Very modern hotel with all the great amenities that you can expect from a Radisson Hotel. I was so…read morelucky to have an amazing view to the main church of Hasselt and the skycap. I thought I was going to be in a pretty small town and then I got captivated by the beauty of the buildings and the pretty avenues with nice restaurants, cafes and stores. This hotel is located in downtown and it was not easy for me to arrive there walking from the train station.
I followed Google maps but somehow the city center is very concentric and my app was sending me to opposite ways, so what it should be less than a 10 minutes walk took me almost an hour. Also, looks like there is another Radisson hotel, so make sure you know where you go! (don't do like me). On my lost ways to Radisson Blu I met 2 guys, Afghani refugees that helped me deciphered the path to my hotel (it is always nice to interface with humans not only devices!). Hotel found, nice receptionist and prompt service.
I was very pleased with my room, the design (I loved the pixelated deconstructed famous Belgian paint on top of my bed.
Believe it or not, this hotel is so 'design' that even the Bible was super amazing, with the most beautiful, simple and elegant illustrations I have ever seen I did not get one to carry because I was carrying the minimum stuff with me, but check the pics and see for yourself (plus you can practice languages as was in French, Dutch and German!).
I was not only super happy with my room and the fabulous view, but also with the views of the upper terrace that is open to public after 5 for happy hours and gatherings. Just amazing. The gym, with sauna and hamam very complete and full of people! (they have pool hours for women only for those who prefer that way). Breakfast of next day was also fantastic, there is nothing I did not like of my experience there, so I will definitively go back if I am in Hasselt again.
