The Grand hotel was a Palace. And is Elegant in an exuberant Victorian style. The furnishings are all original and in superb condition. It is a treasure trove of valuable antiques. We had a memorable time especily being with our son Eduardo.

I booked the Suite at Grand Mercure Imperial Palace during my stay in Gangnam, and it was amazing. From the interior decoration to the our hotel room, everything was immaculate. All the staff were very friendly and professional, offering help whenever they can. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Gangnam, as the location was perfect. It was minutes way from subways and bus stops, which made it incredibly easy to travel around. If I'm ever back in Korea in Gangnam, I plan to stay at this place again!

Excellent hotel with great service minded staff

It’s a great stylish and luxurious hotel. The staff are very friendly, welcoming and attentive to your needs. The breakfast buffet is one of the most delicious I have tried so full marks for that too. I have only good things to say about this hotel.

Pretty underwhelmed

This was an overnight in Seoul on our way back to the states. It was Christmas time so the lobby was super decked out! Unfortunately the Suite we reserved was anything but. It did have 2 rooms but minimal furniture and decorations. The bed was a Queen (not King) and furnishings looked about 30 or 40 years old. I think there is a newer wing that might be nicer.

This hotel is definitely not a 4-star hotel. The hotel lobby is clean, but the moment you get off the elevator to your room after checking in, there is an unpleasant smell. The room also has an unpleasant smell. The air conditioner is so loud that it is difficult to sleep. I made a reservation for 2 nights and 3 days, but I checked out in the morning after 1 night.

I have been to many hotels, but this is the worst hotel I have ever been to. How did it become a 5 stars hotel?... I couldn’t sleep because of the horrible moldy smell in the room, so I called the front desk for change the room, but it was past midnight and no one answered the phone. Can this really happen in a hotel? The staff were generally friendly, but I can‘t understand how become a five stars hotel??? I don't want recommend for anyone.
