allowance is included on the package or company provided. If not, then you can allocate some savings on accomodation budget to use or hire a carlift or better to buy a car..transport in qatar is difficult

Yes, you may be able to find a single room around QR 2500. However,it may not be in West Bay. This is costly area.
