Radisson Blu Hotel, Bonn opens on the Rhine next to Germany's largest conference center

 

The hotel stands out for a number of features that converge: the WCCB directly next door, steps from the Rhine, UN Campus within walking distance, and Konrad's – a rooftop restaurant and bar – tying it all together from above. 

 

A modern hotel that blends contemporary comfort with stunning views of the Rhine, Radisson Blu Hotel, Bonn occupies a prime position on Platz der Vereinten Nationen. Bonn's celebrated Museum Mile, home to the Bundeskunsthalle, Haus der Geschichte and Kunstmuseum Bonn, is within easy walking distance, while the city center is 15-minute tram ride away, with direct high-speed rail connections to Cologne, Frankfurt and beyond. Cologne Bonn Airport is the nearest international gateway, with Frankfurt Airport also easily accessible by rail. For guests arriving by car, the hotel offers indoor on-site parking with six AC Type 2 electric vehicle charging points. 

The World Conference Center Bonn (WCCB) – directly adjacent to the hotel – consists of the former plenary hall of the German Bundestag and a modern main building with 14 conference rooms and a total capacity for up to 7,000 participants. It is one of the most established international conference venues in Germany, and the hotel's immediate proximity to it positions it as a natural base for delegates attending UN conferences, congresses and large-scale corporate events. 

 

For smaller meetings and private events, the hotel offers four function rooms with natural daylight and individual climate control, accommodating up to 150 people in total. The two largest rooms, Villa Hammerschmidt and Wasserwerk (each 77 m²), can host sessions for up to 60 attendees theater-style, supported by a dedicated breakout area and flexible catering options. All meeting packages are delivered through the Radisson Meetings program and include carbon compensation at no additional cost. 

 

"With the Radisson Blu Hotel, Bonn, we are adding an exceptional property in one of Germany's strongest conference and institutional locations to the Radisson Blu network. The hotel's direct connection to the World Conference Center Bonn, combined with its riverside position and full-service offering, makes it a compelling addition – and reinforces Radisson Blu's position as the largest upper-upscale brand in Europe," says Joep Peeters, Chief Operating Officer Franchise EMEA, Radisson Hotel Group. 

 

The hotel offers 336 rooms and suites across several categories, ranging from 25 to 114 square meters. Options include Standard and Premium Rooms, many with Rhine or city views, as well as Junior Suites (45 m²) and a 114-square-meter Panorama Suite. Suites can accommodate up to four guests, making the hotel suitable for longer stays and small families alongside its core business clientele. All rooms are equipped with complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning and in-room safes. 

 

Konrad's Restaurant & Skybar occupies the hotel's 17th floor. The restaurant focuses on dinner, with a kitchen that draws on French and Mediterranean influences and a focus on seasonal ingredients. The skybar has its own rhythm, serving signature cocktails, fine wines and aperitifs against a panoramic backdrop of Bonn, the Rhine and the Siebengebirge. The terrace – open from spring to fall – is one of the few rooftop settings in Bonn, and increasingly a draw for locals as much as for hotel guests. The venue is also available for private celebrations and weddings. 

 

At ground level, Parlament serves breakfast and lunch with a menu that blends regional specialties with international flavors. Vegan options are available throughout. The Greatroom Bar in the lobby offers cocktails, wines and lighter fare in a more relaxed setting throughout the day and evening. 

 

The GOP Varieté-Theater Bonn is directly accessible through the hotel lobby – a live entertainment venue that adds a layer to the evening that few hotels can offer from their own front door. 

 

Guests have direct access to Visiolife, an approximately 1,700-square-meter wellness and fitness facility located within the hotel. Offerings include a range of saunas, steam baths, a heated indoor swimming pool, dedicated lounging areas, massages, body therapies, beauty treatments and EMS training, with programs tailored to individual needs. A modern fitness center with cardio and strength equipment is open 24 hours. Access to the pool, saunas and fitness facilities is complimentary for all hotel guests. 

 

The Destination 

Bonn has quietly become one of the most interesting mid-sized cities on the Rhine. The Beethoven heritage is well known, but it is the combination of things that makes the city compelling today: a concentration of international organizations that keeps it cosmopolitan and multilingual, a Museum Mile that rivals cities twice its size, and a riverfront that has evolved from government promenade into one of the more pleasant stretches of urban Rhine landscape in western Germany. The Siebengebirge nature reserve is less than 30 minutes away. The old town is walkable, the restaurant scene is growing, and rail connections put Cologne at 20 minutes, Frankfurt at under two hours. 

 

"This hotel has long been part of Bonn's identity – and what we are building now is the next stage of that story. With its location on the Rhine, its connection to the conference center and spaces like Konrad's on the 17th floor, the hotel brings together everything that defines Bonn today: international, accessible and connected to the river. Our focus is simple – to create a place that works just as naturally for a congress delegate as it does for a weekend in the city," says Mathias Wessel, General Manager, Radisson Blu Hotel, Bonn.
