Metro Manila, Philippines

Our family stayed at Sofitel Ambassador Seoul Hotel and Serviced Residences for 5 days, booking 5 rooms for the whole family. The experience was absolutely wonderful—this hotel truly has everything you could ask for!

The location is unbeatable, with Lotte World right next door and a Starbucks conveniently across the concierge. Dining options were plentiful, with restaurants spanning Basement, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd floors, offering a wide variety of delicious cuisine. The beautifully designed rooms and luxurious amenities exceeded our expectations, making our stay exceptionally comfortable.

A huge shoutout to Selena at the front desk for her exceptional service. Her warm personality, attention to detail, and genuine care ensured a smooth and stress-free experience. Selena’s hospitality truly stood out and made us feel incredibly welcome.

However, the breakfast experience was disappointing. The atmosphere felt chaotic and rushed, with overwhelmed staff and unwelcoming managers. Guests were expected to finish within one hour, making it difficult to enjoy the meal, especially at a premium price. Drinks like coffee and hot chocolate were often served cold, and the ambiance felt more like a busy market than a relaxing breakfast.

Suggestions for Improvement:
1. Allow guests more time to enjoy their breakfast.
2. Train staff to provide a more welcoming and accommodating environment.
3. Serve beverages at the proper temperature.

Despite the breakfast issues, we highly recommend Sofitel Ambassador Seoul for its excellent service, prime location, and unparalleled comfort. Thank you, Selena, and the entire team for making our family vacation so memorable. With a few improvements to breakfast, this hotel could easily be perfect for families and travelers alike. We can’t wait to return!

We really enjoyed our stay here and this is our favourite hotel in Seoul. Previously we stayed at Westin Chosun, Grand Josun, both JW Marriotts and The Plaza. We are regular travellers (Bonvoy Platinum and GHA Titanium) but are just starting with Accor (Silver after this stay).

The welcome from Gwen Song was amazing and without exception all members are professional and attentive. Various service staff are well stationed at the lifts and various parts of the hotel to guide guests (can be a little confusing as various lifts serve hotel and service residences).

Senior members of management also visible welcoming guests. The lovely lady at concierge was great and insisted to load our luggage into the taxi and stayed for a farewell bow even after the taxi left. It’s the kind of hospitality we see in top hotels in Japan.

The fitness centre has the latest Technogym equipment (touchscreens for cardio and nfc sync with Apple Watch) and helpfully provide activewear and socks so you don’t have to worry about laundry after your workout. Some hotels in Seoul offer this and for travellers who like to get a workout in, it’s a key factor to chose a hotel.

The bar on 32 floor is worth a visit to get a panoramic view. We enjoyed some great cocktails prepared by great mixologists.

The convenience is great and next to Lotte World Mall and Lotte Dept Store. In the tower there are great restaurant options and a GS25 convenience store that closes at midnight.

We had a Lakeview room and it’s worth it for the amazing views. The bed is massive (like super king size) and the rooms were spotless.

the minibar fridge is ice cold so we had a few local beers which were super well chilled. We loved it.

Clearly everything works well as the hotel is new but if standards are maintained this can be one of the absolute top hotels in Seoul.

Well done to every member of staff and it’s our new favourite hotel in Seoul. Looking forward to return soon!

We stayed in for my husband’s birthday. Checked in the lounge flr. On the 32nd. The staffs were very kind to my daughter and asked us what drinks we’d like to have while we are waiting for process of checking in. We booked one night for Suite and the other night for a common room but they also offered decent charges to upgrade to the suite as well.

Miss. Hanji also remembered that we were celebrating the birthday - she wrote “Happy Birthday” on Champagne glasses for the happy hour lounge time when we came in later. She was there for us from the beginning and looked after us until we checked out.
Another special thanks to Miss Lina who also tried to make our stay fun.

The staffs kept trying to check if everything was fine with us.

There was one mistake they made on the check in time, about the second day’s happy lounge hours. We made plans to go in at the very end briefly because one of us had to be with our young daughter while the other one was going. But they forgot to inform us that the second day of our stay had the different time slot of running it. Even if I was going to stay for only about 30 minutes for myself and then wanted my husband to enjoy his own time for his birthday afterwards, we had no time left to do anything much at all. I was very upset with this basic mistake that the plan we made became worthless but understandable. They were offering the upgrade charges for the second night , so it was forgotten to inform us with excited atmosphere for that moment.

We will definitely stay here often since this hotel is beautiful, clean and the staffs are kind. Its breakfast always maintains good quality and its location for sightseeing, entertaining and shopping is also one of the too notch places.

I highly recommend to visit here and family will return every month for the staycation. Great value for the platinum members and luxurious at th .

