An institution in the luxury hotel class in Seoul!

Well "The Shilla" is obviously a class of its own compared to the more budget oriented hotels we used during our Japan & South Korea trip. The staff was very friendly and helpful, but this is what you expect from a 5* Hotel. The bed and bedsheets were super comfortable and the view from the Hotel to Seoul Tower is spectacular on a sunny clear day. If you are not used to the kind of attention a luxury hotel gives to its guests, you might feel a bit out of place. The breakfast buffet is outstanding, so give yourself a full hour to enjoy it in the morning.

  • "The Shilla" is a few years old now and in some places it shows. E.g. doors not fully closing when you leave the room. At some point it will need a small facelift to keep up with other luxury hotels in the city. And of course the location, view, personal attention and so on has it's price. For the usual clientele of such a hotel this is of course of no concern, us mere mortals can only afford a short glimpse into a different world. 😉

  • Booked a triple room but only given two very small single beds. If there is no triple room, it should be notified in advance or not accept the reservation for three people

Great hotel and facilities with a bit of an underwhelming note.

Hotel itself is very nice and good looking. Distance to metro station was a huge bonus. The bar, music and band were very nice and the food there was great.

👎 Disliked
  • Most of the staff did not speak English very well and made communication a bit difficult. Hotel lobby feels like a metro station with all the people waiting in the lobby for the dinner rush. The line for said dinner almost went up to the hotel entrance. Food at breakfast was average and was lacking a good option of fresh fruits. As a guest of the hotel you would expect to have at least some sort of priority with reservations within the hotel restaurants. We had asked the concierge for the possibility of reserving La Yeon and never got any feedback.
