Paradise City
$200-450/ notte
Prenota se You want a K-drama-worthy luxury layover or a self-contained family resort vacation without ever leaving the airport island.
Perché piace così tanto
- Cimer Spa is a world-class fusion of European bathhouse and Korean jjimjilbang
- The 'Art-tainment' concept means walking past genuine Damien Hirst and Yayoi Kusama pieces in the lobby
- Free minibar refilled daily with beer, sodas, and cookies
In sintesi: It's a dazzling, air-conditioned bubble of luxury that feels like Las Vegas and Seoul had a baby, but don't expect to see the 'real' Korea unless you take a taxi out.
Recensito da @realestatebyaudrey: I stayed here for a girls' weekend and it was honestly perfect. The personalized welcome message on the TV made us feel so special, and the room was huge enough for all four of us to hang out comfortably. The night view was the cherry on top.
