South Korea: Ultra luxury hospitality brand Aman has signed its first hotel in South Korea, located in Cheongdam.
Overlooking the Han River in Gangnam, Aman Seoul will be delivered in partnership with global asset management and developer Shinsegae Property.
It will feature a hotel and branded residences, members-only Aman Club, several F&B venues, and a spa with wellness facilities spanning multiple floors.
Vlad Doronin, chairman and CEO of Aman Group, said: “Few cities have evolved as rapidly or as confidently as Seoul. Today, it sits at the intersection of culture, design, technology and wellness, a global influence on how people live far beyond South Korea.
“Aman Seoul represents our conviction in the city’s future and our desire to build a permanent home for the Aman lifestyle within it. By bringing together a hotel, residences, Aman Club in the heart of Gangnam, we are creating an urban sanctuary where Aman loyalists can engage with the energy of Seoul while remaining immersed in the qualities that define Aman: privacy, exceptional service and a profound sense of cultural connection.”
Chung Yong-jin, chairman of Shinsegae Group, said: “Aman Seoul will go beyond a conventional hotel development to become a new milestone for Seoul’s high-end lifestyle. Building on our distinctive capabilities in developing exceptional spaces, we will continue to create innovative value through the spaces we develop.”
