Rezidor to expand EMEA presence with Radisson Blu hotel in Moldova
POSTED 21 Aug 2012 . BY Pete Hayman
Rezidor Hotel Group is to expand its presence in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region with the opening of a new Radisson Blu-branded property in Chisinau, Moldova, next year.

An existing 145-bedroom hotel will be fully refurbished before relaunching as the Radisson Blu Hotel, Chisinau - one of the first international hospitality brands to arrive in Chisinau.

Facilities will include a wellness centre, one restaurant, two bars and extensive meeting space. However, further details are yet to be confirmed at this stage.

Rezidor president and CEO Kurt Ritter said: "Moldova is emerging from a period of transition to a market economy with a private sector that is now carrying more than 70 per cent of GDP.

"Chisinau is the capital and the most economically-developed city of the country. The city's economy is mainly centred on the secondary and tertiary sector which will drive hotel demand."
