IFC, Conrad Seoul to Open in 2011

20Mar10

In the Yeouido district of Seoul, known as the “Korean Wall Street”, the International Finance Center is currently undergoing rapid construction in order to be finished by 2011.  The IFC Seoul project, begun in 2004, aims to build Seoul’s reputation as a commercial powerhouse, positioning the city as the financial center of Northeast Asia.  It is set to integrate office space, modern lifestyle amenities and a distinctive mix of contemporary design, abundant natural lighting and landscaped gardens.

Recently, Hilton Worldwide signed an agreement with the IFC Seoul to manage Korea’s newest and most spectacular luxury hotel–the Conrad Seoul. Overlooking the Han River and nestled among the headquarters of Korean enterprises and multinationals, the 446 room Conrad Seoul will offer guests an oasis of respite from the city’s bustle, with sweeping views of the city skyline, a swimming pool, health club, luxury spa, and three innovatively designed restaurants, a lobby lounge and bar.

In addition to the Conrad, IFC Seoul will comprise, upon completion, three office towers, a cineplex and a luxury retail mall (IFC Mall), as well as extensive dining and leisure areas, public access to green spaces and a direct connection to the Seoul subway transportation system.
