The Shilla Seoul

“Before we came we didnt know what to expect as some reivews were pretty negative. That the Shilla had lost it touch, was no longer that good etc. This is total nonsense! Maybe bots? Let me be very clear: the Shilla is amazing! If you plan to visit Seoul, just book because you will be very satisfied, simple as that. I have never experienced a more friendly staff or top notch service. The rooms are equally amazing, comfy beds and everything you need. Interior of hotel is super sleek. The hotel has a very nice bar with live jazz every night (I think) and also highend shops, swimming pool, sauna, ” — Andreas

“Stayed here for a week with my husband and baby and we had the best time. We stayed in their business suite and it was a good size for all of us. The view from our room was beautiful. Their breakfast buffet was absolutely amazing. They had a Stokke high chair readily prepared for us at every table every morning. Their staff; front desk, valet, room service, dining, were all very accommodating. I suggest trying their pillow menu as they offer a variety of different pillows for you to sleep with. Very nice touch. We got a facial at their spa and it was incredible. So relaxing. We will definitely” — Alexa

“I have been a loyal guest at The Shilla Seoul for years, typically staying for 4 to 7 days in a Grand Corner Deluxe room. There is an undeniable charm to the hotel’s history, but that same history seems to have left a lingering, stale scent of tobacco or cigars in the rooms—a remnant of when smoking was likely permitted. Even with an air purifier provided by the front desk, the odor returns whenever I step back into the room after being away. The views, whether of the city or Namsan, are consistently beautiful and unique. However, the service experience feels quite rigid. It often comes across” — KEVIN
