I'm flying Canberra-Sydney-Doha- Oslo with Qatar in business class. Overnight hotel stay is included at Doha for a 9 hour transit.
My allocated hotel is not airside but the Oryx Rotana, about 5km away by airport shuttle. Apparently getting an airport hotel or one outside the airport is subject to availability.
Question - has anyone been successful in getting Qatar to change their transit hotel location from an outside location to the airport hotel? Given the short transit time I would prefer to be at the airport. I emailed the Qatar call centre but they couldn't change it.

9 hours is plenty of time and it's easy to get in and out of the airport. There is also dedicated F and J check in when departing.
