GLAD Hotel Yeouido (Seoul, Korea) 3 Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"Yeouido, Seoul’s business district and beating heart of the global city’s finance and industry sector, isn’t exactly known for the modesty of its façades. Strolling around, you’d be forgiven for thinking these folks invented the high-rise. In every direction, gleaming glass-and-steel monuments erupt skyward, many of them plying East Asia’s characteristically cookie-cutter luxury hospitality model. Thankfully, it’s this very backdrop that helps GLAD Hotel Yeouido stand out, particularly its sui generis brick frontage. Thank design team Joh & Company for that — and for continuing the theme in the hotel’s interiors, where creatively stacked bricks lend a warm and welcome patterning to many a surface in the public spaces." - Tablet Hotels
