Two decades ago, during the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, there wasn’t a window remaining in the Radisson. That's a difficult scene to imagine today at this luxury resort, which has three tranquil pools, a sky lounge serving sushi as diners look out over the sea, plus terrific contemporary rooms with Middle Eastern design touches.
The Al Hashemi Marine Museum is on site, and the intimate Al Boom restaurant is located in the back garden – two reasons alone to visit the Radisson Blu.
