"Like W hotels in other cities, Seoul's is the hippest joint in town." Full review

"The hippest hotel in town (as all W’s aim to be) occupies an angular, 14-story glass building overlooking the Han River, 30 minutes east of downtown Seoul." Full review

"With artfully designed furniture in the rooms, neon gym rings in the elevators, sharp-suited staff and a loungey beat pulsing through the lobby, every inch of it is achingly trendy."

"In contrast to the copious cement high-rises quickly slapped up after the war, this 252-room all-glass hotel combines space-age playfulness with Zen tranquillity." Full review

"Fashionable and chic, the rooms are spacious and the design innovative."

"Starwood’s W Hotel chain is known for its contemporary style and design, and the W Seoul-Walkerhill is no exception." Full review

"Formerly the W Seoul, the trademark pinks have given way to more restrained whites and greys at this elegantly rebranded, high-tech hotel perched on a hillside in the far east of the city." Full review

"The all-new Vista Walkerhill promotes "sustainable luxury" and it can be felt upon entering the lobby complete with an 800-year-old olive tree." Full review

"High-tech hotel perched on a hillside in the far east of the city. It's a good place to get away from it all, especially at Skyard, a terrace with sun loungers, spa pools and gorgeous views" Full review

"The first W hotel in Asia would have to be impressive, and this one certainly is—the W Seoul is an eye-catching sculpture in blue glass, in something of a unique setting, alongside the Han river, at the foot of Mount Acha, on the grounds of the semi-rural Walkerhill hotel and casino complex" Full review

"Another good bet for the budget traveler, the Beewon has serviceable rooms both with beds and ondol-style." Full review

"Combining facility-filled motel-style rooms (some with ondol options) with free, guesthouse-style communal facilities, the clean and tidy Beewon is generally quiet and friendly." Full review
