Likedit was wonderful! I was disappointed that mimosa wasn't part of the breakfast offer. :(
Dislikedlobby lounge and 11th floor cocktail services were a bit slow.

JW Marriott Dongdaemun Square Seoul reviews
LikedI really liked the location, the wonderful staff and amazing breakfast .
DislikedI made the reservation for 3 people though the room was set up only for 2 people and there was no room to bring in another bed so had to downgrade us to another room in order accommodate 3 people and but no credit was giving to us!
“Clean, well appointed, centrally located luxury hotel.”
LikedPerfectly maintained. Jazz bar. Stunning pool and great exercise facilities.
DislikedHad to discover many of the local, walkable attractions by sheer luck. No local map provided with suggestions for coffee, desserts, restaurants, etc. Concierges struggled a bit.
