Singita on leading the

was truly designed with millennial nomads in mind.

Doubling up as community social hubs and boasting menus as laid-back as the RED restaurant teams, the hotel’s signature dining outlets include the ‘grab and go’ Food truck Lobby and DELI. You simply cannot miss this area as you enter the lobby to be greeted by bright red geometrically shaped stools and large LED screens on the walls, the abundance of casual seating areas that are a call for one to settle down for a little casual chat or work, dine and play in a relaxed atmosphere.

Just off the lobby on the ground floor, OUIBar & Terrace delivers yet another casual chic dining space with live sports screens plus a sprawling alfresco area; while up top RED Roof bar offers RED guests a day to night hang out – from evening sundowners to stretchy sunrise yoga. A splash in the sparkling pool comes highly recommended to beat the summer heat, even as early as the day begins or after a day of work. You’ll also get to enjoy panoramic views of the wider Silicon Oasis district as you tuck into your hearty serving of loaded fries, grilled salmon or steak, vegan hamburger – or whatever you feel like trying out on the packed menu with plenty to choose from.

PLAYFUL DESIGN AT THE RADISSON RED DUBAI It’s the engine RED falcon, measuring 2.5 meters long and 2.2 meters high, and made of marine grade stainless steel, that grabs your attention as you arrive at the hotel. Designed by Dubai-based artist Neel Shukla and taking nearly 18 months to complete, with this body of work, Neel infused elements of Emirati heritage and culture into this stand out sculpture, adding silver headphones

to the falcon’s neck to signify the falcon’s connection to the new generation.

And connected to the upwardly mobile younger guest the property is! But that’s not to say the young at heart won’t enjoy the quirky design and creative flare that went into bringing the aesthetics all together. What’s a given is that the Radisson RED’s brand architecture is everything about piquing the curiosity of instinctively connected generations – whether by necessity or sheer desire to stay in the know of things! The Radisson RED Dubai speaks to the professional, the student, the creative and the holidaymaker, as you see a host of murals that carry visuals emblematic of

local culture across the halls and corridors, contrasted with modern furnishing and contemporary design elements throughout the hotel. The falcon makes its appearance ever so often on the wall paintings as if to further invite you to get comfortable and connect with his significance to the story of Dubai, and with others staying and working at the hotel.

Radisson RED Dubai Silicon Oasis is the centre of Dubai Digital Park, with its brand essence neatly integrating into an environment that already speaks to the spirited learner, innovator and connector. White walls, big murals, striking engine red oversized balloon statues, a lobby food truck station, bicycles, cool benches, and more, are incredibly eye catching as much as they are a call to casual relaxation in an atmosphere that’s all about a “cool vibe”. The Radisson RED experience is everything about celebrating the creative culture of a destination by bring together local artists and present their interpretation of the iconic elements of the place in which the hotel operates. It is also about meshing convenience and affordability at the epicenter of Dubai’s learning evolutionary story, boldly contributing to the development of the city’s education tourism landscape by providing a modern space for guests to call home.
