Radisson Blu Hotel Misrata to open early 2016 in Libya

“We look forward to arriving in Misrata. We know Libya from our time in Tripoli where we operated the Radisson Blu Al Mahary Hotel until its suspension in August 2014. Libya remains an attractive emerging market for us, and we carefully monitor its development. Although the overall situation is still at risk, we are confident that Libya will continue to recover from the unrest and to offer opportunities for international investments across all sectors”, said Wolfgang M. Neumann, President & CEO of Rezidor. Misrata, Libya’s third largest city and located on the Mediterranean Sea, is considered to be the most secure city in the country and is an active business hub due to its port and free zone.

The Radisson Blu Hotel, Misrata will be operated by The Rezidor Hotel Group.
