The views from floors 76-101 are genuinely unmatched in Seoul
Free access to the 'Salon de Signiel' guest lounge for all guests (rare in luxury hotels)
Direct underground connection to Lotte World Mall and Jamsil Station
Szybki przegląd: It's an ultra-luxury glass needle in the sky that charges you extra for a toothbrush and a sauna soak, but the view makes you forgive almost anything.
Przejrzane przez @pam_on_gram: I didn't know six-star hotels existed until I stayed here. From the valet box delivering my chargers to the hand-embroidered walls, I felt like royalty. The view of Seoul from the bath is something I'll never forget. I honestly never wanted to leave.
Goście, którzy tutaj przebywali, powiedzieli
The hype
Guests are universally blown away by the service and the 'cloud-level' views, often calling it the best hotel experience of their lives.
Reality check
Many are annoyed by the nickel-and-diming for the sauna and the 'mediocre' breakfast that doesn't quite justify its $55+ price tag.
You are a view junkie who wants to sleep in the clouds
You love high-end shopping (Lotte World Mall is downstairs)
You appreciate a free guest lounge with unlimited coffee and snacks

FAQ i ukryte porady
Wszystko, co naprawdę chcesz wiedzieć, zanim zarezerwujesz.
Is the sauna free?
No, it costs KRW 44,000 per person per entry. Only the pool and gym are free.
Do I really need a swimming cap?
Yes, absolutely. Lifeguards will stop you from entering the water without one.
Is breakfast worth the price?
At ~KRW 75,000 ($55), most guests say 'no'. It's good, but you can get amazing food in the mall downstairs for a fraction of the cost.
Can I bring my kids to the lounge?
No, the Salon de Signiel is strictly 12+ years old. Families with young kids can't use this perk together.
Is the location good for tourists?
It's great for modern Seoul (shopping, Lotte World), but far from the historic center (Palaces, Insadong). Expect 45-60 min transit times to old Seoul.
What toiletries do they use?
Diptyque (large multi-use bottles).

5 rzeczy, które warto wiedzieć przed wyjazdem
💡The elevators are so fast your ears will pop every time you go to your room.
💡You can see Lotte World theme park from above—it looks like a tiny model set.
💡The 'Scenic Bath' tubs are amazing but can feel exposed; use the blinds if you're shy (though only helicopters can see you).
