One of the worst hotel I ever stay ! Staffs extremely impolite and screaming at customers ! I shall never come to this hotel again ... maybe is their corporate culture .... the staff at the front entrance is extremely bad temper ! I cannot imagine will be treated like this at a hotel at this price in Seoul .....
Anyway never again this hotel !! Never !

From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by a small army of friendly and attentive staff eager to assist. Their warmth and professionalism set the tone for an excellent stay. Check-in was a breeze, though it’s worth noting it happens on the 6th floor instead of the ground floor. Once you’re checked in, you’ll need to hop on another elevator to reach your room. While this might sound inconvenient, it’s surprisingly smooth. With six elevators in service, I never waited more than 1–2 minutes, so no big deal there!
Now, onto the room: wow. It was immaculately clean, spacious, and oozed luxury. The bathroom? Gorgeous, featuring Diptyque products that scream sophistication (though I have to admit, the scent wasn’t my favorite). One heads-up: the hotel only provides soap, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion. Essentials like toothbrushes and toothpaste are not included, so pack accordingly or be prepared to shell out 1,000–2,000 won at the hotel.
The location is a total win. It’s an easy stroll to public transportation, malls, countless restaurants, a park, and even an amusement park. Whether you’re here for business or leisure, everything you need is at your fingertips. I’d happily stay here again.
Now, for my only gripe: I booked the luxury king room with a “city view.” Unfortunately, “city view” turned out to be a massive building right in front of my window. Not only was the view nonexistent, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that the neighbors across the way might be able to see me if they tried. Definitely not the skyline I was hoping for.
If you are going to drive or take a cab, prepare to sit in the traffic for more than 30 min even though it is 5 min away since it’s very busy area.
Still, the overall experience was fantastic, and I’d recommend this hotel despite the less-than-stellar view!

We stayed in a room with a Namsan view. The room layout is modern and clean, and the space is just right. The bed and pillows are comfortable—I had a good night's sleep during my stay.
However, what I felt was lacking for a 5-star hotel was the staff’s attitude toward serving guests. In particular, the reception staff were not responsive or helpful.
The nearest train station is Dongguk University. On the way there, there's a slope leading down to the station. Coming back, this slope can be tiring to climb. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel for families traveling with elderly parents, as the uphill walk may be inconvenient.

The stay was ok, except that the ice bucket and cup was left uncleared.
Location was great, connected to Yongsan station via a sheltered walkway. Take exit 3 towards Seoul Dragon City and take the lift to level 1 to the lobby.
Nice cafes and restaurants in the Sin Yongsan area by bus..
Back to the hotel - the concierge tagged my bags to another name. I had to unlock my tablet with my fingerprint to prove it's my bag.. (my fault for losing the ticket and yay for security). 🤣
Featuring 196 guestrooms, the hotel is built sustainably. The tranquility of the rooms with their modern design, as well as the infinity pool and indoor swimming pool, the creative French dining restaurant and lounge bar, along with the contemporary art pieces, will enchant guests. From our 20th-floor lobby, take in the serene poetry of the softly glowing Han River and the lush Bamseom under the tranquil night sky, a gift of nature's calm. Welcome to Hotel Naru Seoul - MGallery.

The hotel is clean and provides the products of GROWN ALCHEMIST for body cream, hand wash, shampoo and body cleaner. All of them smell good and girls will like this. Besides, plastic slippers are provided. Very considerate since the paper slippers would get wet after bathing. I ordered in-room dining for 2 times. Excellent for 1st time but disappointed for 2nd since the food was left cool and I waited for around 45 mins. For breakfast, it was highly recommended. The food was delicious and the price was lower if reserved one day advancement.

Hotel was great in many sense
- location just next to City Hall station
- enthusiastic, helpful bellboys who would take the initiative to help
- very clean rooms, large bathroom
- view of the City Hall from my room was great
- my room didn't have enough space to open luggage bags on the floor unless you move away the heavy chairs
There was just one thing I couldn't understand. I arrived at the hotel at about 2.50pm. They told me that check in time is 3pm. So I thought maybe we can do the registration first, but get the keys at 3pm, which is what other hotels do when I've arrived earlier than the check in time. But I was told that they can only start processing the registration at 3pm.
As we checked out on NYE, the hotel was fully booked, so they were not able to allow us late check out even by an hour. But this, I can understand.

What a great experience from the start! Had the hotel pick me up from the airport bus stop on arrival and they have regular shuttle bus available to the nearest subway station ( or you can choose to walk up/downhill).
The hotel room itself was very clean and comfortable and I really appreciate the turn down service they offer. The surroundings of the hotel is very beautiful too. I made use of the gym and sauna for the 4 days I stayed there and could say the gym has one of the best equipments for a hotel standard. The hotel can be quite busy with non-hotel guests but it didn't bother me at all. I will definitely be back to try their buffet at the Parkview another time!

