I only had a day for site-seeing. I would strongly recommend Insa-Dong and the Nam-Dae-Mun market for those interested in shopping and experiencing local culture. We visited the palace but because of the restorations, it was not as good as it could be. Nam San tower was a good way to get an impressive view of the city.
I would recommend that guests be advised of the subway system. It's very good but requires some knowledge to use it well. The one confusing thing for me was the exit tunnel system. You have to know the exit numbers to get to your final destination as you cannot cross streets on the surface in many locations. Guests should be aware of this fact.

The hotel is located in a good location and the limousine bus to/from the airport is very convenient.

The hotel resturant was very good, which helps because there are very few resturants within walking distance of the hotel.

Seoul is the capital of a country that has only recently industrialized, and it looks the part. A jumble of architectural styles and mixed planning. One thing the traveller should know is that to get around the city the public transportation system is good, especially the subways. They're cheap and easy to use, and are a window to local society and culture.

Seoul is not a big tourist destination, not a lot to see besides the olympic site and the palace in the city center. Public transport is similar to the london tube and very easy to navigate.

Because I was on a business trip, I did not have the time to visit the tourist attractions, but getting around the city was quite easy with the taxi service.
