Fodor's Expert Review Lotte Hotel Seoul

30 Eulji-ro, Seoul, Seoul, South Korea

A good base for sightseeing, shopping, and nightlife, the Lotte Hotel is just a few steps away from Euljiro 1-ga Station. While the rooms have a classic, Western luxury hotel feel, some of the furnishings do need to be updated. Two noteworthy highlights include its direct access to the Lotte Department Store and the free use of the pool (unusual in Seoul). Savvy visitors can often find excellent discounts, which makes the Lotte a good deal for what it is—a quality, conveniently located, high-end tourist hotel. Conventions and weddings are often held here and groups often buy out rooms in packages. 

PROS

  • free use of pool (unusual in Seoul)
  • excellent location with direct access to Lotte Department Store
  • often runs discount promotions

CONS

  • furnishings need updates
