The first of two Radisson hotels for the business centre of Johannesburg has been officially opened. With 15 floors in a newly built tower, a spa below and two floors of penthouses above, the Radisson Blu Hotel Sandton expresses modern European style. Maria Vafiadis of London’s MKV Design explained that the brief was to design a first-class international hotel for a “younger generation of well-travelled business people who expect new experiences and visual stimuli in their hotels but without the loss of familiar contemporary references and comforts.” The second hotel is expected to open in 2010.
