My stay at the Grand Hyatt Seoul was a mixed bag. While the staff were friendly and the location offered stunning views, I had serious issues with room size and soundproofing. I wouldn't rate it as a top-tier experience given the price I paid.
Rooms
5.0
The room was smaller than I expected, especially the bathroom, which felt cramped. For the price of over £300, I anticipated more space and comfort but was disappointed with the lack of soundproofing, which made for a very noisy night.
Service
5.0
The staff tried to be helpful, but their response to my noise complaint was inadequate. Despite their politeness, they seemed overwhelmed, as if they were overworked and unable to provide the high-end service I expected.
Location
5.0
The hotel is situated in a great spot with wonderful views of Seoul, but access to nearby shops and public transport was lacking. The steep walk back up was a challenge, especially late at night when taxis were unreliable.
Dining
5.0
While the food presentation was appealing, the taste didn't match the price. I found the dining options to be overpriced without delivering a corresponding quality. It's a letdown for what you pay.
Facilities
5.0
The amenities offered were decent, but there were glaring issues like a hole in the gym floor and poor room numbering. Plus, the shuttle service could be more frequent, as I found it lacking for the location's needs.

My stay at the Grand Hyatt Seoul was quite the experience. The stunning views from my room left me in awe, although I found access to the hotel somewhat challenging given its location on a steep hill. The staff was friendly and eager to assist, but some aspects of the service were a bit disappointing, especially regarding the spa access and room maintenance.

While the hill location makes for stunning views, it's quite a trek from the nearest train station.

I had an amazing stay at the Grand Hyatt Seoul, with stunning views and a fantastic location just above the city. While the hill climb back to the hotel can be a workout, the convenience of affordable taxis makes it easy to get around. The room was comfortable, but I did find it a bit on the smaller side. Overall, it was a good experience that I would love to repeat.

The facilities were impressive, with fun aspects like the pool area. However, the jacuzzi could definitely use an upgrade-it was quite small.

My stay at Grand Hyatt Seoul was largely positive, highlighted by fantastic views and a welcoming atmosphere. The breakfast buffet at the Terrace offered an excellent start to my day. However, the location required a bit of effort to navigate back to the hotel, especially after a long day of exploring. Overall, the service was great, especially in the Club Lounge, but some limitations in the room amenities and transportation options left me wanting a bit more.

My stay at the Grand Hyatt Seoul was good. the views of the city from my room were absolutely stunning. The Grand Club experience was a highlight with its great selection of food during breakfast and happy hour. However, there were a few downsides, like the slightly small room size and the limited local amenities due to the hotel's hilltop location.

The hotel is positioned halfway up a hill. which provides stunning views but makes it slightly inconvenient for getting around. I found myself relying on taxis more than I would have liked.
Dining

Dining options were diverse and of high quality, especially the offerings at the Grand Club. The only downside was that prices for room service and certain amenities felt a bit steep.
Facilities

The facilities were overall nice, although I missed out on using the indoor pool due to construction. and I did feel that some amenities came with hidden costs.
