Radisson Hotel Group has signed a new 173-room hotel, the Radisson Hotel Gorizont Rostov-on-Don, set to open in 2020.

The hotel will take the company’s portfolio in Russia up to a total of 39 hotels and more than 10,000 rooms in operation or under development.

Elie Younes, EVP & CDO, Radisson Hotel Group, said: “We are extremely proud to establish Radisson in Russia, and with this, further strengthening our position as the leading international hotel group in the region.”

Dan Polonsky, general director, TK Gorizont JSC said: “The new hotel is a part of the large multi-functional shopping and entertainment complex called Gorizont. Radisson Hotel Gorizont Rostov-on-Don will be a convenient location for Russian and foreign partners, as well as guests of the city. This will bring Gorizont Mall to a fundamentally new level with even greater comfort and unique atmosphere.”

The hotel will offer 173 rooms and suites, an all-day restaurant and lobby lounge bar, as well as a gym, a conference hall and various meeting rooms.

Rostov-on-Don is the 10th largest city in Russia with 1.2 million inhabitants. This will be the second hotel opening for Radisson Hotel Group in the city, in addition to the Radisson Blu that opened in 2017 on the river front.

The hotel, located in the north-west area of the city, will be part of a mixed-use development complex, including Gorizont Mall – the largest shopping mall in Rostov-On-Don that showcases more than 350 shops and a multiplex cinema center that can be accessed directly from the hotel.
