  • Envisioned by Monaco-based architectural team Humbert & Poyet, the Seoul hotel is a design lover’s dream with its unique blend of striking midcentury modern aesthetic, bold colors, gilded accents and classic Korean design elements.
  • For some of the best Gangnam skyline views, head to the top floor. The sky-high heated pool and deck provide a serene spot for a morning dip as well as jaw-dropping vistas.
  • Go to 1914 Lounge & Bar for tea in the afternoon and cocktails in the evening. While you sip, soak up the stunning design and the panoramas from the 30-foot-tall glass windows overlooking the city.
  • While Seoul is packed with palate-pleasing restaurants, you don’t have to leave your hotel to find a tasty bite.

Think plush beds made with Frette’s exclusive Andrea linens, Byredo’s Le Chemin bath products, private bars stocked with all the essentials for in-room cocktails, cutting-edge technology like AirDressers (closets that sanitize and steam clothes) and, of course, breathtaking views of the Seoul skyline.
