THE FOUR SEASONS HOTEL SEOUL
Hello everyone and welcome back to The Luxury! Seoul is the best travel destination of all
time. The experience will be better if you choose to stay in this luxury hotel that we
will be discussing today! So let's get into it!
The new 29-story, glass-and-steel Four Seasons Hotel Seoul, designed by Su Sin Tao of Singapore,
is meant to look like an ancient Korean palace of old, but stylized and brought into the
21st century.
Four Seasons Hotel Seoul offers over 300 spacious guest rooms, including 43 suites – all with
high-tech convenience, spa-like bathrooms and customizable Four Seasons beds. Floor-to-ceiling
windows flood the interiors with natural light, while highlighting impressive views of N Seoul
Tower, Cheonggyecheon Stream, Gyeongbokgung Palace, the mountains and the cityscape.
Cool and contemporary, the Hotel's décor draws inspiration from Seoul of the past and
the future, combining classic Korean design motifs with a clean, modern aesthetic. Soaring
above all is our legendary personalized service – friendly, thoughtful and round-the-clock
– defining Four Seasons as one of the best hotels in Seoul.
The main lobby lounge is built around a large circular fireplace, cast in an ancient bronze
map of Korea, that details the country’s mountains, villages and rivers. More than
130 Korean artists are displayed throughout the building, including Ran Hwang, who used
hundreds of ivory-colored buttons to produce a three-dimensional Korean ship for the lobby
wall.
Every floor of the luxury hotel features floor-to-ceiling windows, which provide incomparable views
of the central Gwanghwamun neighborhood. On one side you can see the stately, enormous
Gyeongbokgung Palace, home of Korea’s kings and queens from the 14th through the early
20th centuries; on the other side, it’s modern Korea, all skyscrapers and international
commerce, media institutes and modern public art.
