Radisson Blu Hotel Waterfront ReviewOn the outskirts of the Waterfront (500m/1,640 ft. from the mall entrance), the Radisson enjoys an exceptional setting -- right on the sea, with waves spraying off the rocks just beyond the popular outdoor terrace and garden area. Behind the hotel looms the glowing hulk of the new Green Point Stadium. The price reflects the location -- almost every room, furnished in dark blues and gold -- has a fine sea view. There's no beach, however, and service is lackluster for the price. To be near the ocean, I'd rather stay in one of the intimate spaces on the Atlantic seaboard or around the southern part of the peninsula. This place, with its preppy nautical theme and mall-like overtones, is a throwback to anonymous hotels everywhere.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
