Ambassador s is ok

Expensive breakfast with plenty of choices didn't bother to go again It's a little bit out the way from the city and if you wanted to do stuff in mind don't get a hotel closer

Amazing stay at The Ambassador Seoul! Impeccable service, elegant rooms, and stunning Namsan Tower views. Top-notch dining and perfect location near attractions. Staff went above and beyond. Highly recommend for luxury and comfort in Seoul! Can’t wait to return.

Great location with pleasant staff

The hotel was in a great location for our last few days in Seoul. The staff were pleasant but with limited English.

Near subway stop, direct limousine bus to and from airport, excellent dining at La Groceria, great outdoor Urban Oasis soaking pool, and extremely helpful staff.
Jewel, 4-night trip

It’s a lovely hotel with spacious rooms. Not many places nearby, need to walk out to find a convenience store or restaurant. Airport limousine stops here, very convenient.

Room is small but the hotel is nice, staff is friendly. Screen golf was worse than expected, and the rental clubs are terrible.
Lucas, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Sufficiently close to night markets and touristic places and sufficiently distant from them to feel out of town. Many dining and convenience stores options nearby. Good breakfast.

The hotel itself was beautiful, very clean and modern rooms. The views from the lounge were superb. There was a distinct lack of vegetarian food options at all of the restaurants within the hotel which was disappointing.

Edward, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The family room is very nice. It's a smart room. They clean and provide towels, water etc daily . Personnels are helpful and pleasant. Our view from the family room is amazing!! We can see the Seoul tower from our room. The only thing I don't like is the poor access to subway. We practically call Uber taxi each time. A bit hefty for the whole duration of our stay ( 4 days). Their buffet breakfast was yummy. Variety of choices. The cafe latte is a bum!! I would recommend this hotel when your in myeongdong area.
Donna lee, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Cleaning staff was ok but the ladies at the reception was awesome. Every time they went above and beyond to help me and my girlfriend or any question we had. This was our first time in South Korea. Definitely recommend this place.
Amer, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Room comfort was good. Throughout my stay housekeeping replenishment was poor. had to ask almost daily for towels, coffee capsules etc. no more umbrellas to hand out on rainy day. I asked about VIP benefits on check in but was told they were NOT an Expedia VIP hotel.

1. Very clean 2. The best service ever- super kind and polite staffs 3. Good amenities- you can request for humidifier, iron set and so on. Whatever you request, they are ready to help!! 4. 5 star hotel- good laundry service!!! Don’t expect laundry machine 5. Nice breakfast. It’s a bit expensive but the quality is good. Very healthy and good ingredients 6. Easy access to everything- nice parks nearby, subway stations near by, lots of restaurants, nice location to visit Korean must visit places We stayed here for 1 week with 5 different families. We had a family trip together. They were very helpful and kind! The price was very reasonable as well! We loved here!! Easy structure parking for free as well!! I loved their service a lot
Inyeong, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel itself was beautiful, cleaning maids do a fantastic job. Breakfast in the kings buffet was great but the Dinner though at the buffet isn’t worth 150k won- around £116 pp, and by 930 they rushing you out the door as close at 10pm. Swimming pool is great throughout the day, as can be very humid. Great location for us, and like everywhere in Seoul - lots of local shops, restaurants etc nearby. The doormen are the stars of the place though/ massive help for us navigating/exploring - gave some great ideas where to go see the REAL Seoul. Would stay there again.
Adam, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was very clean. Bed sheets were white, crisp, n clean. No orders. Bathroom was very clean. Housekeeping was excellent. The showers should have safety handles because the floors can be slippery. We had a very comfortable stay. Staff were very kind and professional. Also spoke English. The Ambassador- Pullman was a good choice!
Dora, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful hotel. Breakfast delicious. Kind of weird that any normal changes to the room is only done through a third party booking system. Which they never returned my 3 phone calls while there. Lunch buffet I did not do because I was stopped at the door and told ahead of time is was $80.
Jeffrey C, 6-night trip

ni na, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

Two parts to this review. On the positive side, reception staff were very helpful & beds were super comfy. For negative, outdoor pool came with hefty price tag and food not available in the pool terrace at lunchtime. Also, very child focused with minions stickers everywhere. Did not feel like a relaxed environment.
