Great Radisson EMEA sale: free breakfast and €50 hotel credit!

As Asia is recovering from the pandemic, we have already seen a lot of incredible hotel promotions in China and Southeast Asia. Hopefully Europe will slowly follow suit – and gladly we are already seeing one from Radisson Hotels.

Radisson has just launched a “Summer Staycation” promotion:

• Valid for bookings until 29th August
• Stay until 30th August
• Hotels (Radisson Blu, Park Plaza, Park Inn etc.) in Europe, Middle East and Africa are participating
• There’s a minimum stay requirement of 2 nights
• Stay includes free breakfast and €50 hotel credit (per stay)
• Free cancellation until 48 hours before your stay

You can book on the offer page directly. Alternatively just visit the home page and enter code STAYCAT when you book.

Free breakfast is for two persons throughout the stay and €50 can be used towards e.g. dining, spa and room upgrade. The benefits look very decent, but of course it is subject to how much the package costs, compared to other regular rates.

I have checked a few hotels and listed my findings below. The first one is this Staycation rate, the second being the lowest publicised rate available. They are both average nightly rate for a weekend stay.

London

• The May Fair, A Radisson Collection Hotel £279.3 / £294
• Radisson Blu Edwardian, Vanderbilt hotel £137.75 / £145
• Radisson Blu Edwardian, Bloomsbury Street hotel £204.25 / £225

Berlin

• Radisson Blu Hotel, Berlin €137.69 / €144.99
• Park Inn by Radisson Berlin Alexanderplatz €94.05 / €99

Stockholm

• Radisson Collection Strand Hotel, Stockholm 2056 SEK / 2165 SEK
• Radisson Blu Royal Viking Hotel, Stockholm 1216 SEK / 1280 SEK

Dubai

• Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Waterfront 436 AED / 458 AED
• Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Canal View 369 AED / 387 AED

I was expecting to see the rate on a par with the best flexible rate, but surprising it is genuinely the lowest rate available. In fact, it is about 5% lower than the lowest public rate, so you get a decent saving, as well as enjoy free breakfast and the €50 credit.

Of course there’s still a lot of uncertainty out there and we don’t know if we can travel this summer at all. But you can cancel the booking for free later, so there’s no harm make some speculative reservation now.
