New Radisson ‘Dream Deals’ hotel sale launching today

Radisson Blu, Radisson RED, Radisson, Park Plaza and Park Inn are launching their latest ‘Dream Deals’ sale today.

It offers a discount of up to 20% on rooms booked by 31st December for stays until 31st January. It covers hotels across Europe, the Middle East, Asia Pacific and Africa.

The special Radisson page for the sale is here.

It stacks with the current Radisson bonus ….

Remember that, for stays up to 31st December, you will earn 5,000 bonus Radisson Rewards points on every stay. I value a Radisson Rewards point at around 0.33p so this an extra £15 of value on top of your base points, and a great return on a cheap short stay.

You need to register for the 5,000 bonus points offer here. You MUST register in advance.

PS. Our recent review of the new Radisson RED Heathrow is here and our review of the new Radisson Heathrow is here. As new (well, gutted and refurbished) hotels, rooms are modern and clean and can be decent value – especially with 5,000 bonus points if you stay before New Year.

How to earn Radisson Rewards points and status from UK credit cards (December 2021)

Radisson Rewards does not have a dedicated UK credit card. However, you can earn Radisson Rewards points by converting Membership Rewards points earned from selected UK American Express cards.  These include:

• American Express Preferred Rewards Gold (review here, apply here) – sign-up bonus of 20,000 Membership Rewards points converts into 60,000 Radisson Rewards points. This card is FREE for your first year and also comes with two free airport lounge passes.

• The Platinum Card from American Express (review here, apply here) – sign-up bonus of 30,000 Membership Rewards points converts into 90,000 Radisson Rewards points

• American Express Rewards credit card (review here, apply here) – sign-up bonus of 5,000 Membership Rewards points converts into 15,000 Radisson Rewards points. This card is FREE for life.

Membership Rewards points convert at 1:3 into Radisson Rewards points which is a very attractive rate.  The cards above all earn 1 Membership Rewards point per £1 spent on your card, which converts to 3 Radisson Rewards points.

Even better, holders of The Platinum Card receive free Radisson Rewards Gold status for as long as they hold the card.  It also comes with Hilton Honors Gold, Marriott Bonvoy Gold and MeliaRewards Gold status.  We reviewed American Express Platinum in detail here.
