More than 40 Radisson Blu hotels and resorts in Asia Pacific recently celebrated Blu Day, which marked Radisson Blu’s fourth birthday in this region. Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group’s upper upscale brand, Radisson Blu, has much to celebrate, having welcomed 10 million guests in Asia Pacific since planting its flag here four years ago.

To commemorate the occasion, Radisson Blu hotels and resorts organized fun and exciting activities for their guests. In line with this year’s theme of ‘Blu is for Me’, hotel teams dressed in blue, decorated their hotels in blue and demonstrated tremendous creativity in making the event their own and finding new ways of engaging guests and celebrating Blu Daywith them.
