By GlobalDataHyatt Place Busan Yeonsan worked with South Korean design firm RMSJ to implement architectural features and interiors inspired by concepts referencing Busan’s urban landscape.
Public areas such as the lobby present a blend of modern Korean design principles with structured lines and selected materials reflecting the city environment.
Hyatt Place Busan Yeonsan general manager Richard Kim said: “We are excited to introduce the Hyatt Place brand to the incredible city of Busan, as it celebrates a milestone of over three million visitors.
“Blending rich culture, stunning coastal scenery and dynamic business opportunities, Busan is a wonderful destination. Our dedicated team is proud to offer a hotel experience that is welcoming, seamless and convenient. We hope that guests will choose to return every time they are in Busan.”
