    “Premium Luxury Experience in Seoul”

    The Executive Tower at Lotte Hotel Seoul delivers a true 5-star experience. From check-in to check-out, the service was flawless. The Grand Deluxe room was spacious, beautifully appointed, and spotless. Unbeatable central location and excellent amenities. It's a splurge, but the quality of service and comfort justifies the premium.

    “Everything is the best!”

    I arrived at the Lotte Hotel in a high-speed limousine bus. It was early afternoon, but I was able to check in immediately. The staff spoke Japanese and upgraded my room for free. From the beautiful room, I could see Namsan Tower, and it had two toilets, two sinks, a bathtub, and a separate shower room, along with a closet-style cleaning machine—it was the best. I could also use Japanese plugs directly, and there were two bottles of Evian water, Illy capsule coffee, and tea available, and the bed was fluffy and truly amazing. I accidentally left something on the airport limousine bus on the way, and when I explained the situation to the staff at the door desk, they contacted the bus company while we went shopping. When we returned from shopping, they had delivered my forgotten item to my room. I can't thank the staff enough. I truly felt grateful that I stayed at this hotel. Additionally, I was surprised by the variety of breakfast options, so many that I couldn't finish everything on the first day, but I enjoyed what I missed on the second day. Everything I had was delicious. It was the best breakfast, and the staff's consideration was remarkable. The location was great, with a WOWPASS machine in the lobby, and the subway Line 2 Euljiro Entrance Station was right in front of the hotel. If you go down into the lobby, you can access Lotte Department Store and walk through the underground to Myeongdong. Even on hot summer days, it was relatively cool. There were no inconveniences at all. Next time, this hotel will be my only choice.

    “Convenient location”

    The hotel is conveniently located near the subway station, making it easy to get around. The bus stop is also nearby, which is convenient for those who can take the bus. The airport limousine bus stops right in front, adding to its convenience. Regarding the facilities, they are clean and well-maintained. I was upgraded to a junior suite, which was comfortable. I would like to use this hotel again if the price is not too high. There are various dining options around, so it’s fine not to eat at the hotel.

    “I was able to have a satisfying vacation~”

    I had a satisfying vacation with the high-floor room and the Namsan view that I requested in advance! It was very hot, but the department store and the station are connected indoors, making it really convenient to stay during the summer. I even received an unexpected room upgrade, which allowed me to stay more comfortably. I had many inquiries and requests during check-in, and even though I was a bit flustered, they quickly confirmed and responded, which I appreciated. I had a relaxing stay~!

    “Wonderful”

    This is my sixth stay at Lotte Hotel Seoul. There are many staff members who can speak Japanese, and even if they can't, their hospitality is top-notch. The breakfast is also very delicious and I can't eat it all. The location is great, within walking distance of Myeongdong.
