Celebrate first birthday at JW Mariott Dongdaemun

Families can choose a traditional or modern style table for celebrations, including the needed foods. Guests are welcome to add preferred details to the decorations, through flowers or ornaments.

After enjoying a private moment at the studio, families can dine at the hotel‘s restaurant Tavolo 24. Unlimited sparkling wine is offered.
