Radisson Hotel Group has announced the opening of its Radisson Blu Hotel in Perth, Scotland.
The hotel features 75 guest rooms and suites, a restaurant, lobby bar, garden bar, fitness gym, treatment rooms, as well as two ballrooms, including the largest outside Edinburgh, and five large meeting and conference rooms.
The hotel’s restaurant, Victoria, offers a “spin on classic British dishes”. The modern grill menu celebrates local businesses, seasonally inspired classics that focus on “sustainable, fresh, organic, and local ingredients, from grass-fed beef to foraged herbs and great farm cheeses”.
Radisson Blu Hotel, Perth was originally built as one of the British Transport Hotels due to its proximity to the train station, and is a Grade II listed building, featuring “beautiful architecture and grand staircases”.
General manager, Asen Panagonov, said: “We are delighted to be bringing this much needed upscale hotel quality to Perth under the Radisson Blu brand. We aim to restore the hotel to its rightful position as the jewel of the Fair City and welcome guests for a relaxing stay within a vibrant city, surrounded by stunning scenery.”
Tom Flanagan Karttunen, area senior vice president, northern and western Europe at Radisson Hotel Group, added: “The addition of such a historic landmark property to our Radisson Blu portfolio in the UK is a great achievement. Radisson Blu Hotel, Perth is the seventh property to join our Scottish portfolio, with other hotels located in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, and Inverness.”
