I have stayed at the Grand Intercontinental (5-minute walk from Oakwood) on my previous visits to Seoul. I was unable to get a booking there this time and our local business office recommended staying at the Oakwood Premier instead. It was a great experience and a better value compared with the Grand Intercontinental. It is a 2-minute walk from the City Air Terminal where the limousine bus from Incheon airport drops you off.
I was pleasantly surprised with the size of the rooms - these are actually serviced apartments with a living area, kitchen, two bathrooms and a bedroom. Each room has a washer, two flat screen TVs, free internet access, huge bathroom with shower/steam. Breakfast was served in the restaurant on the 5th floor and was quite decent. Security was also tight as access to elevators is granted with your room key only.
The hotel is connected to the Coex mall where you can find plenty of restaurants, shops, and convenience stores to buy essentials, snacks, etc.
This is a great hotel and I would highly recommend it, especially for longer stays.
