RYSE

Equal parts hotel, gallery, marketplace, and incubator, RYSE envisions itself as a place for the creators and makers of the world to leave their mark in Seoul. Each room caters to a different type of artist; the Director Room, for example, features a generous layout and flexible configuration to make work easier, while the Executive Producer Suite boasts a panoramic view, luxury furniture, and an open floorplan to make entertaining easy. The hotel’s public spaces also aim to support the creative needs of its guests; flexible coworking lounges encourage impromptu brainstorming sessions. A bookstore offers an inspiring selection of niche magazines, books, and vinyl records, and a 15th-floor lounge provides the perfect opportunity for mingling and networking.
