We booked our trip at short notice and got a special deal so we were a little apprehensive about what the hotel might be like. We were not disappointed.

Stayed at this hotel in April 2013. Junior Suite on the 21st floor. Large room with good amenities. Plenty of space if you were staying as a family or for a longer length of time. Fantastic views. Hotel is really central with city shops, bars and restaurant on the doorstep. Staff were polite and the main entrance of the hotel... More

Fabntastic location and all the comfort you'd expect of a Radisson Blu. Located just on the edge of the city centre and a short walk from the railway ststion, its ideal for business or tourists. The Italian restaurant is excellent, although there's sop much choice in the city, it would almost be a shame to eat in the hotel. Bar... More
