Seoul Hotels with Private Pools

"The hotel was about a 10-minute walk from Sinnonhyeon Station (the back streets are flatter than the main road, so I recommend that route!). It was clean and quiet, so I'd love to stay again. The front desk staff were also very kind and even upgraded my room and allowed for early check-in, as it happened to be available at the time! (This isn't guaranteed, it's all about timing). It was also very helpful that they held my luggage before check-in and after check-out. Thank you!"

"Overall, I'm satisfied with the hotel. The location is great, and I appreciated the free parking even though it's in Seocho-dong. Just a heads-up, check-in time is at 3 PM, so you might have to wait a bit. I paid an extra 10,000 KRW for early check-in, which I thought was a bit much, but I don't regret it since I was happy with the facilities and cleanliness."

"I initially thought the room decor was a bit old-fashioned, but after staying for a few days, I found it to be very warm and the cleaning was meticulous. It was quiet at night, and there was hardly any noise from the hallway. The self-service front desk wasn't very convenient; sometimes there was someone there, but when I had an issue with my room that day, I had to call customer service. Eventually, the owner arrived and resolved the problem with a very good attitude. There are also plenty of dining options nearby, so you definitely won't go hungry returning in the evening, and it's very close to Lotte!"

"AC Hotel Seoul Gangnam, a Marriott gem – my top pick for Seoul! Choosing this hotel for my Seoul trip was definitely the right decision! The AC Hotel Seoul Gangnam, part of the Marriott family, boasts an unbeatable location right in the heart of Gangnam. It’s just a 1-minute walk to Exit 4 of Yeoksam Station (Subway Line 2), making it super convenient to explore. Whether you’re heading to COEX Mall for some shopping or checking out Garosu-gil in Sinsa-dong, it's all easily accessible. Plus, the bustling Gangnam commercial district is just a 15-minute walk away. The hotel lives up to Marriott's consistently high standards. The rooms are spotless and tidy, and the bedding is wonderfully soft and comfortable. I particularly appreciated the thoughtful details like the wireless charger next to the bed and the multi-country outlet by the desk. The 24-hour front desk staff are warm, professional, and always quick to assist with any request. The hotel also features a fitness center and a sauna, perfect for unwinding after a long day of travel. What truly surprised me was the incredible variety of dining options nearby! There's a GS25 convenience store right across the street, and within a 300-meter walk, you’ll find all sorts of restaurants, from sashimi spots to gamja-tang (pork bone soup) eateries and Korean set meal places. You don’t have to go out of your way to enjoy authentic local cuisine. As a Marriott Bonvoy member, I also enjoyed exclusive benefits, making the overall value for money exceptional. I’ll definitely be staying here again on my next trip to Seoul! Would you like me to add details about the hotel breakfast experience or specific travel times to attractions?"

"It is located in a party district, which is cool. But the hotel itself is very expensive for what you get, especially considering the location far from the city center. It‘s alright if only privacy and an own bath room are needed."

"I stayed here on a solo trip. The hotel is very close to the subway station, making it super convenient for getting around. The room was clean and very comfortable. Personally, I found the memory foam pillow incredibly easy to sleep on! The only minor thing is that the surrounding area is a bit of a love hotel district, but if that doesn't bother you, it's a very good value-for-money hotel. The memory foam pillow was incredibly comfortable."

"I stayed on the Pent Suite floor. First off, the reception staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, explaining everything in great detail. The room itself was spacious and excellent. My only minor gripes were the lack of power outlets near the bed and the loose indirect lighting glass in the living room, which seemed to need repair. Also, I wanted to open the windows in the pool area and bathroom, but there were no screens, so I couldn't for fear of insects coming in. That was a bit disappointing too. The late-night noodle service, perhaps because it's summer, came with cold broth that was frozen solid, making the noodles stiff and hard to eat. Given how good the hotel's facilities are and how well the air conditioning works, it might be worth considering serving hot noodles even in summer. The gym and sauna were absolutely superb. The robot café on the top floor had all coffee items sold out, so I couldn't get anything, but the space itself was clean and had a great atmosphere, making me think it would be lovely to enjoy a cup of coffee there on a cool day. This was a hotel with such great service that I'd love to visit again. I returned with fond memories of my stay. Thank you."
