I was extremely disappointed in my recent stay at the Imperial Palace Hotel in Seoul. We booked 2 rooms on a non-smoking floor, but upon arrival discovered one of the rooms reeked and had obviously been smoked in recently. We immediately asked to switch rooms and the front desk refused to accommodate. Upon arrival back in the US, we tried... More

We stayed in a double deluxe room at the Imperial Palace Hotel for two nights based on a recommendation from someone who lives in Seoul. Here is the breakdown of our experience: 1. Location: Central but still removed from the hustle and bustle of the Gangnam area. The closest coffee shop to the hotel is located 5 minutes away and... More

In November they say winter has arrived but we felt hot as the AC was not working so they had to give us... More

Not only this place has high price tag, you got to be buying your dental and shaving kit. The room size is small and I will probably never return there ever.
