I was quite impressed with Westin Chosun during our first stay there few years ago, that's why we went back again. Our second stay was also a pleasant one - friendly & polite staff, helpful concierge, great location. However, despite the newly renovated public areas, this hotel obviously pales when comparing to the modern & luxurious 5-star hotels all over... More

Nothing really to complain about in this hotel, it is good Westin standard, has a nice 25m pool that you can actually swim laps in, and the rooms are large, clean, quiet, and come with a Nespresso machine and two capsules per night. Much of Seoul, including night life, is in walking distance. A room with hardwood floor would have... More

Not a cheap hotel but the location was perfect with a quick stopover in Seoul. We used the Korean Air Limo bus to transfer and it stops off at the hotel so was easy and cheap to get there. The Limo bus is very comfortable with big reclining seats by the way. The hotel is as you might expect at... More

I've stayed at the Westin Chosun many times starting in 1995. With the recent renovation it's really one of the most nicely decorated hotels in the world. I personally don't like ornate, flowery places. So the Westin, modern, sleek style suits me well. The newly renovated gym is also outstanding. There are a number of choices for restaurants in the...

Rooms a bit on the small side, feel a little cramped. Well-done interior, good quality food from restaurants, if a little overpriced. Breakfast in the basement was a bit grim with flourescent lighting; although food was extensive and generally good. More

I just loved it. I usually avoid big hotels and stay in boutiques and B&Bs for the level of service, but this one was just everything we needed. The room was super comfortable - the bed was just superb, I could stay in it all day. The layout of the room was great - the rooms are not big, but... More

Great for tourists as well as business travelers. Deoksu Palace is across the street. Also very close to many shopping places. Internet is too expensive though but there are many nearby places with free wifi. Cheonggye stream is close by and has nice light shows at night and also is a good place to walk during the day. More

It's been 10 years since I last stayed here and they have renovated all the rooms; the hardware part of the equation is excellent. The location is also about the best of any hotel in Seoul; near Namdaemun, Myong-dong, and close to most business and other stuff. Unless your business takes you to Kangnam, it really can't be beat for... More

Stayed here for business in mid-December and had extensive opportunities to use the business center and restaurants. My experience was very positive. The hotel is located in a great spot, close to major businss and shopping opportunities and a Starbucks right in front of the building. The rooms are small but perfectly acceptable, not as spacious as I would have... More
