The museum houses some beautiful pieces of Islamic history throughout. We spent a couple of hours at this beautiful museum, but thought it was a bit cost prohibitive ($50 Riyal per adult) for most of the residents of Doha. It's a shame, because everyone should have a chance to see this amazing building and the stuning collection in it.

The skyline was beautiful, couldn’t see the museum from the inside myself but the architecture was stunning. Lots of places to eat from near there too, really enjoyed my time in this area.

Spectacular museum; absolutely fascinating collection of objects beautifully curated. The museum building is modern with wonderful interior spaces and structures. Definitely will return.
I was really excited to visit this place and it didn’t disappoint. You would see a lot of historical things in here. This place is made to educate people about Islamic culture and their traditions. If it’s your first time in Qatar definitely recommend going there

I’ll start with the building itself, extremely beautiful and clean looking from outside and in. Entrance was seamless and staff were very friendly. There are 5 floors in total all floors with various themes, the museum is extremely well layout and flows nicely with some really interesting artifacts. When you get to the top there is an outdoor roof with breathtaking views of the city. This is a must see when in Qatar.
I did not expect such a modern museum to be found in Doha and for it was a quite surprise. Many really ancient masterpieces as fabric and fine jewelry made this place worth visiting for me. It has for floors of exposition and was not crowded at all so I could enjoy me time. Location is great as you can see the Doha skyline from the courtyard
Unique and beautiful! The architecture of the place is just magnificent. The content inside it is incredible, it’s unbelievable how they collected all these treasures in one place.
The visit needs 3 to 4 hours to be honest but definitely worth it.
Don’t forget to try the cafe inside the museum
The art and history were simply breathtaking. This is really is museum of history, and it is expansive. The geometry of the building is a wonder to behold. This place was one reason I traveled to Qatar. I was not disappointed

A really nice museum, spread out across four floors.

You definitely need two hours or more in there to go through everything. 50QR for entry.

So much historical content from the Islamic world. The interior design of the building was absolutely magnificent as I have never seen a Museum of this caliber before. The displays and presentation overall was outstanding. Highly recommended to visit if you’re ever in Doha.
The architecture of this place is amazing. It's a building you'll enjoy visiting especially if you're a Muslim bcos there's a whole lot to connect to, know, learn and immense yourself with. I highly recommend this museum to any Muslim tourist visiting Qatar.
Amazing spot to take in the beauty of some of the most iconic pieces of Islamic Art spanning thousands of years of tradition and human development. Meticulously crafted beautifully preserved artifacts. It's not a super large museum with only 2 floors, but the museum is beautifully architected and situated along the harbor with amazing views during sunset. Don't forget to check out the gift shop as well with a ton of interesting pieces for sale. They also offer a ticket that gives access to 3 museums (this museum, Qatar National Museum, Qatar Olympic and Sports Museum) over 7 days for the price of just 2 one day museum entry tickets.
The exhibits don't overwhelm you and everything is nicely organized. You also get good views of the Doha skyline from the area outside the museum.
Would 100% recommend to anyone interested in learning the cultural and historical background of Islam and other religions that has shaped it. I saw ancient artefacts, jewellery, architecture among other things- it makes me wonder on the depth of details and skills our ancestors had and how we have lost most of it in the name of “automation”.
Immerse yourself in the wonders of an extraordinary museum, where a plethora of captivating artifacts awaits your exploration. I was truly enamored and thoroughly enjoyed my visit, and I'm certain you will fall in love with this enchanting place as well.
Went there in the month of May, so it was pretty hot in the day, my advise is to stay indoors in the daytime. Good place for a sunset view. Price for per person is 50 QR. a very good view of city skyline from here.
