Prize by Radisson, Gdansk City, scheduled to open in 2026, is a 126-room newly built property located only 300m away from the city’s famous boulevard and its renowned architecture along the Motlawa river. Gdansk, where historic charm meets modern vibrancy, is a booming economic hub and a must-visit destination, seamlessly blending centuries-old architecture with dynamic opportunities for business and leisure. The ground floor of the hotel will house a restaurant as well as a bar. Gdansk airport, the third largest airport in Poland, is 17km away from the hotel, whereas the main train station is approximately 2km away from the hotel.
Prize by Radisson, Berlin City, scheduled to open in 2027, the 315-room property will be part of a new mixed-use development in Berlin's Prenzlauer Berg district. Situated only around 10 minutes from Alexanderplatz, the hotel offers smooth connectivity to the city's attractions, nightlife, trade fair, airport, and long-distance train stations. In line with PrizePromise, the brand’s ESG commitment, the building aims for DGNB Gold certification and will feature various uses, with the hotel occupying about 60% of the property’s land. The top floor will house the hotel lobby, bar, social area with co-working space, and breakfast restaurant, all offering stunning views of Berlin's city center.
Since its launch in Germany in 2009, Prize by Radisson has redefined the midscale design hotel concept by merging smart lifestyle elements with affordable accommodation.

Currently, the Prize by Radisson portfolio consists of 21 properties in operation and under development across Europe, including the highly anticipated opening of Prize by Radisson, Osnabrück City in 2025.
