"This is my second time staying here and I honestly won’t stay anywhere else while in Seoul. The staff is extremely friendly and the rooms are spacious and clean. "
"Even though most rooms are shared, it is very private. When I used the bathroom or kitchen there were rarely people, so it was really relaxed. Richard is also very friendly and always ready to help! If I ever come back to Seoul I would stay here again :)"
"Nice location, close to acha-san from which you could get a good view from seoul. While very little english is spoken by the people i interacted with I managed to ask a couple question using using google translate and they were happy to accomodate. It is a relativelly cheap hotel in seoul so no major luxuries but also no nasty surprises"

Sofitel Ambassador Seoul Hotel & Serviced Residences
10/10 Excellent
"Amazing hotel that is located steps away from Lotte World Mall (Avenue L, Lotte World and the Number 2 and 8 subway lines). Breakfast has a large variety of options, including both Korean and Western food. The Residence has a microwave, stove top and washer/dryer combo unit. Rooms are very large and our King bed unit had 1.5 baths. Staff is very friendly and helpful and a French team is visible throughout the hotel.
My two areas for improvement would be 1. the wait for breakfast (3 seating times seemed to be pretty full, but especially the later times). One morning, there were no seats, so they moved us up to the 32nd floor lounge (smaller, but still a great selection). 2. The elevators are always full (especially around checkout time). If you need to go from the 1st floor to the room, there are always 2 elevators you need to take. I understand security concerns, but it can lead to long waits. We had a room in the hotel for our kids and we stayed in the residence, so different elevators to go up to our room."
"Very comfortable room -- the bed and the pillows -- I don't think I have ever slept in a more comfortable room. Loved the view of Seoul from my window. The breakfast was delicious and the views were spectacular - from 3 sides. Front desk staff very friendly and helpful. I especially appreciated the days they called a taxi for me. Very convenient to the Coex convention center (where I had meetings) I would definitely stay here again "
