Kid friendly. Attentive staff. Amazing breakfast. The people were so helpful with the luggage. Seems like a well oiled machine. The staff are on their A game.
This was a beautiful hotel and the service was impeccable. I will definitely stay again. There was a staff member to run my bathe and add the salts and bubbles, totally first class.
Everything I’d hoped for my first trip to Seoul.
Breakfast timing was staggered into 3 phases which can be a little restrictive for some people if you arrived slightly late so you will have lesser breakfast time.
They do not seem to have the habit of giving creamer when I asked for tea with creamer. Often, I have to request again and took pretty long to be given creamer. Also they do not come with teaspoon which brings me wondering how do I stir my tea with sugar and creamer. But I made do with just using my normal big spoon. I did not request for teaspoon as they were busy so I just made do with what I have.
Room cleaning was fabulous. The make up room service was good. Overall, it was a good stay. But with the pricing and reputation, I was expecting better amenities like indoor playground for children can be more fancy.
The room was gorgeous with a fantastic view. We had club access however unless you're already a member its definitely not worth paying for. The breakfast in the club area was a little limited and not really at the 5 star luxury level you would expect for a hotel of this value. Overall a great stay.
We had an amazing 11-night stay at Sofitel Seoul. The staff were warm and welcoming every day, and a special thanks goes to Mr. Leo Kwon, who went above and beyond to accommodate our last-minute requests. His sincerity and dedication made our stay truly memorable, and we are extremely grateful.
The amenities were excellent, the rooms were luxurious and comfortable, and the location is very convenient with shops and restaurants nearby.
Highly recommend!
