Ask for a room above the 15th floor facing the river for spectacular views.
Rough Guide "It proudly claims to have the biggest bathrooms in Korea, though the rooms are otherwise bland, and occasionally patchy service means that they’re not really worth the money."
Michelin Guide "This luxury hotel provides top quality service close to the shopping malls of Central City. The most spacious rooms, recently renovated, have views over the river or to the mountains."
Star Service "This 34-story metal and glass building sits in the center of the Kangnam district on the south side of Seoul, known as a business area and for its nightlife." Full review

Frommer's "A world-class hotel, it is central to the financial district and convenient to the subway." Full review
Rough Guide "Like others in the chain, the Lotte sits on top of a busy shopping mall."
Michelin Guide "An upscale hotel adjacent to the Olympic Park. If you have children, you can rent a Character Room with magical decorations."
Lonely Planet "Next to the theme park Lotte World, this luxury hotel is typical of Lotte’s version of ‘euro palatial’. Natural wood and pastel shades make the rooms less flamboyant than the public areas."
Oyster Upscale
"This upscale 469-room property in Jamsil-dong is part of Lotte World -- a sprawling fun zone that encompasses one of the world’s largest indoor amusement parks." Full review
