(TAN): Radisson Hotel Group kicks off 2022 with the launch of its newly redesigned German Radisson Collection flagship property in the heart of Berlin. The first premium luxury lifestyle Radisson Collection hotel in the country offers an exceptional hotel experience in a great location in Berlin-Mitte.
Radisson Collection Hotel, Berlin has completed an extensive 12-month renovation, which encompassed the redesign of all guest rooms, a reimagined front-desk space, and an exciting new lobby, bar and restaurant design. The famous AquaDom, the world’s largest freestanding cylindrical aquarium with 1,600 tropical fish, remains the centerpiece of the hotel lobby and underwent a thorough modernization.

The hotel features 427 rooms and suites across six floors. The interior design combines wood tones with subtle gray and plum tones, accented by impactful artwork and stylish decorative accessories, which allow the rooms to feel highly contemporary and cozy at the same time. Bathrooms feature the same dark wood tones with white marble tiles, offering walk-in rain showers as well as bathtubs in the junior suites. Select rooms feature private balconies and overlook the Spree River with breathtaking views of the cathedral and Humboldt Forum, or City Hall and the famous TV tower. The 101-sqm one-bedroom Nikolai Suite on the sixth floor offers the ultimate Radisson Collection experience with its living room overlooking the city, a dining room with kitchenette, and a bathroom with whirlpool tub. All rooms are equipped with large televisions with mirror casting and an in-room espresso machine.
Beneath the aquatic AquaDom, the Atrium Bar is the place to meet, enjoy coffee and cake, a wide range of spirits, beer, wine and expertly crafted cocktails, as well as a selection of smaller dishes throughout the day. The food and drink menus place a strong focus on local ingredients: breweries and distilleries have been selected from Berlin and the neighboring state of Brandenburg, whilst food is sourced from suppliers in the local area. In March 2022, Balaustine Restaurant will open as the hotel’s main dining venue, offering dishes packed with the flavors and the flair of the Levant, accompanied by Middle Eastern-inspired cocktails. During summer, the Balaustine Terrace overlooking the Spree River is the perfect place to enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner or simply an evening drink al fresco.
