Qatar Holdings sets sights on Paris with future Harrods hotels

Qatar Holdings' hotel project with Harrods should eventually lead to the opening of a luxury hotel in Paris. In any case, the French capital is one of the stated objectives of Qatar's sovereign wealth fund, which will first focus on other business destinations.

Admittedly, Paris will not be the first to benefit from the Harrods hotels project dreamed up by Qatar Holdings, as the Qatari sovereign wealth fund plans to launch the first hotel version of its luxury shops in Kuala Lumpur and the London borough of Chelsea. But the City of Light is already on the short list recently unveiled by Qatari officials, alongside New York and China.
