I (Grace) went to Seoul for a dinner with our collaborators last week. W Hotel is a new hotel chain with modern design and pop music. I have seen this particular one described in a travel magazine. The W sign at the entrance constantly changing into rainbow colors. Half of the W is a reflection onto the building which looks like a "WOW".
The hotel is sitting on the Walkerhill area overlooking the Han River that separates the city into north and south parts. Here is the view from their contemporary Japanese restaurant.
The lounge bar is called Woobar with a series of bright flat screens overhead.
The lobby has egg-like seating with different levels (There is a W besides the lemonade at the lower right hand corner).
The Wishes Store has many candies and other interesting souvenirs.
Here is a bunch of big colorful lollipops with Korean labels. You can see Wishes underneath.
Finally, the Water closet (WC) is also sleek with different levels and cool lighting.

Very cool and I promise I didn't copy you. I guess great minds think alike or something like that. lol
Outstanding post!
The hotel looks fantastic! Not so sure about the layout of the bathroom area though: I would probably break my neck!
Wow! ABC Wednesday certainly takes us away from what we know! Wonderful!
Very beautiful! Both in shape and in colours! A great W!
Beautiful ...the W is very sleek and modern...stayed at a W in Chicago...your second shot is beautiful also....
Hope they've got good ramps and lifts in that posh place.
Very sleek and very cool. I think its even more modern than the one in San Francisco. Perfect choice for the letter W.
The view across the river is great. The hotel looks like a beautiful place to say, the epitomy of modern!
Those lollypops looks lovely. The hotel looks very chic, great photos.
