ARRIVAL/CHECK-IN: Inspire Entertainment Resort is one of the newest properties in Incheon, just a quick 15-minute drive from Incheon International Airport. It’s a great hub if you’re here for business, as there are so many great spaces from which you can conduct business. It’s also an excellent choice for leisure travel. Travelers will find just about anything they want here.
As you walk into the lobby, you are welcomed by a massive check-in area which helps you avoid long wait times. I had a quick check-in and was swiftly shown to my room. Three towers separate the accommodations; my room was nestled in the Forest Tower, which had its own unique themed lobby complete with a bar and lots of lounge space. You could easily come here and work if you want to get out of your room for a change of scenery.

GUEST QUARTERS: My king room overlooked the water. The spacious bed had reading lights on both sides. Plenty of closet space and drawers helped me stay organized during my stay. A couch proved an excellent spot to enjoy the view; I enjoyed a couple of hours working from this space and looking out to the bay. The tastefully decorated lavatory featured a separate toilet from the shower room, as well as a beautiful tub with a stunning mosaic to take your relaxing bath to the next level. All the temperature controls were easy to adjust to ensure a comfortable ambience.

SERVICES/AMENITIES: The resort has it all: a mall; Splash Bay; INSPIRE Arena, Korea’s first multipurpose performance venue; ample meeting and event space with capacity up to 3,000; multiple eateries; a casino; and much more.
I enjoyed a private tour of the property and got to see the not-yet-opened (at the time) food court, which had a fabulous concept of making guests feel like they’ve been transported to the serene streets of Hong Kong. A water installation throughout the space exudes the sound of water trickling in the background as you enjoy your meal.
You will find some wonderfully curated installations throughout the resort space. During my visit, they had a giant tortoise on display.
TOP TAKEAWAYS:
- Dine at one of the many restaurants on property. Choose from plenty of Korean fine-dining options and the first Michael Jordan’s Steak House outside the United States.
- Take a walk to Aurora Arena for one of the largest live media display shows in South Korea.
- Take advantage of in-room dining.

May 14, 2025Hotel Van Zandt Review
One step onto Austin’s Rainey Street and you’ll feel like you’ve joined the cool kids at the best playground in the city. Just behind the cottage bars, pint-sized skyscrapers soar. One of them, Hotel Van Zandt, the Rainey district's pièce de resistance, beckons with a song-like spirit —apropos because the independently owned property, rife with music motifs, was named after beloved singer-songwriter Townes Van Zandt. Sixteen stories high, the hotel embodies Austin’s lust for music, manifesting with a vinyl corner; trumpet chandeliers; myriad musical references; replica vintage posters in frames; and its own live music venue, which doubles as its acclaimed restaurant, Geraldine’s. Don’t miss the mesmerizing installation of colorful origami-like birds composed from vinyl records that flitter from an old phonograph.
