INTERNATIONAL REPORT—The Autograph Collection and Radisson Blu made their debuts in the Mediterranean, while Four Points by Sheraton opened in Canada.
Autograph Collection Hotels has opened the 82-room Sofa Hotel Istanbul in Turkey.
Designed by Turkish architect Hakan Kiran, the hotel’s interiors offer a contrast to the city’s bustling streets. Sleek lines, custom-designed furniture, bespoke artwork and modern light fittings complete the 82 guestrooms, which are decorated in gray tones with splashes of deep red, mustard and copper throughout. Five suites and a selection of terrace rooms with private balconies offer more space as well as city views. Each guestroom offers a large marble bathroom with standing shower and separate bathtub.
Radisson Blu has opened the Radisson Blu Hotel, Larnaca in Cyprus. The hotel’s 106 rooms and suites showcase modern design highlighted with local flourishes. All rooms have a balcony with views of the coast and harbor scenery.
The hotel is operated by Radisson Hospitality AB under an international license agreement with Sunnyseeker Hotels.
