Radisson set to make first landing on France’s northern coast

Radisson Hotel Group announced the signing of the Radisson Resort Sangatte Blériot-Plage in France. It marks the Radisson brand’s debut in the country, where it will become part of a portfolio that boasts 16 hotels and more than 2,800 rooms in operation or under development.

Situated on the Opal coast in the Pas-de-Calais area, Sangatte Blériot-Plage is a small and charming seaside destination that’s increasingly popular with travellers – both for its golden beach facing out onto the Channel and its easy access to the Eurotunnel, linking it to Western Europe’s major capital cities. The entire region enjoys a healthy flow of tourist arrivals, with international visitors making up more than a quarter of those journeying to a destination that’s quickly growing in demand.

Situated on the stunning Turkish Riviera, Radisson Collection Resort & SPA, Bodrum is set to become a prestigious tourist destination. It’s part of an exciting resort development that blends authentic Mediterranean architecture with a European design aesthetic and will feature a high-end retail offering, residential housing and a private marina.

Elie Younes, Executive Vice President & Chief Development Officer, of Radisson Hotel Group, said: “We’re thrilled to strengthen our presence in Turkey with the introduction of Radisson Collection, our premium lifestyle brand.
