Radisson Hotel Group continues to expand its presence in Romania with a series of exciting new developments. Recognising Romania as a key market for development, these projects will enhance the Group’s portfolio and offer unique experiences for both business and leisure travellers.
One of the standout additions is the recent signing of Radisson RED Bucharest Old Town. This new project involves the transformation of an office building dating back to the 1940s, historically serving as the offices for the Institute of Hydroelectric Studies. The building will undergo a comprehensive renovation and repurposing to feature 104 guest rooms in the historic Old Town area, offering guests a unique blend of modern amenities and historical charm. Radisson RED Bucharest Old Town will be the first Radisson RED property in the country upon its opening in 2027 and the fourth hotel of the Group in Bucharest, a city identified as a key growth hub for the Group.
Further enhancing the diverse offerings in the region, Radisson Hotel Group presents Radisson Blu Grand Mountain Resort, Brasov, with the opening scheduled for early 2027. Nestled amidst the picturesque Carpathian Mountains, this resort will offer an idyllic escape for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike.
Additionally, the Radisson Blu Resort & Residences, Mamaia, set to open in 2028, promises to elevate the luxury travel experience in Romania’s premier seaside resort. Located on the stunning Black Sea coast, this state-of-the-art project will feature 234 hotel rooms and 102 branded residences.
The highly anticipated Radisson Lagoon Hotel Bucharest will be located within Bucharest’s Central District Lagoon City. This upscale urban resort-style hotel will feature 323 rooms, a spa, a 1,100 sqm exclusive sandy beach, and access to a 10,000 sqm lagoon. Guests will enjoy elegant rooms with panoramic lagoon views, exceptional dining options, and numerous commercial areas. The resort will also offer a state-of-the-art wellness centre and multiple swimming pools, ensuring a comprehensive and luxurious experience for all visitors.
Elie Younes, Executive Vice President & Chief Development Officer, comments: “Romania is a dynamic and rapidly growing market for hotel development. The country’s recent accession to the Schengen Area is expected to boost travel, trade, and tourism by eliminating border controls and facilitating easier movement of capital. This development, combined with Romania’s size, rich cultural heritage, stunning landscapes, and vibrant cities, makes it a candidate for focused growth.”