Everything is a great hotel.
The lobby, the elevator, the interior are modern and gorgeous but there are non-promising items. The rooms seemed to be furnished with the finest materials and furniture, pleasant and clean and well-maintained, and each small part felt carefully prepared. The staff were all very friendly and at the same time professional. It was impressive to be barbarously responding to the needs of the guests and offering appropriate solutions. Everyone I met was very friendly but especially Rina Jang was very grateful for the service. When I spoke about the inconvenience during breakfast, he took care of the best I could, and the limitations were clearly stated and the car options were very helpful so I could understand the hotel side and at the same time be comfortable and comfortable. Breakfast was a varied and luxurious menu and each of them tasted great. The beautiful view of Lake Chichester is also a great advantage. A place with a lot of good experiences and will be visiting again soon.

From the moment we arrived at Sofitel Ambassador Seoul we sensed the unique warm hospitality of the hotel. Upon arrival we were welcomed by the hotel room manager Julien who urged us to communicate with him anytime we need something throughout our stay. As a mother travelling alone with my child we did have special requirements which were all instantly attended, thus making our stay so much more comfortable and enjoyable. The hotel itself was perfect, all spaces carefully designed, our spacious room exactly as described on the website and in the photos we had seen before booking, it was always fresh and spotless clean. All the staff were always very helpful and attentive, the restaurants we visited were flexible enough to cater our special food preferences, the fitness room and swimming pool amazing beyond expectations. The breakfast buffet remarkable, both in terms of quality and variety of choice. We really loved the location too, Seokchon lake is picture perfect during spring and the views from the hotel breathtaking.
Everything was perfect and we will definitely be back!
Thank you Sofitel Ambassador Seoul for the unforgettable stay!

I came here because it was my boyfriend's birthday, and I think I was able to spend my birthday happily after meeting the friendly jisoo from check-in. I also had brunch on the 32nd floor using the package, and it was good because the portions were large and the taste was good. The condition of the interior of the accommodation was also very good and I could feel the scent of Diptyque. I was able to get enough sleep:> I had a lot of luggage when checking out, so I used the luggage storage service, and sunny? was kind enough to respond when I picked up my luggage from the first floor, so I had a happy 2 days and 1 night until the end. This is my second visit, and I want to come again next time to see the cherry blossoms.

I went on a staycation with friends, and I wondered if this was how I would be treated. They changed my room to a place with a better view, and the staff were all so friendly and paid attention to even the smallest details, so I don't think I'll be able to go to any other hotel when I go on a staycation in Seoul. There was also an air purifier, so my friend who brought her baby also loved it. The bathtub was spacious and nice, so I used it well. There were three people who each had completely different tastes, but we enjoyed the breakfast to the fullest haha.
The downside is that after checking out, I went for a walk and went to another restaurant, and the staff felt unfriendly ^^;;;
The friendliness of the Sofitel staff is truly the best.

I shall start with saying that 5⭐️ out of 5point is not enough to describe what a fabulous stay I had at Sofitel Ambassador Seoul!

Upon my arrival (after long hours flight), I was greeted warmly by the concierge person, who then escorted me to the reception at 6th floor. The hospitality continued by super helpful receptionist, who provided earlier check in (which I desperately needed), and made sure that all information that I needed was provided.

You will notice the level of 5⭐️ hotel from so many elements of Sofitel: spotless cleanliness, hospitality, location, and comfort.

I really appreciate the personal touch that Sofitel adds: providing bicycles to go around (make sure you do the booking for this, and you should try cycling around Han River!), as well as informing places for food/sightseeing spots, should you asked for it.

Special appreciation for Willy, Selena, Flora, and Josh, who really made sure that my stay at Sofitel Ambassador
Hotel is perfect! Your prompt, hands on and kind gestures really left me with great impression!

Once again, thank you for your great service, and I will be back for sure!

It's a place with everything from bling-bling and pretty bathrooms, comfortable beds, and friendly staff. The Prestige Suite room has a separate, spacious dressing room, so I was impressed with how luggage can be organized discreetly, and there is a dining table for 4 people, making it convenient to eat food ordered through room service. The view of Seokchon Lake from the room is also very comfortable and pretty. The cocktail hour at Club Millésime has been renewed and improved with the addition of seafood dishes that go well with Baron d'Or Chilled champagne. I am so satisfied every time I come.

My sister went to Jamsil Sofitel and recommended it, so I enjoyed a three-person suite room staycation with my friends. The rooms and lobby were very clean and the view of Seokchon Lake was nice. Since we were three people, they set up separate bedding on the sofa bed in the living room, and the staff were really friendly, so I was impressed. I'm especially grateful to Ethan, who helped us check in👍🏻 I couldn't enjoy the swimming pool because I was chatting with friends, but I was really satisfied just by using the foot bath. The breakfast coffee was so delicious and there are so many good restaurants nearby that I plan to stay here again next time! I highly recommend Jamsil Sofitel to anyone who wants to relax comfortably in a clean facility in the city center🤍

Swim caps are very common in pools in hotels in Korea. But I’m pretty sure if you’re just hanging out and not entering the pool, you won’t be required to wear the cap.

You need to exit the hotel, turn right towards the road ()25m), turn right walk beside road for 30m (cross the carpark entry & exit), walk about 100m to enter the Lotte World shopping complex through it doors or thro Uniqlo. Once inside one can acess the subway and bus interchange at the basement shops and eateries level. Happy travels.
