Radisson Red London Heathrow
Radisson Red London Heathrow is a modern hotel located near Heathrow Airport in the London Borough of Hillingdon. The building is a low-rise 1960s structure with contemporary design throughout its interior, featuring about 258 rooms that are larger than those in the adjacent standard Radisson, and public spaces decorated with modern furnishings, including a restaurant called Hope and Glory and a car placed as a decorative element in the lobby.
The building was originally the Park Inn Hotel from the 1960s and was later divided into two separate concepts. The Radisson Red portion was created to appeal to younger travelers with modern design, while the other side remained as a traditional Radisson Hotel. This division reflects how the original structure was reimagined into two distinct hospitality experiences.
The name Radisson Red reflects the brand's modern, artistic identity aimed at younger travelers. Unlike the more traditional Radisson next door, contemporary art touches and the contemporary design here create a creative atmosphere that visitors experience as they move through the public spaces.
The hotel is best reached by bus from the terminal buildings, particularly buses 105 or 111 from the Central Bus Station, which are free and stop at Nene Road. Rooms include free Wi-Fi, modern bathrooms with showers, and basic essentials, while shared facilities such as a swimming pool and gym are available to all guests.
A notable quirk is that despite separate branding, the hotel shares all facilities with the adjacent standard Radisson, including reception, restaurant, and leisure amenities. This means it feels like part of a larger hotel rather than a completely standalone experience.
