I have always been a fan of luxury hotels. I mean- appreciating how different hotel brands interpret 'luxury' in their own unique ways is always fun and inspiring. Some hotels focus on maintaining a consistent style with their sister properties while some others value a lot on localisation.
This March, I visited Seoul and stayed at a local luxury hotel, namely The Classic 500 Pentaz Executive Residence. The stay was very impressive- from the spacious room to modern and the amazing amazing view. I just couldn't ask for more!
Ummmm.....I honestly couldn't think of any word other than 'spacious' and 'huge' to describe the room. Indeed, I was a bit 'lost' when I first walked around the house. (and when I did a room tour video for my Instagram stories, it took me three to complete!)
The interior was modern and comfy. I mean.....it was super homey- especially when you were well given a kitchen (with fridge, cooking ranges, stove and even OVEN). It was just too perfect for family/a small group of close friends. Some homecook with local ingredients, anybody's in?
Some more shots of the interior:
Almost every side of the suite was of large windows- that means...stunning view everywhere!
A working desk facing the beautiful city view of Seoul was always a big YES!! It definitely gave you more motivation to work!
Or let's stay chill and relax a bit on the huge and super soft sofa!
Overall, the experience was fantastic- it was fun staying here and I have grabbed a brief idea about how local modern home in Seoul were like. Compared to other international hotel brands, The classic 500 did come more homey and warm to me. And yes, it was perfect for family or a small group of friends!
