RHG northern and western Europe area senior vice-president Tom Flanagan Karttunen said: “It’s a great pleasure to open the second Radisson Collection hotel in Spain and bring the brand to Bilbao.
“One of the most outstanding elements of this new hotel is its location in the heart of the city on one of the most prominent avenues, Gran Vía.”
According to the RHG, the hotel has received a leadership in energy and environmental design (LEED) green building certification for minimising energy and water consumption.
Besides, the hotel has also achieved a LEED innovation credit for promoting activities, such as walking and cycling in the hotel’s surrounding.
Karttunen added: “The hotel features stylish and attention-to-detail design, with an exceptional rooftop terrace, that is one of the best in Bilbao.
“We are honoured to partner with local five-time Michelin star chef Eneko Atxa to offer top-class gastronomy at our NKO restaurant.”
In September 2021, RHG opened its first Radisson Collection Hotel, Magdalena Plaza Sevilla, in Seville, Spain.
Later in the coming months, RHG is expected to open its first Radisson RED lifestyle property in Madrid.
RHG is now aiming to open 20 hotels in Spain in the coming five years.
