Alright, this could very well be one of the most remarkable and unforgettable hotel rooms in the Marriott portfolio (possibly alongside the Boeing 737 cockpit suite in Amsterdam, the Goodnight Moon suite in Boston, etc.)…
Marriott’s RYSE Seoul boasts a bed that is hard to believe
While scrolling through a Marriott Bonvoy Facebook group (as many do — enthusiastic Bonvoy elite members are quite an interesting crowd!), I noticed a member had shared a picture of a hotel room but didn’t mention the name of the property. Initially, I thought it might be a photoshop joke, but turns out… this is a real room at RYSE Seoul, part of the Marriott Autograph Collection hotels.
The hotel appears to feature an eccentric design with numerous distinctive rooms. However, nothing is as extraordinary as the Curator Suite, measuring 785 square feet (73 square meters). This concept seems to have rolled out back in February 2025, making the suite (in its current iteration) just shy of a year old. During a random search, I found the rate to be approximately $720 for a night.
As you might expect, the standout feature of this suite is its enormous bed. The suite appears to accommodate up to four guests, though one might speculate about the artwork adorning the walls suggesting that exceptions could be made for additional guests.
Here’s the backstory behind this suite:
MSCHF crafted Curator Suite 1503 based on the idea of the ultra-long bed, BED 2525. Investigating the evolution of human dimensions, MSCHF suggests that as humans grow and evolve, so will their accommodation needs. “Long Bed for Long Sleep in the Far Future” encapsulates the suite’s theme, contemplating an era when giants might once again inhabit the earth.
In line with this forward-thinking concept, the suite also features a showcase of MSCHF’s portfolio, including works from their LA and New York Perriton Gallery exhibitions, such as the Animorphs Series, Botched Masters, and the renowned Damien Hirst Spot artworks.
How does the logistics of this bed even function?!?
I’m not entirely sure about the size of this bed, but it seems like it must be at least 20 feet long, if not even longer? Is there a single continuous mattress, or is it a collection of “stacked” mattresses, considering it’s meant to be a form of art?
And how does one manage the sheets? How does one even acquire custom sheets of that size? Furthermore, how challenging is it to get into this bed with the sheets tucked in?
The bottom line
Marriott’s RYSE Seoul features one of the most unforgettable hotel suites I’ve encountered, as the Curator Suite showcases a bed that seems almost unreal. This suite was created in collaboration with the Brooklyn-based artistic collective MSCHF, and it undoubtedly offers an experience that you won’t find anywhere else.
