Fodor's Expert Review Banyan Tree Club And Spa
Jangchungdan-ro, Seoul, Seoul, South Korea
Located atop Namsan mountain, these luxury quarters are accommodations for a different style of vacation—the one where you never leave the premises. Suites feature options for private spa amenities in-room (like a relaxation/plunge pool and steam room) and room-length window spans. A control panel regulates everything you could need in the room—sound system, temperature, lights, blinds and blackout curtains—but details like live plants in the room and allergy-free bedding make the room feel cozy. The hotel has two pools; the outdoor pool is the center of Seoul’s most talked about parties in the summer and transforms to an ice skating rink in the winter. Their spa offers several treatments, massages, and a sauna.
PROS
- rooms are luxurious and thought-through
