Rezidor opens the Radisson Blu Hotel, Gdansk in Poland

The Rezidor Hotel Group, one of the fastest growing hotel companies worldwide, has opened the Radisson Blu Hotel, Gdansk. The brand-new 134 rooms-property is Rezidor’s sixth hotel in the growing Polish market.

With a superb location in the heart of the historical part of the Main Town, the Royal Track, the Radisson Blu Hotel, Gdansk, promises to be one the most sought-after hotels in the city. Situated near the Artus Court, a symbol of the city’s powerful reign during the 16th century, the hotel acts as an important meeting place for both local and international conventions and events. It is close to beautiful narrow streets offering plenty of galleries, shops and street theatrical events, all adding to the charm of the atmosphere. With Gdansk Airport just 15 km away and abundant rail, road and sea links, the city is well connected to several major Scandinavian and Central and Western European cities.

The hotel features 134 well-designed guest rooms, including 8 suites and one luxurious Presidential Suite. All rooms come with the amenities one would expect in a stylish, upscale hotel - such as individual climate control, flat-panel LCD TV and free high-speed Internet access throughout the complex. A recreation centre promises to reinvigorate guests, offering facilities such as a fully equipped gym, sauna massage area and solarium. Equipped with the latest technology, the property’s two meeting rooms are ideal for hosting intimate seminars and events. The 165m² ballroom, with its charming historic details, is perfect for weddings, receptions and other large gatherings. Gourmets will find their paradise at the hotel, too: A historical apartment house is the setting for Rezidor’s signature award-winning French brasserie de Verres en Vers and the Sure Bar next door. www.radissonblu.com/hotel-gdansk/dining

Located on Poland’s northern coast (www.radissonblu.com/hotel-gdansk/location), Gdansk is the country’s principal seaport and a major tourist destination. Gdansk Shipyard was the birthplace of the Solidarity trade union movement, which, under the leadership of Gdansk political activist Lech Walesa (later President), played a major role in bringing an end to communist rule across Central Europe. A moving tribute to the movement can be seen in the Roads to Freedom exhibition in the shipyards. Contemporary Gdansk is one of the major centres of economic and administrative life in Poland, with many important central and local government agencies having their main offices here. Always hospitable, Gdansk invites visitors to enjoy its charm and historical legacy, its elegant restaurants and convivial cafés. Essentially flattened during World War II, the historical core of the city has been meticulously restored and can boast a bevy of fascinating sights presented against a gorgeous background of Hanseatic architecture.

The Rezidor Hotel Group is one of the fastest growing hotel companies in the world. The group features a portfolio of close to 370 hotels in operation and under development with more than 78,300 rooms in 58 countries.

Rezidor operates the brands Radisson Blu Hotels & Resorts, Regent Hotels & Resorts, Park Inn and Country Inns & Suites in Europe, Middle East and Africa, along with the goldpoints plusSM loyalty programme for frequent hotel guests.
