The Westin Chosun was first opened in 1914 and is located in the heart of Seoul. It was recently refurbished and is a five-star hotel. Right next to the building is the Ninth Gate and the restaurant of the same name overlooks the beautiful building.
The rooms are excellent and big. A nice mix of west and east. The beds are soft and plump. The furniture is simple but elegant, nice wooden pieces that are easy on the eyes. The bathroom is marble and well-done with a complete supply of toilet supplies. There are a nice supply of television channels and movies as well as Internet access and a fax machine. The art hanging on the walls is modern and livens up the room. Everything in the room is comfortable and inviting.
The lobby is elegant and inviting. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The concierge will help you in any manner she can. She set up reservations at a great Italian restaurant. Everyone is working hard to make your stay wonderful.
There are plenty of restaurants to choose from. There are Korean, Japanese, Western, Chinese, Italian, and French restaurants all through the building. The breakfast buffet is wonderful and good. The Compass Rose is a great place to take in some live jazz and a drink. They have a great wine selection also.
Everything at the Westin Chosun was great and I would stay there again and again.
