Opened in March 1979, The Shilla Hotels & Resorts is part of South Korean tech titan Samsung Group. Since its establishment, it has been one of the growth engines of the South Korean service industry with pride and responsibility as “the face representing Samsung Group” and “the hotel representing Korea”.

Apart from hospitality investment, The Shilla operates a number of duty-free stores in South Korean and foreign airports, including venues at three of Asia’s busiest airports: Singapore’s Changi Airport, Hong Kong International Airport, and Incheon International Airport.
