If you visit this hotel, perched on top of Namsan, be sure to ask for a city view.

Pamper yourself in the spa, dance the night away at popular club JJ Mahoney’s or swim in the excellent outdoor pool which, come winter, is turned into an ice rink.

"Perched on a hill overlooking Itaewon, almost every room has a fantastic view through floor-to-ceiling windows."