SstephanieEverything was perfect. We really enjoyed staying here. The place was really cool, the food were very delicious, rooms were very great although the standard room was not super spacious, but the view was really beautiful. The location is really near the mall and lotte world. It’s really easy to find anything here. Will come back here again for sure.
CCKYNKSThe hotel is very new, everything is clean, the room is average size. The check in process was smooth however before they knew I was a Bonvoy member they hinted that the room wasn’t ready as the official check in time was 4pm (we arrived at 2:30pm)
Then they said that I could get the room now because I was a Bonvoy member. It make it sound like the reception wouldn’t help the client unless they were members of their group

DDashakI would like to take a moment to express my appreciation for the consistently warm and welcoming atmosphere I experience each time I visit your hotel. The staff, in particular, has always made a positive impression, offering an exceptional level of service that truly enhances my stay.
However, I would like to bring to attention a concern that I encountered during my most recent visit. While the majority of the team exhibits exemplary professionalism and courtesy, I did notice that a few individuals seemed to approach their roles with a sense of authority that bordered on rigidity. It appeared that, at times, their position was interpreted as a form of power or entitlement rather than a service-oriented responsibility.
As a guest, I believe that the true role of a hotelier is to serve and assist, regardless of one's title or position. The spirit of hospitality, in my view, lies in creating an environment where guests feel valued and respected, without the presence of any sense of hierarchy or authority overshadowing the experience.

AAngelinchinaThis is a beautiful hotel, conveniently located with easy access to Itaewon-dong neighborhood and a short taxi drive from the city centre.
The rooms aren’t too big but they are clean, modern and comfortable.
The swimming pool, spa and gym are nice although you only get one “complimentary” access during your stay, which is not great for a 5 star hotel.
Staff were very helpful and nice, they were very good with us.

GGuest UserConveniently located next to IFC mall. There is a walkway at L1 that leads you directly to the mall with many high end stores. However, I am not quite happy with their pool. Half of the pool is blocked for play. There are about 20-30 kids there. I doubt they are all hotel guests. The remaining two lanes are ”members only,” and ”laps.” I am not sure what kind of membership you need to be able to swim on the members only lane. That lane is usually not occupied. The lap lane is busy. People jump in and out wihtout notifying the people alreay in the lane. I hit severl people by accident because of the lack of warning. When I asked whether I can use the members only lane. I was told no. Again, I am a paying guest for the hotel. Why can't I use the members only lane? In addition, they have to clean the pool every two hours for 15 minutes (pool is closed during the cleaning). I have never seen a pool that needs cleaning every two hours. Very poor management there.

NNccs2004I stayed here for a night out in Seoul with a close friends from high school, and his wife meeting up in Asia. As always, when staying at the Grand Hyatt, you end up not having a “night out” but rather a “night in” because the amenities at the hotel are spectacular. The live band in the lobby bar, the pool turned into the Girbaud ice skating rink, amazingly cooked steakhouse, the indoor pool, etc etc. We had a great night, and once again, when staying at any Grand Hyatt, you never know who you’ll run into. On this occasion, we had run into solo artist/actor Mr Henry Lau, also from Super Junior, and was he was not only kind enough to take a quick photo with my friend’s wife, but I messed up the photo—and after learning I had bumbled the photo during her opportunity to meet one of her k-pop idols—was willing to take another entire series of photos.
The staff ended up helping me with a medical emergency in the middle of the night and stayed very calm during the entire process. Which I will also report to the company directly.
When traveling to Korea—Seoul, Jeju, etc. and anywhere abroad I often stay at the Grand Hyatt in the King Corner Suite. Such a beautiful room, but on this occasion it was just a normal King River view on 9F. A bit small for 3 people, but they made a sofa bed for me while I gave the couple the bed since I only grabbed the room for us (me) for a few hours before I head back to Wuhan—allowing my friends to enjoy the hotel to themselves after I departed. Easy checkout process for them. It was very nice.
Will definitely be back.

HHuFantastic hotel experience from check in to check out. Upon arrival we were greeted warmly by the front office staff with ice cream and water. Process was very smooth with the staff, Joshua was very helpfully with recommending us a place to eat for dinner. The room is pleasant and large, with huge bath and shower in the separate room. The room had thought of all sorts of amenities that was helpful to us (charging cables, unlimited snacks). Check out was smooth and very lovely staff as per usual. Would highly recommend again!
