Brand-defining chic showroom that makes the car a star, alongside a basement presentation area, a Korean restaurant and rooftop library.

Stay and uncover every alluring facet, from distinctly Korean cuisine to a library of special titles, exclusive events, and a boutique-style showroom of Genesis luxury vehicles. Enlighten your senses with an experience unlike any other."

Visit Field notes

Bare-concrete chic, pinsharp OLED lighting queues, and the sheer indulgent space in the cavernous showroom can be intimidating - especially if you're not actively buying a car! However the staff are friendly and talk knowingly about the luxury credentials of the own-by-but-not-the-same-as-Hyundai vehicles, and will show you the events space in the basement with 3D theatre, the luxury Korean rooftop restaurant and lending library. This is a further refinement of car-retail-brand reinvention, and arguably the best. Lexus (defunct), Lucid, Tesla, Rivian ... now Genesis - all in the Meatpacking district.
