Radisson Hotel Group has expanded its footprint in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), with the opening of a new 537-room five-star city property.

The new Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Barsha Heights hotel provides guests access to major shopping and leisure destinations such as Mall of the Emirates, Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah, and JBR.

It is accessible via the nearby metro and is approximately a 25 to 30-minute drive from Dubai International Airport.

Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Barsha Heights can accommodate short and extended stays for business and leisure visitors.

The property features five dining venues, leisure and wellness facilities, and 16 venues for meetings and events. Facilities include modern audiovisual equipment, flexible configurations, and access to natural daylight in several rooms.

These amenities address the needs of corporate travellers, families, and those seeking longer stays.

Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Barsha Heights’ location, transport connections, range of accommodations, and variety of facilities aim to serve both local and international visitors to Dubai’s central districts.

Radisson Hotel Group Middle East, Africa and Southeast Asia Pacific chief operating officer Tim Cordon said: “The opening of Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Barsha Heights marks another important addition to our growing portfolio in the UAE and reflects our continued focus on strengthening our presence in key urban destinations across the region.

“With its prime location, spacious accommodation, vibrant dining offering, and extensive meeting facilities, the hotel is exceptionally well-positioned to serve the needs of both business and leisure travellers.”
