2025 Forbes Travel Guide: Top Hotels in South Korea

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Forbes Travel Guide has officially announced its "2025 Forbes Travel Guide" through its official website on the 12th.

 

Known as the "Michelin Guide for hotels," the Forbes Travel Guide employs anonymous evaluators who visit hotels worldwide each year, assessing facilities and services based on nearly 900 strict criteria.

 

Hotels are then categorized into three ratings: 5-star, 4-star, or recommended hotels.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5-Star Hotels

1. Four Seasons Hotel Seoul

The world-renowned Forbes Travel Guide recognizes The Shilla Seoul for its personalized customer service and exceptional restaurant operations.

Art Paradiso, another 4-star recipient, is a luxury boutique hotel where all 58 rooms are designed as suites, ensuring an exclusive and opulent stay for guests.

Park Hyatt Seoul, subtly nestled among Gangnam’s towering skyscrapers, stands out with its exclusive hidden entrance that leads to a sky lobby offering breathtaking panoramic city views.

 

Designed by the Japanese firm Super Potato, the hotel's interior embodies Nippon minimalism, featuring clean lines, natural materials, and meticulous attention to detail.

 

The hotel delivers an experience that feels more like a private retreat than a conventional luxury stay, making it a favored destination for travelers seeking both sophistication and tranquility.

 

The 2025 Forbes Travel Guide reaffirms South Korea’s standing as a hub for world-class hospitality, recognizing the nation’s top hotels for their excellence in service, luxury, and guest experience.
