The room was excellent. I was greeted by staff right from check-in, and they were very friendly. They had even sent an email beforehand to arrange a lovely welcome gift. I also purchased breakfast, and the desserts on the first floor were incredibly delicious – truly deserving of their reputation as the best French pastries! The toiletries were also great. My stay was super enjoyable, and I'll definitely book again next time. The toiletries shop on the first floor was also a great deal with lots of freebies. Overall, a very satisfying trip!

The Shilla Hotel is nestled halfway up a hill, right next to Namsan. It exudes a classic 'old money' vibe, making you feel like you've stepped into a Korean drama.
Service: The service was excellent. Since I checked in during my birthday week, they even gave me a Shilla bear.
Ambiance: Elegant and understated, with beautiful surroundings. The room service was also great.
Cleanliness: Even though it's an older hotel, the cleanliness is still very good.
I'd definitely visit this hotel again for a second stay.

Even though it's an older hotel, it's very well-maintained. The bed was comfortable, and having a shuttle bus to Myeongdong and Dongdaemun was super convenient! I'd definitely choose this hotel again next time. My only minor complaint is that they charged extra for an additional blanket.

The hotel is luxurious and comfortable. There's a shuttle service for transportation, and Didi (ride-hailing) can accurately reach it. You can also walk up and down if you prefer, consider it a workout. Housekeeping cleans daily and provides turndown service. The hairdryer in the room has two voltage sockets, be careful not to plug it into the wrong one; for the first two days, I plugged it into the wrong one, and the airflow was so weak it took almost an hour to dry my hair. The lobby's shaved ice is delicious; I had it two days in a row. The in-room dining steak is incredibly tasty, truly unforgettable. It's worth staying here.

The service was excellent, and the staff's English was very good. The only drawback is that the room was a bit old, but it was still perfectly adequate for a stay. Be aware that toothpaste and toothbrushes are not provided and need to be purchased separately.
