Radisson Hotel Group is set to introduce its Radisson RED brand to Auckland, New Zealand, enhancing the city’s lifestyle hospitality offerings.
The Radisson RED Auckland, a new 322-key hotel located on Queen Street, is designed to merge modern lifestyle experiences with the vibrant atmosphere of New Zealand’s largest city.
The hotel aims to offer guests stylish and inspirational spaces that connect them to the essence of Auckland. Drawing inspiration from the local arts and entertainment scene, Radisson RED Auckland is poised to become a social hub, offering informal and welcoming environments for guests to relax and engage.
Following New Zealand’s border reopening in August 2022, the country has seen a surge in tourism, with a significant increase in overseas visitor arrivals. Owned by the reputable Stonewood Group, the Radisson RED Auckland underscores Radisson Hotel Group’s strategy to expand through diverse business models within Auckland’s thriving hospitality market.
Elie Younes, of Radisson Hotel Group, emphasized that the introduction of Radisson RED Auckland is a crucial step in the company’s Australasia development plan. The Radisson RED brand, known for its dynamic lifestyle orientation, is perfectly suited for Auckland, offering a unique and innovative option for real estate owners and partners.
Michael Chow, from Stonewood Group, expressed enthusiasm about partnering with Radisson Hotel Group to bring the Radisson RED brand to Auckland. Highlighting the brand’s distinct design and strong commercial appeal, Chow looks forward to welcoming guests to this dynamic property in 2025, enriching Queen Street’s arts district.
The Radisson RED Auckland will not only offer an array of stylish room options but also feature comprehensive amenities, including an all-day dining restaurant, wellness facilities, and event spaces. Part of a mixed-use development, the hotel will also house dining and retail establishments, ensuring guests have everything they need within reach. Positioned near Auckland’s waterfront and popular attractions, the hotel promises convenience and access to the city’s best experiences.
The launch of Radisson RED in Auckland marks another milestone in the brand’s global expansion, joining nearly 80 hotels worldwide, including recent and upcoming openings in key destinations.
