Luxury hotel with Lumi Spa launches in South Korea
Hyatt has unveiled its new luxury resort, set along the Busan coastline in South Korea, featuring a Lumi Spa & Fitness area.
Located adjacent to Haeundae Beach, Park Hyatt Busan features 269 guestrooms including 69 suites and a 198 sq m (2,131sq ft) presidential suite with a rain shower and spa tub.
The hotel's Lumi Spa & Fitness is based on – and themed according to - the philosophy that sun, the ocean and wind are the guide to harmony and health.
Seven private treatment rooms feature at the spa, including four with private baths and views of the ocean.
A 20m (66 ft) tree-lined lap-pool as well as a sauna, steamroom, plunge pools and a relaxation room are on offer to guests.
Korean beauty and European spa tradition is combined with natural light, sea water and touch to optimize the wellness experience.
The spa focuses on three elements in treatments; Sun to let the light in and awaken and illuminate; Ocean to promote the use of water to relax and rebalance; and Wind to inspire change to unblock and restore flow.
Signature treatments include the 60-minute French Pumice body treatment, which involves using granulated French pumice stone in a crème-base to create a gentle exfoliation. This is followed by chamomile flower oil to calm and release tension throughout the body.
The hotel, which is designed by New York architect Daniel Libeskind, and Tokyo-based Super Potato interior designer will offer a variety of dining and entertainment. The restaurants are located on the top three floors and include signature restaurant Dining room featuring open kitchens and a sushi bar.
A spokesperson for the Hyundai Development Company said: "We are delighted and honoured to work with Hyatt. We look forward to introducing the Park Hyatt brand to Busan, one of the most popular beach destinations in South Korea."
