Carlson Rezidor has introduced its upper-upscale Radisson Blu brand to Bengaluru.

The new Radisson Blu Atria Bengaluru opened on Monday 13 March 2017 in the capital of southern India’s Karnataka state, continuing the rapid expansion of Carlson Rezidor’s brands across India.

“Bengaluru is a progressive market and continues to thrive on high economic activity, an international focal point of India’s growth momentum,” said Raj Rana, Carlson Rezidor’s CEO for South Asia. “The opening of Radisson Blu Atria Bengaluru is a testament of our footprint in the region and a reflection of the unique brand identity that we bring to the city.”

Located 45 minutes’ drive from the city’s Kempegowda International Airport and close to the central business district, Radisson Blu Atria Bengaluru features 167 rooms and suites, all equipped with modern, high-end amenities. There will also be four food and beverage outlets, including Indian restaurant and whiskey bar, plus an executive lounge, business centre, swimming pool, spa and fitness centre.

The hotel also provides more than 1,250m² of function space, comprising six meeting rooms and two boardrooms.

This opening comes just days after Carlson Rezidor launched its Radisson Blu brand in the city of Jammu, northern India.
