First time in Korea so I chose a hotel close to the meetings I was going to have (city hall). Location is excellent, right beside the city hall, lots of stores and restaurants in the neighborhood, felt safe to walk late at night. Since I was in the executive floor I could have breakfast at an exclusive lounge, where I... More

The main reason I stay at the Westin Chosun year after year is because of its location and that it's a SPG hotel. The rooms are nicely sized and as clean as one might expect from any five-star business hotel. The thing with the Westin Chosun is that it's consistent. The rooms are nice but not inspiring, the service is... More

Have always stayed in Westin Chosun for business trip in Seoul. Spacious, clean and tidy room. Being a SPG member also gives me access to the club lounge with free drinks and snacks or breakfast. It is near Meyong-dong for shopping. Staff is good too. Travelled during 2005-2010

We loved the location, right next to many shopping areas, the subway line and City Hall. We stayed on the executive level, but our 9 year old could only access the club lounge during breakfast due to age restrictions. The service was also amazing and the front desk staff were very friendly. We did have a problem with cigarette smoke... More

... Service is a given, but it seems that's superior in these high-end hotels in Seoul -- for example, they have a cell phone for you to use while in the country. BUT, location is key (city center, next to Myungdong (shopping, nightlife, just people watching, or being carried by crowds), walking distance to Chungaecheon area w/ all its restaurants,... More

Definitely a luxurious and western-friendly hotel. The english speaking front desk staff and concierge are very gracious about helping you with directions, recommendations, and travel help. I booked a spring special package with huge junior suites and executive lounge privileges. Get the executive lounge option if you can. The lounge is on the 20th floor with a beautiful view and...

I stayed here in 10/2012 and returned with family for mother's milestone birthday. They upgraded the 4 of us to an Exec suite with lounge access. Room was spacious, great view of the Seoul Plaza, with 1.5 baths (love the heated toilet!). On birthday they sent us a large delicious chocolate birthday cake and a bottle of Rose wine as... More

I find Seoul to be pretty Western-friendly in that if you are near city center or you approach anyone in a busy area (out of city center), most try to assist even if there is a language barrier. I go to Seoul, at minimum, 2x/year and stay here every time. Is it the most luxurious hotel? No. Is it the... More

Love this hotel. I'm not all that impressed with the Westin brand stateside, but this one in Seoul was amazing. Definitely on the pricey side, but worth it for a vacation. Rooms are spacious. We had a great view from the 19th floor overlooking the grounds and city. The beds are ridiculously comfortable, best sleep i've had in awhile. The... More
