I spent there only 1 night but I think it was enough to understand what it is like. First, if you come for sightseeing, make another choice - the hotel is far from old city center. Second, be very careful at the reception desk, they don't give you full information, so there can be surprises during check-out. All the rest... More

I stayed at this hotel for leasure and sightseeing purposes. The room was at the executive floor, and is nicely decorated with modern amenities. I especially liked the control panel beside the bed. You can control all the lighting, music etc. Itis very convenient. The service at the executive lounge was very good, but the selection of food amd drinks... More

The biggest setback was that there was no free WiFi for guests, but it was available for about USD10 per day if I remember correctly. The best biercher muesli i have ever tasted for breakfast, hands down. Good, reliable and timely shuttle services around town, which allowed me to wander around town nicely and have the flexibility of taking whichever... More

I spent two nights at the Grand Hilton in April, 2013. The staff there was friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating, and spoke the best English of anywhere I've ever stayed in Korea. The hotel was a 10 minute walk from the nearest subway station, but it was a nice walk. They also have an hourly shuttle that will drop you at the... More

Hotel was nice - clean, comfortable - maybe a little dated. Biggest dissappointed was lack of wireless in the rooms - even in the lobby it was extremely slow. Breakfast selection was good - staff was very eager to please - all in all - good, not great.

The hotel was nice but didn't have Internet service in the room. The rooms were large and comfortable. The lobby was large and quiet beautiful. It truly is a first class hotel in appearance. The rooms themselves feel a bit dated and I was surprised at the electronics in the room as well. The location is okay, but a little... More

I stayed here for a week for a conference. The property is clean - but the decor feels a bit out of date. I normally stay at the Westin Chosun - which is in the heart of Seoul - which the Grand Hilton most definitely is not. Rooms are OK - clean - but nothing special. The most positive thing... More

This hotel has great rooms in a very good location. They have a shuttle that runs to downtown areas and is very easy to use when exploring the city. Breakfast buffet is expensive but excellent. Rooms are large and very comfortable

Complaint here is the ridiculous fee for internet, about 25 usd for 24 hours. Im always puzzled why a premium 5* property charges such a fee whereas a motel doesn't charge anything for internet/wifi use. Only HH highest tiers get free wifi here. Also my room was ridiculously hot because the climate control's "cooling option" was disabled for winter. Had... More

My partner and I stayed at Grand Hilton Seoul for 3 nights in Feb, staff were all very friendly and the facilities in the room were extremely modern including a touch screen phone and many other high-tech equipment. Breakfast was great and there was a huge gym within the hotel. The location cannot be called central but there was an... More
