In general, I was pleased with this hotel. It has lots of resaurants to choose from (but expensive). The breakfast buffet was great, and the staff very friendly (again, expensive). The rooms are fine. The gym (open 24 hours) is awesome...and it's free. Would definitely stay here again. More

Aesthetically, this hotel boasts an old fashioned 1930's sense of luxury which is as classy as it is dated; in my mind it encapsulates the very essence of refinement in the great depression which is only appropriate, as the longer I stayed there-the more I wanted to bury my head in pillows never to emerge again. The walls are paper-thin... More

I always come here when I am in Seoul, the hotel is easy to reach with the shuttle bus of the airport, the service is very good, the people extremely friendly and professional. For people playing golf there is also a driving range! The gym is good, always quite busy, and the swimming pool is quite and most of the... More

I cannot say enough great things about this hotel. This being my first trip to Asia and specifically Seoul South Korea I was a little nervous. Especially around the language barrier as I cannot speak any Korean. However when I got to the hotel at midnight after 22 hours of traveling I was happy to be at my hotel. It... More

We enjoyed two different visits her during our recent S.E. Asia trip, we overnighted one night on our way to Singapore, staff upgraded us to a corner suite, it was terrific. We felt great about the property, great breakfast in the restaurant on the top, as part of being Marriott Gold members. Evening cocktails in the lounge were great. Great... More

I stayed in this hotel on the weekend. A lot of Marriott properties have very limited concierge services available for premium members on weekends but not here. The lounge is open all the time. Services include breakfast, evening hor dovores and deserts. Alos complimentary beverages including beer/wine and some hard liquor. There is a helpful assistant there all the time.... More

We chose this hotel mainly due to its location, expecting five-star service, and we were not disappointed. As others reviewers noticed the bathrooms are not the most modern or luxurious but the room was clean, quiet and reasonably sized, with a comfortable bed and all the amenities. We also tried the swimming pool and sauna and these were also up... More

RECOMMENDED: Good location with plenty of night life a short walk to the back of this property. Airport bus is directly out front so easy transport connection. Subway is one long block away (a bit far in the cold). This is an older property that started with quality ingredients and simply has aged a bit. My room was on the... More

This is truly a stand-out hotel - the property, while not the newest, retains a quality feel, no doubt as a result of the effort put forth by the staff that mans it. Located not far from the COEX and down-town hotels, this is a large property. I was given a bog-standard room, which is what I paid for. I... More

I have to say I was a little sad not be re-visiting The Marriot Seoul but was provided a 3 night stay at a Mariott sister property in Seoul - The Renaissance Seoul. The Renaissance Seoul is located in Yeoksam-dong a very busy area with plenty to hold ones interest around the area. There are some really good local restaurants... More
