The hotel group has joined hands with Goa-based Alcon Victor Group to upgrade the existing three-star property into five star under the brand Radisson Goa at Candolim, nine kms from here.
"This is our fifth hotel in Goa, a popular destination for leisure travellers from around the world and India. We are honoured and excited to partner with Alcon Victor group for our second hotel with them," Chief Executive Officer, Carlson Rezidor Hotels (South Asia), Raj Rana said.
He said opening of Radisson Goa, Candolim strengthens the group's pole position as the number one international hotel operator in India with a network of over 110 hotels in operation and under development.

"With the tourism sector facing a slow down on the international front, we have to concentrate on domestic arrivals," Chairman, MD of Alcon Victor Group, Victor Albuquerque said.
The 'brand consciousness' has come to India due to which his company tied up with the brand, which is known across, he said.
The proposed international airport at Mopa in North Goa will benefit the entire hospitality industry in Goa, including the newly opened facility at Candolim, Albuquerque added.
