Sofitel is a good hotel with affordable rates when compared with other topend hotels in Seoul. The rooms are a good size and relatively clean. As with many hotels these days the laundry, minibar and internet charges are ridiculous, but roomservice was reasonable given the quality of the food. It is just a short ($1) train ride anywhere and like... more

My husband & I stayed in this Sofitel hotel for a week in May of 2009. The hospitality of the employees exceeded our expectations; friendly, professional & knowledgable. Our room had a view of Namsan tower , very clean, comfortable bed & pillows. We loved the strong water pressure in our shower & the heated toilet seat. Breakfast buffet is... more

A comfortable & competent hotel. I was on a busy 2-night trip to Seoul, and needed a hotel providing pleasant and well-run accommodation. The Ambassador did not disappoint. Late evening arrival was no problem, checkin was efficient. I was upgraded from Superior Double to Suite as they couldn't provide the booked room - but who can complain at that? Staff... more

Stayed here for 1 night while in Seoul. Vallet parking was great but as we walked in to the foyer we were met by rushing flustered staff, screaming children and many wedding guests who werent concerned about the experience of others staying in the hotel. We carried our own bags to the checkin counter and were greated by a similar... more

I stayed here for 5 nights in April with three colleagues. We stayed in the Club rooms, which provide free INternet, access to Club lounge etc. The rooms are fine; above average size & quality for this type of hotel. Good TV, Internet access, sizeable with a good bathroom/shower. As in Japan; the toilet seats are technological marvels! The staff... more

The Sofitel Ambassador was an excellent hotel for our four night stay in Seoul. The price was good compared to many other downtown locations. The neighborhood was really nicer than some of the higher priced places in the central business district. It was the kind of neighborhood you could enjoy walking in and there were nice restaurants nearby. It was... more

We stayed in Seoul for 3 nights on the return leg of our journey back from Australia. We had treated ourselves to the "Club Level" rooms and were really pleased with it all. All of the staff there went out of their way to be friendly and helpful. The guys in reception need a special mention, they have such good... more

I really enjoyed my short stay at the Sofitel Ambassador in Seoul during a transit stop. The staff was friendly, efficient and most of them had a fairly good English. The room (a luxury room) was very nicely appointed, quiet and comfortable with a beautiful view of the Nam Mountain. We had a very pleasant dinner and breakfast at the... more

The location of the hotel is good. There is a metro station 5 mins away from the hotel. You can easily get to many attractions and major shopping areas. The room is pretty standard but clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and they speak good English and Japanese. Buffet Breakfast is fantastic and they have so many choices... more
