I love this hotel and look forward to staying here when my work travel brings me to South Korea. The rooms are beautiful and clean; the staff is professional and friendly; the food is high quality and prepared very well; the views from the lobby on the 24th floor are terrific; and of course in this post-Psy era there is something to being in the Gangnam neighborhood.

The gym on the 23rd floor has a swimming pool, some cardo machines, and a reasonably good free weight selection for a hotel. e.g. there is a Smith machine for those of you who want to do squats or spotted bench presses. There is a bench. And, you can use the bar from the bench to do dead lifts. There are lots of dumbbells and a few kettlebells. You can get a good workout in here.

This year I stayed here on my birthday and was greeted with chocolates, macaroons, and some cookies. It was a nice touch.
