Elena Dementieva and Janette Husárová were the defending champions, but had different outcomes. Dementieva had to withdraw due to a left foot strain, while Husárová teamed up with Elena Likhovtseva and reached the semifinals.

Virginia Ruano Pascual and Paola Suárez won the title, defeating Kim Clijsters and Ai Sugiyama 6–3, 4–6, 6–4 in the final.
