The cool barometer of Johannesburg's already vibrant Rosebank district has hit RED hot with the opening of Radisson RED Johannesburg Rosebank. The first Radisson RED hotel in South Africa's Gauteng province and only the second to hit African soil after the successful opening of its Capetonian counterpart in 2017, this new-build hotel, situated at Oxford Parks, is a vibrant mixed-use area comprising apartments, retailers, restaurants and offices.

Located in South Africa's cosmopolitan financial hub, Radisson RED Johannesburg Rosebank is nestled in one of its trendiest business nodes, the leafy Rosebank, and is just a few minutes' walk from the Gautrain station and the high-end retail and shopping precinct, which includes Rosebank Mall. With a recent surge in developments, Rosebank is now home to various corporate offices, renowned art galleries and some of the city's finest restaurants and bars, providing the ideal base for leisure and business travel.

Visitors can expect a vibrant hotel concept created for the next generation of travelers with a modern and creative mindset. Featuring 222 standard rooms and suites, Radisson RED Johannesburg Rosebank is a bold and trendy addition to Rosebank, inspired by local art, music, fashion and people. The hotel brings to life Radisson RED's bold brand ethos with its eclectic art and the colorful accents of its interior design, including custom African-print wallpaper for each floor, street-style art displays which will rotate every six months, and high-tech additions like an interactive digi-wall and Chromecast televisions in each room.

Following in the footsteps of its sister hotel in Cape Town, which was voted best rooftop bar in the city, Radisson RED Johannesburg Rosebank also boasts a trendy Rooftop Bar & Terrace where guests can take a dip in the rooftop swimming pool and enjoy exclusive DJ sets, cocktails and delicious food - all with an unmatched, panoramic view of the city. Guests can also indulge in the hotel's vibrant culinary offerings such as the all-day dining OUI Bar + KTCHN, which is easily accessible from Rosebank's main road and where Lead Kitchen Executive Chef Genghis San brings Johannesburg's melting pot of cultures to life with menus that combine mealtime favorites and unexpected delights.

Whether it is to host a professional conference, fashion show or strategy brainstorm, Radisson RED Rosebank Johannesburg's flexible spaces promise to inspire. Kitted with modern technology, experienced event planners, and multiple wholesome food options fresh from the kitchen, the hotel features six meeting studios ranging from 20 to 120 in capacity as well as a reading room workspace for remote workers. All meeting studios have an abundance of natural light and street views.
