"Set in the heart of the desirable Gangnam district, The Park Hyatt Seoul boasts luxurious minimalist rooms, fabulous dining and an awe-inspiring indoor infinity pool."

Set in the heart of the glittery Gangnam district, the Park Hyatt is Seoul at its finest. Subtle yet glamorous, the hotel resides in a sleek glass tower within which ultra-modern design melds seamlessly with traditional Korean aesthetics. Elegance abounds around every corner, from its luxe 24th-floor lobby and water features to the priceless artefacts found throughout.

This graceful allure extends to the hotel’s guest rooms and suites, of which there are 185. Each is the very definition of understated luxury: a minimalist oasis with clean lines, designer furniture and full-wall windows that frame captivating views of the city. Natural materials like granite, blonde wood and oak balance out the contemporary elements of glass and chrome, while artistic accents and gentle illumination create a welcoming vibe. The generously sized bathrooms are sleek and spa-like, with ultra-modern amenities and deep soaking tubs. You won’t want for more legroom at the Park Hyatt: the rooms here – which start big and only get bigger – are some of Seoul’s largest.

The hotel’s Cornerstone restaurant brings an unexpected culinary influence to Seoul with its authentic Italian cuisine – but we certainly aren’t complaining. The stylish, art-filled dining room creates a lively yet laid back atmosphere that would be as perfect for a date night as it is for catching up with friends over a bottle (or two) of top-notch Italian wine. The Timber House is a sophisticated and snazzy venue that doubles as both a Japanese restaurant and an upscale vinyl music bar – this is also the place to go if you’re in search of a fine cigar. If you’re in the mood for contemporary Korean and a romantic ambience, look no further than The Lounge which serves everything from traditional teas and confections to divine dinners, all with spellbinding panoramic views.

All the vibrance of the fast-paced city is just outside the hotel’s doors, which makes the tranquillity found within all the more welcome. A dip in the lofty indoor granite infinity pool gives one the feeling of floating high above the city, an illusion that becomes even more magical in the evenings when the glittering skyline looks like a sky full of stars (and when the pool switches to being adults-only). Those views can also be enjoyed from the hotel’s airy, state-of-the-art fitness centre as well as from the mesmerising spa.
