Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the Grand Hyatt Seoul was a mix of amazing views from the room but with some issues like a faulty TV remote that needed multiple calls to reception and the absence of expected amenities like a coffee maker and iron/ironing board.
I had a fantastic view from my room which, although a little dated, was quite comfortable. The service was impeccable, with warm and helpful staff. The location, while offering stunning views of the city, was a bit inconvenient for moving around easily. The dining experience was enjoyable, offering high-quality dishes. Overall, a great stay with a few minor drawbacks.
My stay at the Grand Hyatt Seoul was truly amazing! The rooms were spacious, clean, and beautifully renovated. I especially loved the fantastic view of Gangnam at night and the live band entertainment at JJ Mahoney. The breakfast with a sunrise view and a wide variety of food and fresh juices made my mornings delightful. The staff was excellent, the spa and massage were fantastic, making it a relaxing experience overall.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room was disappointing and too hot at night, affecting my sleep, but it was initially clean despite some issues. The service was friendly and helpful, but with a professional yet somewhat brisk approach. The location was not easily accessible by public transportation but had beautiful surroundings. The dining experience was average and not worth the money, lacking variety. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel offers modern and spacious rooms with excellent staff and fantastic views, especially at night. Guests can enjoy live band entertainment at JJ Mahoney and indulge in fantastic spa and massage services. The breakfast with a view of the sunrise is extensive and includes a variety of food and fresh juices. The huge bed provides great comfort. However, the rooms are relatively small compared to other cities.
The hotel exceeded my expectations with amazingly comfortable rooms, access to the club lounge offering complimentary breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening cocktails. The rooms, while a bit old style and dark, are clean and of good quality, though slightly small. The service was well-prepared with a warm-hearted reaction, especially for Executive Club Room guests. The location is excellent for visiting international diplomatic missions or enjoying views of the city. The dining had delicious desserts and champagne, providing a worry-free start to the day. Overall, a great stay with excellent amenities.
The hotel offers spectacular views of Namsan Park from the rooms facing the north side, and the automatic blackout curtains are a necessity for the stunning sunrise on the East side. The service can be hit or miss, but the staff stays late to ensure proper check-in. The location, halfway up a hill, provides great views but may require taxis for convenient movement. The dining experience is top-notch, comparable to brunch spots in the US and Europe, though it closes early on Sundays. Overall, the hotel offers a blend of impressive features and some minor inconveniences.
Staying at this hotel was a real treat! The rooms have been beautifully renovated and are so comfortable, making my nights very relaxing. The staff is excellent, and the views of Gangnam at night from the room are truly fantastic. The live band entertainment at JJ Mahoney adds a fun touch to the stay. The spa experience was top-notch, and the breakfast with a sunrise view was delightful with a wide variety of delicious food options and fresh juices. The club lounge access was a great bonus for a more personalized experience, offering complimentary breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening cocktails. While the room isn't huge, it's just right for 1-2 people in a city where you're out exploring most of the time.
I was delighted with my stay at the hotel. The rooms were wonderfully clean every day, stylish, modern, and spacious, but could be a bit cooler at times. The service was impeccable, with staff always cordial, helpful, and accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience. The location, although not close to the metro station and situated on top of a hill, provided fantastic views of either the Hann River or the Nansam Mountain. The dining experience, although a bit overpriced, offered a nice selection of food and great service. Overall, a great value for the price paid.
