The rooms offer everything you expect from Radisson: high-speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning, smart TVs, comfortable beds, and well-thought-out ergonomics — nothing extra, everything exactly where it should be.

Radisson RED is conceived as a social hub — not just a hotel, but a gathering place for those who successfully combine leisure, work, and an active lifestyle.
