INTRODUCTION
This manual contains the 2023 Brand Standards for Radisson Blu hotels located in two theaters:
Asia Pacific (APAC), Europe, Middle-East and Africa (EMEA). Some standards vary by area; the
following acronyms apply: Asia Pacific (APAC), Europe (EU), Latin America (LATAM), Middle-East
and Africa (MEA) and North America (NAMER). Standards referring to LATAM and NAMER are
for reference only.

This manual is an element of the “Brand Standards and Operating Manuals” for the Radisson Blu
brand.

Serviced Apartments and resort brand standards can be found in the annex. Property categories
are defined by Radisson Hotel Group (RHG).

All references to water, water glasses, water carafes and water bottles must comply with the
RHG water guidelines, which can be found for reference in the annex.

These brand standards enable Radisson Blu to deliver on its value proposition, in line with the 5
year strategic plan for Radisson Hotel Group.

The brand standards are structured in a way that follows the guest journey. The images used
in this manual are for illustrative purposes. References to where the items can be sourced or
purchased (BAT, SHOP, etc.) have been removed due to differences in specifications per theater/
area.

HOW SHOULD THIS BRAND STANDARDS MANUAL BE USED?


Hotels are expected to comply with all brand standards and should use this manual as a
reference on which products and services must be offered to the guest to deliver the Radisson
Blu value proposition. General Managers are encouraged to share this document with their
Heads of Departments, who should cascade down the information to members of their team.
Regional teams should use this manual to ensure each hotel in their region complies with brand
standards.

Note on COVID-19

One of Radisson Hotel Group’s top priorities is the health, safety and security of our guests, team members and business partners worldwide. As we
remain committed to serve guests with our Yes I Can! Spirit, we have also developed our Radisson Hotels Safety Protocol, which is centered around 5
core items to be applied in all areas of the hotel.

Throughout 2023, in conjunction with brand standards, properties must continue to follow the Radisson Hotels Safety Protocol. Details can be found
in the Illustrated Implementation Guideline, which is kept current and requires you to, as a minimum, to comply with the variety in country/local
regulations on COVID-19.

In addition, please note:


• Hotels must always follow (local) government instructions, or the Radisson Hotels Safety protocol guidelines, whichever is stricter.
• Whilst all properties can implement the steps of the protocol immediately, the implementation of the core items of the Radisson Hotels Safety
protocol will be included in the year brand audit. Should a hotel fail, it will be asked to remove all related collateral.
