Coworking in West Bay.
Updated May 2026West Bay is Doha's CBD spine — Tornado Tower, Doha Tower, Commercial Bank Plaza, QFC Tower, Burj Al Gassar — basically every premium Doha address. Servcorp anchors three towers here, Nestwork (formerly Workinton Qatar) operates two West Bay sites, and the QFC Tower hosts the QFC-licensed serviced floor. For QFC license-holders, West Bay is mandatory. For LSC mainland or QFZ free zone, it's optional but typical. Pricing tracks Dubai DIFC roughly, slightly below.
