Radisson Hotel Philadelphia is implementing the Radisson Hotels Americas Safety Protocol to ensure guest safety and peace of mind from check-in to check-out. These in-depth cleanliness and disinfection protocols were developed in partnership with SGS, the world’s leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company.

“Philadelphia is a city full of history that attracts a mix of guests from across the U.S. and the world,” said Tom Buoy, Interim Chief Executive Officer, Radisson Hotel Group Americas. “We are excited to establish a newly renovated property in such a convenient location in South Philadelphia that is sure to keep guests occupied and immersed in the many activities the city has to offer. This opening is yet another milestone in the development of the Radisson brand in a key downtown market.”

In addition to being rich with history, Philadelphia is a city with a deep-rooted sports identity.

Casino or the Navy Yard, a bustling center teeming with business activity and retail options.

“Developing this property in partnership with Radisson Hotel Group Americas has been a challenging but rewarding process that has totally elevated the quality of service we’re able to deliver to our guests,” said the owners of Watermark Hospitality. “We’re thrilled to reintroduce ourselves to the Philadelphia community and welcome guests new and old to experience the comfort and hospitality synonymous with the Radisson brand.”
