The hotel has 177 guest rooms and suites, a ground-floor bar and grill, rooftop bar and restaurant, outside south-facing terrace and nine versatile meeting rooms, including a 220-guest theatre-style venue.

Radisson Hotel Group Area Senior Vice President Northern & Western Europe Tom Flanagan Karttunen said: “Opening the first ever Radisson RED property in Ireland is a monumental occasion, and I could not be prouder that it’s located in Galway, which happens to be my hometown. The property perfectly marries the bold vibrance of the brand’s design with the culture and heritage of the city, and it is an ideal choice for business and leisure guests alike.”

It is situated in Galway’s newest neighborhood, Crown Square and is located next to motorways that connect the city with Dublin and Limerick.
