Radisson Blu has announced the opening of its seventh hotel in Istanbul – Radisson Blu Hotel, Istanbul Atakoy.
Located in the Bakirkoy district of Atakoy, the Radisson Blu Hotel, Istanbul Atakoy sits midway between Ataturk International Airport and Istanbul Old Town. Its location on the shores of the Marmara Sea puts guests within walking distance of the Atakoy Marina and close to the Old City and Bakirkoy Ferry Station.
“Radisson Blu is the leading upscale hotel brand in Istanbul. Our latest addition in Atakoy is another beautiful Turkish delight, fueling our strong ambitions to grow across the country. We plan to add another eight hotels, resorts and residences shortly,” said Mark Willis, Area Vice President Middle East & Turkey, The Rezidor Hotel Group.
The 133 high-fashion inspired guest rooms include 12 Business Class, 13 Junior Suites, 7 one-Bedroom Suites and the ultimate Presidential Suite. All guest rooms feature modern amenities including an espresso machine – and views of the shimmering Marmara Sea.
Radisson Blu offers its signature free high-speed Internet access throughout the hotel to all its guests and visitors.
“We are thrilled and incredibly proud to open this glamorous hotel in Istanbul. Both by design and nature, it embodies all that is truly iconic, stylish and sophisticated about Radisson Blu and the whole team is ready to showcase our equally beautiful and memorable Yes I Can! service to our Turkish and international guests,” says Eylem Findik, General Manager of the Radisson Blu Hotel, Istanbul Atakoy.
The hotel’s Larder Restaurant & Terrace celebrates Turkish culinary tradition by incorporating fresh, local produce and creative techniques into an extensive menu. Lobby Bar offers creative cocktails made from fresh products and also has a sophisticated setting for casual business meetings or simply mingling with friends and colleagues. And for those in a rush, Patisserie provides gourmet snacks and drinks to take away. Popular for more casual dining, Pool Bar, serves up a variety of delicious drinks and light snacks by the pool throughout the summer.
Creative and highly experienced, the hotel’s meetings and event team is skilled at organizing and hosting events regardless of the size. The hotel has four meeting rooms, all with day-light and high-quality conference technology, as well as free high-speed Internet access.
