Aveda products are used during treatments, which include body scrubs, massages and facials. Guests also have use of an onsite hair and beauty salon.

Arne Schroeder, general manager of Conrad Seoul said: "Hotels have stayed more or less the same in the past decade, but people have not. It is time for a change, and we will unveil a new kind of hotel that Korea has never seen.

“This change is highlighted by our core value of Smart Luxury that permeates our facility for an outstanding experience.”
