211 rooms in the contemporary-Korean design-hotel format on the Yeouido financial-and-broadcasting island, commissioned by Daelim Group with the Joh Sung-yong contemporary-Korean architectural register and the Yeouido design-hotel anchor position. Walking distance to the National Assembly and the Korean Stock Exchange.
"211 rooms in the Daelim-Group-commissioned Yeouido design-hotel by architect Joh Sung-yong, the Seoul Yeouido-business-district design-flagship."
Glad Hotel Yeouido opened in 2014 as the Yeouido financial-and-broadcasting-island design-hotel anchor under Daelim Group commission, with architect Joh Sung-yong's contemporary-Korean architectural register defining the property's footprint. Yeouido is Seoul's financial-and-broadcasting island, the location of the National Assembly, the Korean Stock Exchange, KBS broadcasting headquarters, and the cluster of Korean financial-and-broadcasting headquarters, and Glad Hotel Yeouido is the design-hotel anchor of the island's contemporary luxury-hotel cluster.
Rooms split across the standard Glad categories (Standard, Deluxe, Suite at 25-65 sqm with the Joh-Sung-yong contemporary-Korean decorative register), and the named Suite categories (the Glad Suite, the Yeouido View Suite). The contemporary-Korean register runs throughout, natural-fibre upholstery, restored-Korean-furniture commissions, the Joh-Sung-yong material-and-spatial register that defines the property's architectural integrity, and direct Yeouido-park or Han-River-or-N-Seoul-Tower sightlines from the upper-floor categories.
Dining anchors at Glad Lounge (the property's contemporary-Korean and pan-Asian flagship), the Glad Café (the daily-breakfast venue), and the Glad Bar (the structured Yeouido Park-overlook cocktail venue). Property programming includes the Glad Spa, structured Yeouido-Park walking-and-running programmes (the property sits on the Yeouido-Park-and-Han-River cycling-and-running circuit), structured business-centre operations for the financial-and-broadcasting cluster, and direct walking-distance access to the National Assembly and Korean Stock Exchange.
What gives Glad Hotel Yeouido its considered Seoul design-hotel position is the Joh-Sung-yong contemporary-Korean architectural register and the Yeouido financial-and-broadcasting-island context. No other Yeouido luxury-hotel runs the Joh-Sung-yong design-flagship register; no other Seoul design-hotel runs the Yeouido financial-island integration; and the substantially-lower rate-tier relative to the Myeongdong-and-Gangnam-and-Namsan luxury-hotel cluster gives Glad Yeouido the rate-to-quality advantage in central Seoul. For the Seoul Yeouido financial-business stay, a contemporary-Korean-design solo retreat, or a multi-property Seoul-and-Korean-design circuit, Glad Hotel Yeouido is the most-considered Yeouido choice.
Glad Hotel Yeouido is Seoul's Yeouido-financial-island business choice, the property holds walking-distance proximity to the National Assembly, the Korean Stock Exchange, KBS broadcasting, and the cluster of Korean financial-and-broadcasting headquarters. Business stays here typically anchor on Deluxe-tier bookings with structured Glad Lounge fine-dining and Yeouido Park-circuit running programmes.
The Joh-Sung-yong contemporary-Korean design register, the Yeouido Park-and-Han-River cycling-and-running-circuit access, and the substantially-lower rate-tier relative to the central-Seoul luxury cluster make Glad Hotel Yeouido a Seoul solo-retreat-and-design-pilgrimage anchor.
