Radisson Hotel Group's upscale hotel brand Radisson RED has debuted in Ireland with the launch of Radisson RED Galway.

Situated in Galway's Crown Square neighbourhood, the hotel was developed by Rhatigan Group and designed by Henry J Lyons.

The design includes an interactive bar and lounge area, with a colour palette of walnut tones, reds, and brass highlights. The property also features various dining options, shared spaces that encourage social interaction, and a south-facing terrace for outdoor enjoyment.

The hotel's 177 guest rooms and suites incorporate large windows and elements that pay homage to Galway's rich cultural heritage.

Radisson RED Galway offers various modern features such as kiosk check-in and check-out, wireless charging points, and rooms equipped with Chromecast technology.

Rhatigan Group principle Padraic Rhatigan said: “We are proud to be bringing this new, high-quality destination hotel to our home city of Galway. Radisson RED is a great fit for our city, and we are looking forward to revealing the standout design and sophisticated offering in Galway.”

Radisson Hotel Group Northern and Western Europe senior vice president 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.”

The hotel expects to become an event venue, boasting nine versatile meeting rooms and over 400m² of space.

The Tribe Suite can accommodate up to 220 guests and is complemented by additional boardrooms and breakout spaces, all equipped with audiovisual facilities and a private bar.

Radisson RED Galway offers easy access to motorways to major Irish cities such as Dublin and Limerick.
