The Rezidor Hotel Group has opened the Radisson Blu Resort Split in Croatia, a luxury hotel on the Adriatic coast with panoramic views over the Mediterranean Sea and the island Brac.
After an extensive renovation and reconstruction, the former ‘Hotel Split’ – which had a history of nearly 50 years – offers 240 guestrooms, including two Presidential suites.
“We are delighted to add a further outstanding first class hotel to our Croatian portfolio. Rezidor aims to grow its young and successful resort business further and Croatia as an emerging holiday destination in Europe offers not only beautiful landscapes but also the needed infrastructure and manpower,” says Kurt Ritter, president & CEO of Rezidor.
