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."
"The hotel is amazing, and for the most part the staff were great. We stayed with a baby and requested a crib, but they said all they had was bed railings. But then on our last night we did get a crib so I guess they just didn’t have one available? Also they don’t allow any inflatables for babies in the pools. Food was great, the groceria was affordable and delicious. Buffet was very pricey which was a little surprising but the quality is there. Obviously the chefs table and Michelin star Chinese restaurant were the pricing you would expect. Overall we loved the hotel, and the view from the rooms was fantastic. Highly recommend."
"Very good hotel. I stayed 4 night. The room is always very clean and refilled bottle water. Easy to go shopping in myeongdong. I will stay this hotel when I visit to seoul! Thank you very much. "
"The staff at Hotel The Botanik were em very friendly and spoke good English. The property is conveniently located between two metro stations and a short walk to Gwangjang Market.
The signature suite (two queen bedrooms) was great for our family and had the bonus of in room laundry appliances and a full size fridge freezer. I would highly recommend this accommodation. Just a short walk and metro ride to the main centres. "
"We really enjoyed our stay. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The room was spacious enough for a group of 3. The train station is literally in front of the hotel making it so convenient to get around. I would higly recommend this hotel when staying in Seoul."
