"Gem of a hotel in the heart of Seoul, next to the famous CoEx mall. The restaurants in the hotel are great, including a Michelin starred Japanese restaurant that is booked well in advance. The staff are attentive to detail and the Junior Suite we stayed in was luxurious and quiet. Evening jazz at the Lounge bar was a nice bonus as were the amateur piano recitals in the adjacent Artium. Close to the 10-floor Hyundai department store that is chock full of luxury brands."

Lotte Hotel Seoul

Lotte Hotel Seoul

10/10 Excellent
"Easily one of the best hotels we’ve stayed in. The hotel was very luxurious. It was very clean, spacious and the staff was very helpful with all of our inquiries. Hotel location was right in the heart of myeongdong and right next to the train station making it very convenient. Highly recommended and would definitely stay here again if we come back to Seoul."
