Stayed at hotel during short business trip. Hotel is conveniently located and service is excellent and very professional. Did not have any meals so cannot comment on the food. Hotel needs a revamp as looking old and tired. Perhaps a new look is required to compete with other similar hotels

5 star quality hotel which is impossible to fault. The staff are extremely friendly and maintain the highest standards on the Raddison Blu hotels worldwide. The location is convenient for the airport but needs a taxi ride, which is not expensive, into the centre.

Smooth check in, very friendly staff. Hotel is very handy to airport and has nice restaurant options, slightly disappointed with the room and bathroom. Decor was very old and slightly shabby. Everything else fine.

I stayed here during the Formula 1 weekend, so it was a challenging and busy time for the hotel, with some of the teams staying there. However service did not seem to suffer and the hotel coped well - no long waits for taxis, drinks, or meals either. I stayed in a suite, which is in the newer Residence tower... More

We stay here on a regular basis and its always nice,. I would recommend just having room service for breakfast as the buffet is over priced,.the restuarant by the pool was nice for lunch and drinks at night. I had tuna with gnocchi which I really enjoyed
