JW Marriott Hotel Seoul | Seoul, Korea Republic of | Virgin Atlantic Holidays

Seoul, Korea Republic of

5 stars

JW Marriott Hotel Seoul brings Gangnam’s sleek energy indoors with quiet confidence. Everything here feels contemporary yet effortless, a place where city rhythm meets calm design. Step out of the elevator into open spaces dressed in warm tones and subtle lighting, then into your room where wide windows frame Seoul’s skyline. Days move easily between wellness and indulgence: a swim in the indoor pool, a session at Marquis Fitness, then lunch at Tamayura or a perfectly grilled steak at The Margaux Grill. As evening settles, the city glows below while MOBO Bar hums with soft music and conversation. It’s a stay that balances movement and stillness - where luxury feels personal, not performed, and the city feels yours to explore at your own pace.

“Truly Exceptional Luxury Hotel Experience in Seoul”

Sep 18, 2026391treet

An exceptional luxury hotel experience from start to finish. I just returned home after staying at the award winning JW Marriott Seoul for 10 days. The service was truly outstanding—warm, attentive, polished, and genuinely personal (see below). Every detail seemed thoughtfully considered, and the level of hospitality exceeded our expectations. Elegantly appointed rooms provide modern comforts and stunning city views. Culinary delights at the restaurants are masterpieces, complemented by impeccable service. The hotel's central location allows easy exploration of iconic landmarks. The fitness center deserves special mention—it is one of the most comprehensive hotel gyms I have encountered, with an impressive range of high-quality equipment that rivals any private health club in the US. Add an indoor swimming pool and an excellent selection of exercise classes, and the property offers a remarkably complete wellness experience without ever having to leave the hotel. The dining is equally impressive. The cuisine is sophisticated and beautifully executed, with exceptional ingredients and an excellent selection of healthy, high-quality choices….absolutely delicious. This is hotel dining at its finest. And then there is the location. Premier luxury shopping is literally next door, making it possible to dine, shop, exercise, swim, and enjoy the surrounding area without getting into a car, searching for parking, or sitting in traffic. That level of convenience is an understated luxury in itself. Having stayed at many high-end hotels, including Four Seasons properties, I can confidently say that this experience surpassed even that standard. What distinguishes this hotel is the combination of exceptional service, comfort, wellness, dining, and location. Luxury is not simply about beautiful surroundings—it is about how effortlessly well you are cared for, and this hotel gets that exactly right. Absolutely deserving of five stars and greater, and a hotel I would return to without hesitation. Unforgettable Hotel Staff. Kudos to the following: Helen Kim Hotel Manager Tony and Bobby from Valet Owen, Oliver from Concierge Chefs Soon Ae Yang (Head Chef) and Soon Ae Yang Lounge Manager and Staff Eric, Agnes, Hana, Ian Seongha, Saehun and Winter from Marquis Fitness and Spa

“My greetings”

I would like to thank to Jin Bin Lee (the Executive Lounge Manager) and to all the people who work there: Jinbin, Eric, Hyeon, Ian, Noah, Olivia, Lina, Yena, Erin, Hana, Anthony, Nara, Chan and Agnes. An special mention to the excellent chef Min Ji and Seo Sungwook for have taken care of me. I'm very allergic and all of them went the extra mile to accomodate for me.

“Mediocre. Rooms half updated. Very touristy.”

Sep 08, 2026BrentTippen

We had a mediocre stay at this property with a couple of things primarily standing out. The room was partially updated. So the room itself had been slightly updated but the bathroom was not. What we learned is that some of the rooms at the hotel also have new bathrooms. They were unable to change my room to a newer bathroom even with Ambassador Elite status (highest offered on Marriott). The bathroom wasn’t “horrible” it just wasn’t updated and made one of the more expensive hotels feel not as nice. Second we didn’t love the location. It was a major tourist hotel connected to a very busy mall - meaning a lot of foot traffic and actual traffic. It felt like a major tourist center which we just don’t typically love. We went quite a number of places in Seoul and just found the traffic from this particular hotel to be very congested and made it harder and longer for us to get around. The hotel staff was very friendly and gave nice recommendations to restaurants, a hair spa, and a color wheel analysis. So we liked the concierge. The Executive Lounge was nice but fairly crowded each time we went. They had daily breakfast and happy hour with the same menu daily. It was nice and offered a few nice options to relax and reset before moving on to our next activities. Overall the stay was fine. I don’t think I would have quite flagged this hotel as a 5 star though compared to other properties we have stayed both with Marriott and in general.
