The vertical palace of Seoul, from the 76th to the 101st floor of the Lotte World Tower.
Signiel Seoul
From
428.176 €
“Rooms from the 76th floor with plunging views over the megacity, the highest hotel address in South Korea.”
Signiel Seoul occupies the top 26 floors of the Lotte World Tower, 555 metres in height, the world's sixth tallest tower. We sleep between the 76th and 101st floor, with floor-to-ceiling bay windows embracing the Han River valley, the Bukhan mountains to the north, the city stretching to the horizon. The rooms play on Italian marble, walnut wood, leather-upholstered headboards, a beige and gold palette that lets the view dominate. The spa occupies 3 000 m² on the 81st floor, infinity pool facing the clouds, treatment cabins with panorama. Dining lines up six tables including two Michelin-starred, impeccable service, Asian business clientele and couples on luxury stopover. From 428 € per night, rate justified by the altitude and the standing, we recommend a north-facing room for sunrise over the mountains ✨
Who is it for?
Who we recommend it to
We recommend Signiel to travellers seeking Asia's highest hotel without compromise on service, couples on honeymoon or anniversary, executives on the move who want to impress. It is an address for those who love vertiginous views, XXL spas, breakfasts facing the clouds. Families find their place thanks to spacious rooms and proximity to Lotte World amusement park, yet the clientele remains predominantly adult and international.
