The hotel is a bit out of the city itself, but everywhere you go you still take a taxi in this city. This hotel is nice, with a good location. On the sea. A nice,but small, pool area. You dont swim in these waters so its more for the view. We got an upgrade to a businessclass room and was... More

By accident we found ourselves in front of this hotel 3 weeks ago around 11 AM. This is your typical 4 star hotel. The service, the look. Like inside plastic tables without table clothes, middle of the road furniture. Nice but not that special either. Staff friendly but not so professional. Now there is nothing wrong with a 4 star...

Initially we were given a sea facing room on the first level on the right hand side of the hotel which was dissappointing but we requested a room on the left hand side of the hotel as the views...

I chose this hotel because it belongs to the Radisson Blu hotels and remained not disappointed. The service was overall perfect, my Business Class room very spacious and comfortable. The views towards the Atlantic Ocean are worth the extra money! This hotel is well connected with the Waterfront thanks to a shuttle bus. It also provides reliable taxi services for... More

I use the Radisson for both business and personal use and it has always impressed me for a number of reasons.
