Character and identity
A 29-storey glass-and-steel tower in Gwanghwamun shaped as a contemporary read on a Korean palace, this is a hotel that takes its setting seriously. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame Gyeongbokgung Palace on one side and the skyline of central Seoul on the other. The lobby centres on a circular bronze fireplace cast as a map of Korea, and work by more than 130 Korean artists runs through the building. Eight restaurants and bars, the largest collection in any Korean hotel, sit alongside a serious wellness floor: an 8,772 sq ft gym, three pools, and a traditional Korean sauna with cold, warm and hot baths.
Who's it for
Best for:
Design-minded travellers who want to be in the cultural heart of Seoul, walking distance from the palace, with a hotel that doubles as a place to actually spend time. Food-led guests do well given the eight venues, as do wellness regulars and families drawn to the kids' pool and indoor swimming.
Should look elsewhere:
If you want a quiet resort feel or a low-rise boutique, this is a 29-storey city hotel in a busy commercial district. Travellers prioritising Gangnam shopping and nightlife, or those uninterested in palace-side sightseeing, will find the location less convenient.
Bottom line
The defining pull here is the combination of location and depth of facilities: you are next to Gyeongbokgung with eight restaurants, three pools, a Korean sauna floor and a golf simulator under one roof, which is why locals book it for staycations. Splurge on a suite for 28th-floor Executive Club Lounge access, and ask for a room facing the palace rather than the office towers.
