Our take
Travelers seeking a blend of luxury and unique design will find L'Escape Hotel a compelling choice, especially those who appreciate a Parisian aesthetic within a bustling Asian metropolis. The hotel's bar and restaurant are well-suited for evening relaxation with a view. However, those looking for a sprawling resort experience with multiple rooftop amenities might find its boutique scale more intimate than expansive. It caters best to couples or small groups desiring a refined urban retreat.
- ✓Visit the hotel bar during the early evening to witness Seoul's skyline transform as the city lights begin to twinkle.
- ✓Consider booking a room on a higher floor to maximize your chances of a captivating city view.
- ✓Explore the surrounding Myeongdong neighborhood in the late afternoon, then return to the hotel for a sophisticated dinner.

Why guests love itA weekend of Parisian-styled comfort in Myeongdong was what a couple had in mind when they booked L'Escape, and the hotel's design delivered from the moment they arrived. Afternoons were for shopping nearby, evenings for the bar, where the skyline view from the upper floors framed their first drink as the city lights came on. The boutique scale keeps things intimate, which they liked, though guests wanting extensive rooftop facilities may find it compact.
