Nashua Radisson Suddenly Shuts Down
NASHUA, N.H. (AP) — The manager of the Radisson Hotel in Nashua, N.H., says the business is shutting down indefinitely for plumbing repairs due to frozen pipes and financial pressures, leaving customers and event organizers scrambling.
Chuck Crisler of the New Hampshire Orchid Society says Monday's announcement means disaster for the 20th annual show scheduled at the Radisson from Feb. 11 to 13. He tells WMUR-TV that 7,000 postcards announcing the show have already been sent out.
Perfect Parties and Luxury Linens owner Scott St. Onge says brides and grooms were also blindsided by the hotel's sudden closure. He says people were tasting the food and meeting with vendors on Monday.
The hotel with its distinctive Tudor castle design employs at least 100 people, who are now jobless.
