Lotte Hotels & Resorts began here in 1979, in a 37-story Sogong-dong tower. In August 2026 Lotte renovated that main building and relaunched it as The Grand Lotte Seoul, the first house of a heritage-minded line set beside its modern Signiel towers. A lobby escalator still runs straight into Lotte Department Store, and the Main Tower stands 138 meters, finished in 1979 by Lotte Engineering & Construction.
