LOTTE Hotel made joint investment with Hana Financial Investment to acquire

LOTTE Hotel Seattle in December last year, with LOTTE entrusted to operate the

hotel. LOTTE Hotel Seattle is the fourth international chain hotel LOTTE was

entrusted to operate, after LOTTE City Hotel Tashkent Palace, LOTTE Hotel

Yangon and LOTTE Hotel Samara.

With experiences and know-hows acquired by operating hotels around the world,

LOTTE Hotel Seattle has a total of 189 rooms (including 33 suite rooms) on the

first to 16th floor of its 44-story building. Guest rooms feature creative and

modern design inspired by Seattle's natural landscape and offer lively and

bright atmosphere. Another feature is that through the entire glass window

wall, guests are able to enjoy a view of both the ocean and dynamic cityscape of Seattle.

12 Meeting rooms and banquet halls are special spaces where the past and the

present coexist that have up-to-date equipment and facilities. The "Sanctuary

Grand Ballroom" for large-scale international conferences and state events was

reborn as an elegant space decorated with antique, beautiful stained glass

interior and thousands of organ pipes by renovating the three-story Sanctuary,

America's first United Methodist Church with a history of 100 years.

Also outstanding is the differentiated service combining of the Korean-style

service, one of LOTTE Hotel's strongest points, and urban sensibility of

Seattle. Guest can benefit from mobile check-in while enjoying a welcome drink,

the Fragrance Service in which guests going out in the evening are offered

perfume sprays, a valet service and even the service for cleaning inside of the

guest vehicles. Some of these meticulous, devoted services are available only

at LOTTE Hotel Seattle.

At "Charlotte Restaurant & Lounge," located on the 16th floor, visitors can

enjoy a variety of contemporary menus while having a view of downtown Seattle

alongside the ocean and mountains.

LOTTE Hotel Seattle's Spa which offers comfortable and leisurely break, is home

to the first-class spa brand "Biologique Recherch," which are found in Four

Seasons, Peninsula and Mandarin Oriental chains.

LOTTE Hotel Seattle, located on Fifth Avenue in the heart of midtown, is

adjacent to the offices of global companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Starbucks,

Apple, and Disney. There are also major tourist attractions such as Space

Needle, Waterfront, and Seattle Art Museum within a 10-minute walk, to which

both businesspeople and tourists get easy and convenient access.

David H.S Kim, CEO of LOTTE Hotel said, "I have an extraordinary feeling to

open LOTTE Hotel Seattle, which allows us to traverse the U.S. on the 10th

anniversary of our international expansion. We will further enhance the

reputation of the Korean hotel brand by working with the pride of being a

representative hotel brand of Korea and extending Korean-style services that

impress the guest."

LOTTE Hotel now operates a total of 32 hotels and resorts worldwide (12

international and 20 in Korea), including three hotel chains in the U.S. (LOTTE

New York Palace, LOTTE Hotel Seattle, and LOTTE Hotel Guam).
