Design hotels are a relatively new type of hotel that focus on aesthetics and design. They can be found in many major cities all over the world and Seoul is no exception. There are many reasons why you might want to consider staying in a design hotel when travelling to Seoul.

The first reason is that design hotels usually have a very unique aesthetic that you can’t find in other types of hotels. This can be a great way to experience a new city in a unique way. Many design hotels also have interesting amenities that you can’t find in other hotels, such as soundproofing features, artwork, and more.

Another reason to stay in a design hotel in Seoul is that these hotels are often centrally located. This makes it easy to get around the city and see all of the sights that Seoul has to offer. Additionally, since design hotels are often newer, they typically have better facilities and amenities than other hotels in the city.

Finally, one of the best things about staying in a design hotel is that they often come with great design-focused customer service. This means that you can get help with anything from finding the best restaurants and museums to getting insider tips on the city. Overall, if you’re looking for a unique and stylish hotel experience in Seoul, then a design hotel is the perfect choice for you.
