Radisson Blu, the upper upscale hotel brand that delivers a positive and personalized service in stylish spaces, is delighted to announce its latest hotel opening in the French city of Bordeaux. The 125-room hotel provides stunning views across the magnificent Garonne river, with its prime location just north of the historic city center.
