Who this hotel is for: Customers who want a bargain on luxuriousness: - Its price point compared to other 5 star major hotels in Seoul versus competitors like Shilla, Intercontinental, etc. - Small luxury details: an example would be the gym room/swimming pool locker room. There was a separate section with mirrors and additional creams (e.g. face toners and emulsions) to chillax after your workout. - For runners, there is a nice running trail looping a lake near-by Who this hotel is not for: people who value efficiency - The elevator experience took so long that it was ridiculous. It took us at least 40 minutes to get to the ground floor during the peak hour. - Their infrastructure simply could not handle a high traffic season. We stayed at floor 17. we waited for 10 minutes just for one elevator to arrive, only to find out its full, so we had to wait for the next one and all took a ride up to floor 32 and head back down while the elevator stopped at every single floor. What’s worse was you then have to switch to get another elevator from floor 6. I joked with my wife and said let’s just jump off the building from floor 6. I got a PTSD afterwards and avoided going back to the hotel as much as possible. - For the avoidance of doubt, I have also stayed at other hotels during the peak holiday season, e.g. Shilla, Intercontinental. This issue really is specific to Sofitel.

We reserved a family prestige 1 bedroom suite and were pleasantly surprised that it came with a powder room as well as a full master bathroom perfect for a family of four. The sofa bed in the living room was large enough for our 12 year-old and eight-year-old children to share, and the staff set it up so nicely for them to sleep in. Cannot speak highly enough of the bed, comfort, cleanliness of the room, robes for amenities, slippers, and all the toiletries that were available for use in the bathroom my son enjoyed the tub and we enjoyed the shower. The location was very convenient to the subway, convenient to breakfast places even when you were jetlagged early in the morning, and easily walkable to the latte mall for shopping and or eating. Loved looking at the beautiful lake across the street morning and night. Would love to return back to the Sofitel in Seoul again very soon! Thank you for a wonderful and pleasant and luxurious stay!

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.
