Its rooms have been featured in the music videos of K-pop idols including EXO’s Kai and Got7’s Youngjae. L’Officiel Singapore’s October issue cover shoot with LE SSERAFIM’s SAKURA was done right here too — all this goes to show how photogenic and Instagram-friendly Seoul’s L’Escape Hotel is. Designed by Jacques Garcia, a renowned French interior designer, L’Escape and its spaces are inspired by La Belle Époque, which means ‘the beautiful age’ of the late 19th century. The hotel’s spaces immediately leave one feeling like she’s in Paris — there are stunning floral displays in the lobby, a Harry Potter-esque library, and suites decorated with the most eye-catching patterns and colour combinations.

The unique concept hotel, presented by Josun Hotels and Resorts, is located in the centre of Seoul and is surrounded by popular spots such as Myeongdong, Namdaemun Market and Namsan. But you won’t have to go far for some delectable food — L’Escape houses L’Amant Secret, a one-star Michelin restaurant, as well as Palais de Chine, a modern Chinese restaurant.
