Situated near the banks of the River Wear, the Radisson Hotel Durham offers excellent views out over the city from its recently established position. The hotel opened at the beginning of November 2008 to add to the growing list of Radisson venues around the country. From some parts of the hotel it is possible to view the impressive cathedral and the city’s old town and so guests can enjoy a glimpse of Durham’s historic past from their very own windows. There are several other Radisson venues dotted around the northern half of England, including those at Liverpool, Manchester and Leeds, while further south there are also hotels in Birmingham, Bristol and London too.

The Radisson Hotel Durham is to be found in the city centre, conveniently placed to reach the major transport hubs as well as the shopping areas, entertainment highlights and the places of cultural interest. Durham is home to the Millennium Hall which has become one of the top conference and event centres in the area, while, in addition, there are also plenty of other companies and facets to interest the business user. The Radisson Hotel Durham is also ideally placed for leisure visitors in this attractive and popular city. It has museums, gardens, castles and other fun attractions which are particularly suitable for families. Nearby is the university - one of the country’s most prestigious and the third oldest after Oxford and Cambridge.

The Radisson Hotel Durham contains more than 200 guest rooms, some of which feature excellent views out over the city. This figure includes standard and business class rooms, as well as suites and the large presidential suite. The hotel’s main restaurant looks out over the nearby river and offers a selection of Italian dishes using fresh local produce where possible. There is also a cocktail bar and a lobby bar where guests can enjoy a drink or two into the evening or throughout the day.

For meetings and events there are 11 facilities covering more than 1,000 square metres between them. The purpose-built rooms are well-equipped with each need thought through for your activity. Some rooms are smaller and are therefore more suited to boardroom meetings for example, while others can accommodate for up to 600 people. Meanwhile, offering the chance to relax and unwind during your stay, there is a health club complete with swimming pool, steam room, Jacuzzi, sauna and gym, as well as five treatment rooms to heighten relaxation.
