Stayed at President Seoul, Hotel - Seoul, South Korea.

President is in a superb location for transport around the city and accessible to embassies. It has excellent local eating spots from the very expensive to the budget.

Stayed at Centro, Hotel - Seoul, South Korea.

We went there for a business meeting and really have no to time to visit other places other than our potential business partner offices. We use a lot of subway trains for movement and I think that South Korea has developed one of the most systematic transportation systems in the world.

Stayed at Hamilton Hotel - Seoul, South Korea.

I would highly recommend the Ho Lee Chow Chinese restaraunt located right by the hotel.. it is fabulous.. and since the Hamilton is right in the middle of Itaewon, there is countless things to do to occupy your time. Seoul has daily tours (LOTS of them to choose from) but I didn't take any, I was visiting my boyfriend stationed over there.

I would definitely recommend the City Tour Bus. Unfortunately for us, we didn't have a lot of time to see all the sights on the tour, but it's worth the money to be able to hop on an off the bus and travel around. Pattaya is a fabulous restaurant for Thai food. Gecko's is a great bar that plays good music. If you want to sit outside, go to Club Caliente and sit on the roof. The Electronics Market is out of control! There are soooo many stores, one could spend the entire trip there and still wouldn't be able to see all the stores! The taxis are very inexpensive and the drivers know how to speak English to help get you around. The subway system is phenomenal! I would definitely recommend using it if you want to go to other places in Korea!

The location of the Hotel is very useful where there are many restaurants, convenience stores and drinking places around the hotel less than 1 minute on foot.

Watch out at the airport - there are taxi-guys actively persuading foreigners to take their taxis which are about 40 times as expensive as a bus!

Stayed at Ramada Seoul Hotel - Seoul, South Korea.
|
We visited the COEX mall which is a short taxi ride from the hotel. Also visited Insa-dong and Dongdaemun markets. We travelled by subway because the traffic is so heavy on the streets of Seoul but it is not easy to get around because of the constant going up and downstairs, etc.

Stayed at Sofitel Ambassador Seoul - Seoul, South Korea.
|
It's located at just little bit far from the downtown. In addition, you need to climb up the tough slope. I strongly recommend that you use taxi from any direction.

Enjoyed my two days in Seoul, particularly shopping for antiques and traditional Korean objets d'art along Insa-dong. Also had a great time at JJ Mahoneys at the Grand Hyatt on Saturday night - high energy band, attractive crowd and good bartenders.
