[Asia Economy Reporter Jeon Jinyoung] Walkerhill Hotel & Resort announced on the 15th that it is collaborating with Mattel, a global character toy company spanning generations, to introduce a new ‘Barbie Room’ and launch the ‘Barbie: New Dreams’ package to commemorate this.

The new Barbie Room is designed with the concept of Barbie’s popular series “You Can Be Anything,” which supports children’s diverse dreams, aiming to stimulate children’s imagination and passion.

Since 2009, Walkerhill Hotel & Resort has operated the ‘Forever Barbie’ room themed around Barbie. The Barbie Room, which recreates Barbie’s space exactly, features pink as the main color, with wallpaper, furniture, and all accessories made exclusively for Barbie. The Forever Barbie package, equipped with a pink-toned bedroom, a playground filled with charming Barbie items and toys, and a wardrobe that perfectly reproduces Barbie’s dressing room, has become Walkerhill’s signature package that is difficult to book year-round due to word-of-mouth popularity. Riding on this popularity, Walkerhill has planned and opened a new concept Barbie Room to meet customers’ continuous expectations and provide a special experience to more guests.

While the existing Barbie Room offered guests a charming experience as if visiting ‘Barbie’s house,’ the newly introduced package is characterized by being a ‘space to realize future dreams’ for child guests. Especially, reflecting Barbie’s slogan “You can be anything,” the room includes a stage where children can become superstars and create their own performances, along with customized costumes and props to experience various professions such as doctor and chef. Additionally, for the children staying, special pink Barbie gowns and amenities from the baby skincare brand Mustela are provided.

This package includes access to the Barbie Room and the Grand Walkerhill Club Lounge. It also includes breakfast, Club Lounge Kids Hour, and Happy Hour. Furthermore, guests will receive a Barbie doll set as a gift, allowing them to cherish memories of the Barbie Room even after returning home.

Hwang Eunmi, General Manager of Walkerhill Hotel & Resort, stated, “The Barbie Room offered by Walkerhill is a special room reflecting customers’ needs to create family memories rather than just a simple stay, and it has been highly popular since welcoming its first visitors.” She added, “We hope many guests will enjoy a special hotel vacation from a child’s perspective in this unique Barbie Room where children’s dreams come true.”
