“Not up to snuff”
This is a top price luxury hotel but shouldn't be. It is really a convention center. The food served at breakfast and in the lounges isn't really high quality (fruits, vegies, cheeses are all below local standards). But the service is top drawer and people are nice. Location is terrible and only partially made up by their 'shuttle' which operates hourly only and has very angry drivers. Compares quite poorly to its competitor Shilla hotel. Only double sized beds in normal rooms.
“Just nice hotel”
Room is a little bit old but fairly maintained. Free shuttle bus between hotel and Itaewon is available. Available one bus per a hour. Location is not very good to access big city but you can take the shuttle bus to the nearest Subwaystation(Hongje). Subway is very cheap and clean. Almost like Japan train system.
“Had expected more of Hilton”
Hotel is too far away. It's about 45 minutes away from the Seoul (North) City & with traffic may be longer. There's absolutely nothing there except for a nice Korean BBQ place across of hotel (10mins) on foot & a specialized/customized designed Harley Davidson leather accessory store. Not suitable for tourist but perhaps for the business traveler attending conference at hotel itself. Surrounding are local shops, businesses, housing. Hotel provides a shuttle to Itaewon (it's mini America, listed as an attraction too but over rated), from there you can take underground to the main attractions of the city north & south of Seoul. Nearest underground from hotel is about 15 minutes walk but ride to any attractions will require train line hopping & time. Cab is expensive & traffic is not kind. Hotel rate is too expensive for the location & quality. It would have been bearable if the air-conditioning of room did not keep tripping. Room had no safe! Hotel staffs could not understand any other inquiry other than standard scripted information they had in hand. Ask anything else, it'll draw a blank. Plus points, the airport bus stand is 2 minutes walk away & hotel provides a shuttle. Not a choice location if your intention is to visit & move about a lot.
“Don't be fooled by the name”
During international travel I thought it was a good idea to use a hotel name I know and trust, silly me. The Grand Hilton Seoul was a real disappointment. The grand lobby of marble and granite is impressive, but wait to you try the bed, what a huge disappointment. I think they are the original mattresses from when the hotel was built. I felt every single coil and tiny movement of my boyfriend. And the hairdryer in the bathroom was scary at least, looking like a device of torture. Any hoping that we may escape the hotel for a yummy authentic Korean BBQ dinner was a let down as well. The "concierge" didn't know where we could find Korean BBQ in Korea, WHAT!!! And what little communication we could make was extremely strained with the hotel staff, except one shining light, who spoke excellent English and was able to easily direct us to the location we wished at the time. I wish I knew her name, so I could give her proper accolades, but she was not one of the "concierge's", just a desk clerk. And to be clear on the beds, it is not just one unlucky room. We had two separate check in dates due to travel plans mid week, so we had two bad beds. We also thought the hotel was much closer to the city, but really it is a 15-30 minute taxi ride to downtown, and a 10 minute walk to closest subway.
“musique trop forte”
seul point négatif: au bar ("la terrasse") le soir, la musique (avec chanteuse) est beaucoup trop forte; un pianiste de Jazz discret serait nettement préférable. sinon RAS
“また利用してみたい”
●非常によいホテル。快適に過ごすことができます。 ●最寄駅及びミョンドンからは離れているので、タクシーでの移動は不可欠です。（タクシー代は日本円で700円～800円程度なので、気になりませんが。） ●ホテルと買い物で荷物が多くなる場合に、荷物をホテルに置きに帰ることを考えないといけない場合はミョンドンとホテルとの往復時間を考えると不便かも。
“Far, quiet moderate”
This hotel is the most far from downtown one. No station near by. If you prefer away from the city with mountain nice view, I recommend you this hotel.Actually I liked this calmness. The room was okay less than I expected for what I paied: not big, bit old, tv was CRT-based television, no tooth brush nor tooth paste free. While staffs were very cheerful and kind which I liked at the most. Foods and service are also good. Overall, if you want to stay in luxury urban latest hotel, I recommend another new hotel.
