The location was perfect! Walking distance to the main Myeongdong street. Room was spacious and comfortable and staff were excellent and could speak English. There was a bakery in the hotel as well which was nice.

The Editors room was exceptional and they upgraded us free of cost for the last few nights as we had decided to change rooms to save money. It's the perfect sized room for a family of three.

Overall, my family and I enjoyed our stay in Four Seasons during the Christmas/ New Year holidays. The location was walking distance to where the NYC was held and although it was expected for a lot of visitors to come to the hotel due to the season, all the staff were very attentive to everyone's needs. Requests came at a very acceptable turn around time, rooms and common areas were squeaky clean, the "little personal touches" before bed time were well- thought off. I would definitely recommend this hotel and go back there again.
