Hotel Review posted by giles lorick, United States of America in March 2003

The Grand Inter-Continental is the pricier of the two Inter-Continental hotels in Kangnam. This proud hotel is classical in taste and clientel, with dark rusty coloured granite in the soothing public areas and the memorably civilised atrium lobby restaurant. The bright rooms are very Korean in style and fitting. Little sliding shutters, lots of pointy square shapes, sharp angles and mature furnishings complement the relaxing and spacious rooms. The hotel facilities are excellent and well maintained, the staff are attentive but perhaps a little snobby. The Grand Intercontinental focuses on the refined guest that doesn't care much about the bill, and probably doesn't have to pay it out of their own pocket - value for money is not the reason to stay here. Instead the top location bang in the middle of Seoul's prime financial district and the touch of class are the pulling points.

  3/5  Posted by rob, United Kingdom in October 2008
"First impression of the hotel was ruined by a rude check in attendant who was most unhelpful, however after that, the stay was fairly pleasant. It is obvious that this hotel is heavily used by businessman and caters to that. However the room was good and fairly spacious. Facilities were good and a conveniant location (especially for shopping). Improve attitude and the hotle may be worth the 5 star price. "

"Expensive for what they deliver. Ammenities are said to be the best available in Seoul. They may have been out of stock. I had to change my room since the first one I was allocated to was old, smelly low floor! Great staffat the lounge and at the bar. Front office self sufficient. Not my favorite pick."

"I just want to tell you the matress was too hard. you should make possible a choice betwen two of them."

  5/5  Posted by Stan Yuek, United States in May 2006
"Whats not to like about this place Location is best! I stayed in the club class room earlier this year and it was nice! Bathrooms were large well apointed service is excellent with good choice of restaurants and bars try (Grand Havana) if you like cigars and I do. With direct connection to underground mall its full of activities."

"I visited Seoul for the first time in April 2004, and I have to admit, anyone wishing to experience First Class, World Class service, will be doing themselves a huge service by staying here! I have nothing but good things to say about all aspects of my stay in this First Class Establishment. I will be returning to South Korea in the next 12 months, and I will definitely be staying in this fine establishment once again. Asians definitely know how to take care of Business travellers.
