Rough Guide
"With scented, plush-carpeted corridors and muted-tone rooms, it’s not as showy as the W next door, and the views are rarely as good, but it’s immaculately designed nonetheless."
Star Service
"Located in northeastern Seoul on a historic site from the Shilla Dynasty (57 BC-AD 668), this 17-story hotel offers great views and fresh air."

Operators speak English well enough to accommodate most requests, and service is reasonably speedy considering the large area staff must cover.
Time Out
"Situated in the peaks of Achasan Mountain, the hotel is nestled inside a beautiful, lush forest"
