Seoul Hotels with Rooftop Pools

"Lovely stay in Incheon — great value if you understand the location I stayed at this property in early April 2026 and overall had a really pleasant experience, but there’s one important thing future guests should know upfront: this is Incheon, not Seoul. More on that below. The apartment itself Small but exceptionally well-equipped. Everything you need is there — a proper kitchen, and importantly for me, a comfortable workspace with a real desk. I was working remotely on some days of the trip, and the desk setup made it genuinely productive, not just a tolerable improvisation. The bed was soft and comfortable. Cleanliness Impeccable. Floors were mopped and towels changed every single day, which I really appreciated. The apartment felt fresh throughout the stay. Location — pros The building is in a business district with easy metro access. There’s a beautiful park right nearby — in early April the trees were in full bloom, which was a magical bonus. Our windows looked out onto a bridge, which made for a lovely view. Location — things to know Don’t be misled by the proximity to Incheon Airport on the map. Getting into central Seoul takes 1.5–2 hours by metro, so plan your days accordingly. A taxi straight across the bridge is likely much faster if you’re in a hurry. If most of your trip is Seoul sightseeing, factor in significant commute time. If you’re working remotely, transiting through the airport, or specifically want a quieter base outside the city, the location is actually great. Noise There was some construction happening nearby, but the soundproofing is excellent — I genuinely didn’t notice it from inside the apartment. So Clean, comfortable, well-equipped apartments with great service and a beautiful park nearby. Perfect for a workation or an extended layover. Just go in with realistic expectations about the commute to Seoul proper"

"I recently stayed at Orakai Songdo Park Hotel and was very satisfied with my experience. First of all, I would like to highlight the excellent location of the hotel — it is close to the beautiful Central Park, with convenient access to public transport, as well as many cafés and shops within walking distance. The area is modern, quiet, and very pleasant for walking. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. I especially appreciated the comfortable bed and good soundproofing — it was truly easy to relax and rest. The view from the window over the city and the park made the stay even more enjoyable. The hotel staff were polite and professional, and all requests were handled quickly and efficiently. Check-in and check-out were smooth and well organized. I would also like to mention the breakfast — quite varied, with a good selection of fresh and tasty food. I also appreciated the availability of a swimming pool and other leisure facilities. Overall, the hotel left a very positive impression. It is a comfortable and reliable place to stay in Incheon, and I would be happy to return again."

"Pros: Located right at Exit 3 of KINTEX Station, making it super convenient for visiting Hyundai Motorstudio Goyang, the waterpark, and Aqua Planet Ilsan. The location is fantastic, surrounded by large commercial complexes and residential areas. Convenience stores, restaurants, cafes, bakeries, and medium-sized supermarkets are all very close by! The hotel is divided into an East Wing and a West Wing; I stayed in the East Wing this time. The service attitude was excellent, and the front desk was very responsive. However... It seems to fall short of a five-star hotel standard. I stayed with my child, and although the hotel's description welcomes children, there were absolutely no amenities for kids – no children's slippers, bathrobes, or even toothbrushes and toothpaste! Compared to many five-star hotels I've stayed at in Tokyo, the attention to detail here is lacking. There's a French pastry shop on the first floor, which closes at 6 PM. On the third floor, there's a gym and a sauna… The room view was decent, and the night view was also beautiful. The TV had YouTube, which kept my child entertained. There's no bathtub, but the shower had excellent water pressure – very comfortable! However, there's a strange feeling of stinginess – just one comb, one shower cap, a small box with cotton swabs, and a tiny bar of soap. That's it. Japanese five-star hotels are usually so generous with amenities; I don't want to compare, but it's hard not to ㅠㅠ. The desk and wardrobe in the room both had some damage and chipped paint. I actually had to switch from the first bathrobe to the second after showering because the first one was so old and thin; the second one was new and in good condition. It really highlights the difference when you compare them. If there were other five-star hotels nearby, I'd probably choose a different one next time. My overall stay felt more like a three-star experience, falling short of a five-star standard."

"I had a really pleasant stay at Hamilton Hotel in Seoul’s lively Itaewon neighbourhood. The location was excellent, right next to Itaewon Station and within walking distance of many restaurants, shops, and bars — perfect for exploring the city easily by foot or subway. The room was comfortable, clean, and spacious, with a cozy bed that made it easy to relax after a day of sightseeing. I especially appreciated how well-maintained the space felt — everything was tidy and modern, and the housekeeping team did a great job keeping things fresh. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with directions or recommendations for local eateries and attractions, which made my stay feel even more welcoming. Another highlight was the value for money. For its central location and quality service, I felt this hotel offered great overall value compared to other options in the area. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend Hamilton Hotel to anyone visiting Seoul — especially if you want to be right in the heart of the city’s nightlife and cultural scene"

"I specifically chose a hotel that had been renovated in recent years, and while it might not have all the latest tech of newer hotels, the overall experience was excellent! The afternoon tea in the lobby was a wonderful touch, and I was pleasantly surprised by the many antique European furniture pieces and porcelain displayed, which perfectly matched the design aesthetic. The gym was very spacious and even included a sauna and a swimming pool. Breakfast was also quite abundant!"

"I always stay here for business trips. It's very convenient, within walking distance of the subway station. They also have a public water dispenser, which is a must-have for Chinese people who like hot water. Now, the hotel even has a cash exchange machine. Everything is becoming more convenient, though the cleanliness in the corners still needs improvement."

"This is my second stay here, the first one was great! There's a very steep hill right in front of the hotel, but other than that, it's very convenient with a bus stop and subway station nearby. There are also plenty of convenience stores and restaurants within walking distance. The room was clean as well."

"The room itself isn't very big, but the location is great; it's convenient to get anywhere by taxi. The service was decent. There's a coffee shop right next to the lobby on the first floor, but the music there is quite loud. The air conditioning in the room was also a bit noisy. Overall, it's a good budget-friendly option."

"If you're going to KSPO Dome for a concert, this is a great choice! It's about a 30-minute walk to KSPO Dome, 20 minutes by subway, or 15 minutes by bus, so it's super convenient! If the weather's good, I highly recommend walking. You'll pass through about a third of Olympic Park, which has beautiful scenery, lush greenery, and lots of birds~ The hotel front desk doesn't speak Chinese, but their English is excellent, so communication was seamless, and they were incredibly polite! I stayed in a deluxe king room. Even with a 24-inch suitcase open on the floor, there was still plenty of room to move around. The bed is huge, easily comfortable for two people! The hotel also offers a paid breakfast option: a sandwich plus a coffee or juice. It's about a 10-minute walk to Jamsil Shopping World Mall and Lotte Duty-Free Shop, and also about 10 minutes to Seokchon Lake Park. You'll pass through a food street with many dining options along the way. All in all, it's pretty perfect (especially for K-pop fans), except that the bathroom doesn't have a distinct wet/dry separation."

"Thanks to Hotel Manager Daniel Lee, we had a very pleasant stay. The hotel's service was excellent and very friendly towards Chinese guests. They were understanding and respectful during checkout, never rushing us and patiently waiting. My girlfriend takes a long time to do her makeup, and many hotels in Seoul would rush us to check out, but the Hilton's attitude was truly wonderful. I'm also grateful for the warm assistance from the hotel manager. We will definitely stay here again next time."
