THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL (Formerly: Lotte Hotel Seoul)

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL (Formerly: Lotte Hotel Seoul)

10/10 Excellent
"The best location! This 5-star hotel is located right across the street from Myeong-dongโ€™s shopping area. I love how it separates the busy shopping district from the hotelโ€™s peaceful, upscale atmosphere. Once you cross the street from Myeong-dong shopping street, it feels much quieter and more luxurious. The perfect location for shopping while still enjoying a relaxing stay!"

LOTTE CITY HOTEL GURO

10/10 Excellent
"Lotte City Hotel Guro was a great hotel to stay at. The hotel is well kept and the staff was nice and very helpful. Location wise, it was between a 25 to 35-minute train ride from everywhere I wanted to go around Seoul. It was around a 5-10 minute walk away from the nearest train station. The neighborhood the hotel was based in had a lot to offer as well (convenience stores, malls, restaurants, etc.). The gym, outdoor terrace, and onsite laundromat were great. It is also right by a bus stop that takes you to ICN airport which was very convenient. Would stay here again."
