Noisy

The loacation was top notch - wish the parking was free as a hotel guest. Very noisy in the night, felt like someone was coming into the room. Banging doors, not sure if it was other guests. Bed comfortable, but because of the noise, couldn't sleep well. Food was lovely.

Never Again!!! Avoid Radisson RED V&A Waterfront!

One of our international guests was booked for an additional night, which we confirmed during check-in four days ago. However, after my departure, an attempt was made to charge him nearly double the rate for his final night. This constitutes dishonest and unethical business practices, as well as poor customer service.
