One of eight vibes
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
4 hotels
They did this well. You’ll notice.
Ananti at Busan Cove
Architect Min Seong-jin sculpted swooping structural ribs and a tenth-floor ocean-view lobby. Dual-level fitness center with Technogym strength machinery on the eighth floor and cardio equipment with one-on-one Pilates apparatus on the ninth floor.
Grand Josun Busan
Humbert and Poyet shaped the spaces with Art Deco brass and parquet floors. Fitness center with over 35 pieces of cardiovascular and strength-training equipment overlooking Haeundae Beach.
Gold. Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.
Silver. Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.
Bronze. They did this well. You’ll notice.
Listed. A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
Design. Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe. Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local. It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Heritage. A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness. You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic. The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort. A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
