Sneak Peek at the Newly-Revamped Radisson Blu Hamburg
Design-minded travelers to Hamburg, Germany, will be happy to hear the Radisson Blu Hamburg reopens this week after a 48-million-euro makeover. Claiming the title of Hamburg’s biggest hotel, the hotel has 556 rooms and stands nearly 400 feet tall.
Thanks to the renovation, brand-new features include a 23,000-square-foot conference area/ballroom, freshened-up lobby with two lounges, two restaurants and bars, and a fitness center. Plus, the guestrooms have been re-imagined with individual themes.
The lobby now has white tile floors, black walls, and an under-lit reception area (see photo above — looks pretty good, dontchya think?). Think mod chandelier lighting and gold armchairs alongside Arne Jacobsen Egg chairs. Meanwhile, Swedish architect Christian Lundwall refreshed the guestrooms in three styles: natural (light colors, beechwood furniture); urban (modern aesthetic, oak furniture, Amtico flooring); and mansion (Turkish rugs, rosewood furniture, silver wardrobes). The rooms all have free Wi-Fi (yay!) and some have city views.
Four new boardrooms are bedecked in modern designer legends Arne Jacobsen, Walter Knoll, Corbusier, and Designers Guild. And the hotel now features the city’s highest event facility: High End, a space lofted 350 feet in the air with panoramic views of Hamburg. The hotel also now features Filini Restaurant, which features modern Italian fare and a lengthy wine list. Plus, Radisson Blu’s Trader Vic’s has also been given an overhaul, now with a show kitchen with a Chinese wood oven, Tiki art, and Mai Tai Bar.
Rates start at 130 euros (roughly $193) a night.
