Four Seasons Hotel Seoul

Four Seasons Hotel Seoul sits in Gwanghwamun, steps from Gyeongbokgung Palace and Sejong Center while remaining embedded in the capital’s central business district.

The 317-room property presents a modern interpretation of Korean design, with more than 160 contemporary artworks and floor-to-ceiling windows connecting the interiors to the city outside.

Rooms are notably generous and spa-like, while palace-view suites rise through the upper floors with soaking tubs, separate living rooms and dramatic perspectives toward Gyeongbokgung.

The hotel’s wellness program is one of its strongest assets, combining a year-round pool, full spa and a Korean sauna with hot, warm and cold baths plus dry and wet sauna rooms.

Four Seasons Seoul is best for travelers who want history and modern Seoul in the same neighborhood, particularly when large rooms, palace views and serious wellness matter.
