Radisson Blu: Scanclimber restoring highest Latvian hotel
Radisson Blu Hotel Latvia dates back to the early 1960s when the idea emerged to build a 10-storey hotel for a Russian travel agency. This agency was titled as ‘Intourist’ which was responsible for managing the foreigners’ tourism within the Soviet Union. The specifications of the project though kept changing with time from 10 floors to 23 and finally up to 27. With a height of 98 meters, Hotel Latvia is the largest hotel in the country till date.
