The Ritz Carlton is located close to the business centre and local niight life. Expensive but very clean, fresh decor and excellent staff. My second visit here and can recommend staying when viviting Seoul. Staff very attentive without being intrusive. Food in the restaurants is first class. Choice of western and eastern cuisine. Steaks are melt in the mouth tender.

Genuine and lovely people - you can't tip, ever at this hotel. I found the rooms to be a bit dated, and the non smoking policy isn't enforced so you can smell smoke in the room, which is a shame. I would stay here again though, because it seems to be one of the finest places in Seoul. And did... More

I only stayed 1 night at the Ritz on a business visit. My office destination was nearby I've stayed at the Grand Hyatt and the Shilla in the past and prefer both. I was upgraded to a beautiful mini-suite which was well appointed. Disappointed to find (hear) that the noise from the street and music from somewhere (?) was constant... More

My friends and I stayed at the hotel for two nights. We were very impressed with the service of the staff. We had quite a number of questions asking them how to get around in the city as we do not speak Korean and they patiently printed maps and wrote down the names for us to show taxi drivers. The...

We stayed there for 3 nights. We have stayed in several Ritz Carlton Hotels around the world and this is a little below the others though very good in general terms. The location for sightseeing purposes is not the best but the metro station is practically in the corner which is really convenient, safe and clean. I would recommend the... More

I recently stayed here for a week-long business conference in the hotel. The hotel lived up to its reputation for impressive facilities and service. The lobby staff were extremely polite and helpful, and most spoke English quite well. The conference rooms were very suitable and easy to access from the lobby. Wireless internet in the conference room worked very well.... More

My family recently had an opportunity to stay here for one night on weekend getaway from our daily boring life. First of all, this isn't our first time staying at this hotel and my family (2 yrs & 5 yrs old girls) have a habit of staying at local hotels for short getaways. The reason we chose to stay here...

I stayed at the Ritz Carlton, Seoul in June 2011 and this was probably one of the best rooms I have ever stayed in. While I've stayed in most expensive properties, this room had EVERYTHING that I needed. The room was actually a two-room suite. There was a sitting room with desk, TV, mini-bar, love seat in one room and... More
