Highly Recommended and other Seoul, South Korea Hotel/Accommodation Reviews

The Westin Chosun was located in the center of Seoul and had easy access to just about anywhere in the city. There was a taxi stand right in front of the hotel and a subway station few blocks away from the hotel. The hotel staff were helpful, friendly, and professional. Spa facility was excellent. There were Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Italian, and French restaurants all in the hotel. Most of the hotel restaurants in Korea are known to be very pricey and it might not be a bad idea to explore the local restaurants near the hotel. Stick to the hotel restaurants if you don't speak the local language. Most Koreans do not speak English well and you will most likely have tough time ordering food when dining outside of the hotel.

The hotel was located in the business and commercial district of Gangnam. I stayed here when I had business meetings in Seoul and thus benefit from its location. If you're visiting Seoul for a vacation I would stay at a different location since there is not much to explore in this area. Hotel service was great.

The rooms were extremely small. I've never seen a smaller hotel room. In fact, I'm not sure if you want to call it a "Hotel room". If you need some space this is not the right hotel for you. On the other hand, it was very clean and cheap compared to other hotels in Gangnam. Consider staying here if you're not planning to stay indoors.
