Scheduled to open late next year, Radisson Blu Istanbul Asia in Turkey will feature 194 guestrooms, an all-day dining restaurant, two bars, 10 function rooms (including a 4,000-square-foot ballroom), and a large health and fitness center.
Meanwhile, Radisson Blu Hotel & Convention Centre, Kigali is slated to debut in 2012 in the Rwandan capital. Part of a mixed use development, the 292-room hotel will comprise six F&B outlets, spa and fitness center, boutique retail, and an outdoor swimming pool. The adjacent 344,000-square-foot convention center will have a multipurpose arena, seven conference rooms, and 10 smaller meeting rooms.
