Lotte Hotel World  

In Jamsil, the south side of Seoul, this resort-style business hotel sits steps from Seokchon Lake and is directly linked to a massive indoor theme park. It’s one block from the city air terminal, close to the Olympic Main Stadium, a short subway ride from COEX and within easy reach of the Gangnam business district; Incheon Airport is about an 80-minute drive.

Freshly renovated in 2021, the hotel mixes polished business vibes with playful, family-friendly touches — think character-themed rooms aimed at kids and families. Rooms include options like a Deluxe Double with a sofa bed (sold unfolded) and special turn-down service for suite guests. The property also runs an eco initiative: single-use toiletry items aren’t provided by default but can be requested.

Find an indoor swimming pool, a well-equipped fitness center and a sauna (sauna access and fees vary by room type). The hotel offers 24-hour reception, valet parking (recommended for the crowded underground lot), several restaurants and a lounge bar, plus complimentary Wi‑Fi and two bottles of mineral water daily for guests. Club lounge perks include Afternoon Tea and Happy Hour for club-room bookings.

Designed for meetings and events, the property features international conference halls, banquet spaces, meeting rooms and a business center. Club guests get complimentary use of a conference room for up to two hours per day (reservation required); wired internet and other business services may carry additional charges.

Multiple on-site restaurants and a lounge bar serve a full-service morning buffet and light dining throughout the day. Club lounge guests enjoy scheduled Afternoon Tea (around 2:00 and 4:00 PM) and Happy Hour (generally 6:00–8:00 PM, sometimes split into shifts); breakfast hours run 07:00–10:00 on weekdays and until 10:30 on weekends.
