Galway got a jobs boost this week when it was announced that the Radisson RED Galway at Crown Square, currently under construction, is scheduled to open its doors later this year.
The bold new hotel will feature 177 rooms, each reflecting Radisson RED’s vibrant signature style and design which incorporates art, music, and fashion to offer an unforgettable stay to all guests. Radisson RED Galway will be a stylish contemporary haven for guests to explore Galway’s popular attractions brimming with Irish culture, old and new.
Designed by the renowned Henry J. Lyons Architects, as part of the ambitious new Crown Square Development, Radisson RED Galway will be an eight-storey building with impressive views over Galway Bay and the hills of Clare from the rooftop bar and restaurant.
For those with business or event needs, Radisson RED Galway will offer more than 400 square metres of meeting and event space on the lower ground floor. The space includes a versatile 300sqm conference space which can be split into two individual meeting rooms, in addition to a 200sqm breakout space which adds the flexibility to cater to numerous event formats.
The overall project, which will see a €40 million investment, is being developed by the Galway based Rhatigan Group and built by the long-established JJ Rhatigan & Company.
Adela Cristea, Vice President, Business Development UK, Ireland & Nordics at Radisson Hotel Group, said they are delighted to introduce Radisson RED to Ireland and specifically to Galway with this momentous signing and are pleased to be working closely with the Rhatigan Group once again in their hometown.
"Radisson RED Galway is testament to their vision, and we are thrilled to be part of this project. Galway is the perfect home for the Radisson RED brand — a place where vibrant atmosphere, unique charm, and rich cultural heritage come together. We are delighted to be joining the community.”
Padraic Rhatigan, Principle of the Rhatigan Group, said they 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 our hometown," he said.
