It's says 5 star but, more of a 4 star. Rooms are clean a bit dated but, still very good. I agree the rooms are a bit sterile in appearance. We stayed in the new wing which was new at one time but, not now. I found the staff great and they did smile even though some reviews said they... More

I am writing this review from a room in the 20th floor of the main tower. The room is more or less flawless and clean. You can control everything (room dimmer, TV, alarm, etc) from the phone/pc device. Great shower pressure, good bathroom accessories, totally quiet, etc. However, a few vital things to watch out for. The restaurants are very... More

I liked this hotel, but I found it a little soulless. It is nicely furnished in modern style and has all the mod cons, but lacks character. The restaurants and lobby area look gorgeous but.. yeah. It just felt like it was missing something for me. Service was just okay, too.. a little insincere. Also I think it is quite... More

The hotel's biggest disadvantage is its huge size. It is more like a premium train station than a hotel. And because of this you don't feel a personal service. so: location = good, quite central food = good room = mine was large, spacious and bright service = average Next time I would prefer not to stay there More

Lotte is across MyeongDong (shopping district) & it's linked to Lotte shopping mall. The room was clean & comfortable. Airport limo is available & subway is 2 stops from Seoul Station. More

Stay in lotte during chinese : room is newly renovated, modern and comfortable. This hotel is very centrally located and limosine station is just outside the door of the hotel. The breakfast is very good, but very pricy. Had dinner buffet here and impressed by the quality of food. Service is good. Staff are polite and eager to assist. Not... More

We stayed here as a couple after moving out of the Ibis hotel across the road in Myungdong (please refer to my review of the Ibis Myungdon for why we moved). We didn't have much choice with hotels as we were changing last minute and this was high-tourist season so most other hotels were fully booked out around this area.The... More

I stayed here one night and was so thankful it was not more than that. The staff is terrible there, lack professional manners, and are very rude. I stayed in the executive room and was met by a fairly old room that needed remodeling. The lounge staff are very rude. I was in the middle of a meeting and the... More

Lotte is very centrally located in Myungdung with the subway close by. We stayed in the New Wing (thinking new wing means newer wing, but actually the main wing has been renovated and much nicer). The size of the room and bathroom is very comfortable for 2 people. The service however is not up to international standard. The lady checking... More

By far one of the finest hotels in Asia. I stayed only 2 night in a club level room and couldn't have asked for more. The staff was prompt when I had requests and always greeted you with a smile. The mall next door was especially helpful when I realized I forgot to pack ties. It was the week before... More
