Park Hyatt Busan

Everything at Park Hyatt Busan revolves around the water. Architect Daniel Libeskind designed the sleek glass tower as an homage to the curl of the waves at the adjacent Haeundae Beach. And many of the 269 rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows framing mesmerizing views of the ocean and the nearly five-mile Gwangan Bridge that stretches across it.

The Busan hotel’s interiors are just as eye-catching. Japanese design firm Super Potato gave rooms a chic, organic look with hardwood and natural stone, making them feel like tranquil havens.

For more havens within the hotel, check out the seven-treatment-room spa, the 22-meter granite indoor swimming pool and the low-lit Dining Room (the juicy steaks are a must), all of which overlook the water.
