The rooms were very small compared to Beijing, Macau or Hong Kong Hotels. The decor was dated and I just felt that the rooms had not been decorated or redesigned since the 80's. The food was very good and the bar provided a great evening for my colleague and I more

Easily the best hotel I have stayed at. ROOMS --> Large, opulent, soothing, recent renovations helped! FOOD --> Breakfast rocks, so does the garden restaurant. LOCATION --> Rather inconvenient in terms of public transport accessibility PRICE --> Corporate rate was value for money more

The hotel is in the "new" southern part of Seoul. So if your business is in that area (Gangnam) it's location is superb but if it is across the river allow several hours for Seoul's terminally slow traffic unless you're prepared to take the subway, which is surprisingly easy to use. The hotel's front of the house staff is excellent... more

As a travel agent I can honestly say that the Ritz Carlton properties never lets me down. The Ritz Carlton Seoul is no exception. Located in South Seoul and for business this is good. The North of Seoul is where the shopping and tourist site seeing is but an easy 20 minute taxi ride and you're there. The rooms at... more

The spa is great. They have everything you need from individual jacuzzi/massage tubs to authentic Japanese wooden style high temperature baths. Very clean, multilingual staff, excellent buffet in the Oksan and excellent restaurant garden outside. Very nice bar called the Ritz. Room service was excellent. I didn't like having to pay for each of us to use the spa, but... more

I didn't enjoy my experience at staying at the Ritz in Seoul. First of all the room was very small and dated and the light in the corridor didn't work. The maintance guy came to fix quite quickly but it still didn't work. There was no tootbrush in the bathroom - very annoying expecialy when you notice it late in... more

Wonderful stay. We decided on the Ritz to take advantage of their Bulgari/ Club room offer. The Vallet parking was excellent, Club room personalised checkin was professional and personalised. The club lounge was being refurbished and the bar was being used in the interim for evening drinks. The only feedback would be the smell of stale cigarette smoke in the... more

The bed is very good and service attentive, but there's absolutely no way to justify the absence of free Internet service when you are popping $150 a night in the capital of arguably the best connected country in the planet. I was certainly appalled to check that you get shower gels but no other toiletries and toothbrush, toothpaste, razor and... more

I have been to Seoul many times and usually stayed at COEX or Lotte hotel, however this time, all the kng-size bedroom were fully booked. Thus moved to Ritz-Carlton. The room was far from expectation. It was too warm. Although they did tried their best to cater to my needs, and upgarded me to a suite. But still the temperature... more

I was worried to book the RC Seoul after reading the reviews..but after staying at the JW Marriott and feeling like I got nickled and dimed....I decided to give the RC a chance....I am a RC FAN...and I was not disappointed. The feel of this Ritz is different..but still wonderfully familiar. The renovated room was lovely...Asia influence...views of Seoul and... more
