[2025 Seoul Hotels] Travel Guide for Grand Mercure Imperial Palace Seoul Gangnam (Updated Aug)

🏨Name: Mercure Ambassador Seoul Gangnam Sodowe ☆ Hotel exterior and lobby I was amazed by the magnificent exterior of the hotel as soon as I arrived. Entering the lobby, I felt like I was stepping into a palace🏰. The high ceiling is adorned with a luxurious crystal chandelier, and when the lights are on, the entire lobby is bathed in a golden glow. The floor is made of polished marble, and the walls are decorated with exquisite artworks, complemented by classical-style furniture🛋️, exuding a sense of luxury. ☆ Spacious and bright rooms The rooms are exquisitely decorated. The bed🛏️ is soft and comfortable, with intricately carved headboards and high-quality bedding that feels great to the touch. The furniture in the room is mostly made of wood, with clear textures and a high-quality feel, exuding a noble aura. The windows are large, and when you open the curtains, you can enjoy the bustling street view of Gangnam, Seoul🏙. The bathroom is also very spacious, with a marble vanity, golden faucets and showerheads, and a large bathtub, allowing you to fully enjoy the luxurious atmosphere while taking a bath🛀🏻. ☆ The hotel's restaurant is a food paradise The breakfast offers a wide variety of dishes from around the world, from exquisite French desserts to traditional Korean cuisine🥙. The restaurant's decor is also very sophisticated, with fresh flowers and exquisite tableware on the tables. The staff is attentive and always ready to meet the guests' needs, providing an excellent dining experience👍🏻

This is a place I’ve been wanting to visit since I first started exploring afternoon tea spots in Korea. Finally, it’s my turn to check it out. I kept postponing my visit as I revisited places that change their seasonal offerings and explored newly opened spots. But now, I’ve finally made it here. The positive reviews from friends on Instagram also motivated me to visit this time. The interior design truly lives up to the name 'Imperial Palace,' with a clear concept of a regal palace. You can even spot works of video art by Nam June Paik. The lighting and decorations are perfectly matched, and it’s currently adorned with Christmas decorations. As a solo visitor, I was able to enjoy a cup of coffee and a cup of tea. There are savory options available, so I added a glass of cava to my order. The egg tart was sweet and delightful. The scones were delicious, especially with the addition of clotted cream. The afternoon tea set is reasonably priced and quite satisfactory. The antique ambiance might be a matter of personal preference, but overall, it was a pleasant experience. Thank you.

Stayed here in November, loved the Christmas decorations in the lobby. Saw many people coming to take photos. Locations is not the best for Gangnam — must take train/bus to go to shopping districts.

Imperial Palace is a classic European-style hotel in Gangnam, known for its vintage palace-inspired design. The pool continues this retro aesthetic, offering a refined and elegant atmosphere rather than a modern infinity pool. It features high ceilings, well-maintained facilities, a sunbathing area, and a steam room. The overall vibe is understated and sophisticated, making it ideal for middle-aged business travelers or those who prefer traditional styles. The hotel's art pieces and marble designs add a European charm, setting it apart from minimalist pools. If you're looking for a pool experience that combines classic elegance with a sense of history, Imperial Palace is a unique choice.

Standing outside the Blue House, gazing at the distant green tiles under Mount Bukaksan, I feel the intertwining of history and modernity. Although unable to enter the main building, the solemnity and tranquil power of the presidential residence can still be felt. The ginkgo trees in the garden shed their golden leaves like gentle rain, as if narrating the tenderness of time. The surrounding scenery is serene and peaceful, like a silent witness to history, quietly guarding this land. At night, I return to the Gangnam Palace Hotel, where the grand lobby exudes magnificence. The room is comfortable and elegant, a perfect blend of classical and modern styles.

#JapanFlightEvent Address: Grand Mercure Imperial Palace Hotel Seoul Gangnam Cafe Del Mar Atmosphere/Facilities: Warm Key Points: Trees decorated according to the season Average Price Per Person: 20.0 Rating: 4 points because one staff member's service was not very good. Except for that staff member, everyone was friendly and nice. It's good for taking pictures, but I don't think you should expect the taste of coffee or desserts. Just take pictures and understand that it's a seat fee. Recommended at least once

Today, I brought you a hotel in Seoul, no, a hotel in Korea that has the best Christmas atmosphere. I will focus on introducing the hotel cafe. Please pay attention and make sure to visit. ❄️ The perfect trio of antique, old-fashioned, and classy The most modern Seoul. Gangnam. However, this hotel in the Gangnam area. When you enter, a completely different world unfolds. This sensibility that seems to have been brought straight from a European palace. You will definitely fall for it. Antique European atmosphere starting with dark wood interior. An elegant and magnificent giant chandelier. Beautiful lighting with a warm sensibility. It is not crude. It is a perfect sensibility. Isn't this the real 'boutique hotel'? 📍Imperial Palace Seoul 'Cafe Del Mar' #Ho-kang-seu

It would be hard to find a hotel with this kind of boutique sensibility among residence-type rooms. 'Residence' rooms are the best type of rooms for long-term stays, with simple cooking and tableware. It would be good to describe them as condo resorts within hotels. Imperial Palace Residence rooms with both convenience and sensibility. They feel neat and luxurious, but it would be greedy to want the highest level of luxury. Since they are newly opened rooms, they have a new hotel feel that makes the hotel's 30-year history seem meaningless. 📍Imperial Palace Seoul Gangnam #Ho-kang-seu

It is harsh to completely erase all the traces of the past, the years that have permeated the space. While the food and beverage establishments and guest rooms have brought in a modern feel, the auxiliary facilities have kept their old identity intact. Old sensibility. Rather, it is more hip. The swimming pool and gym, it feels like many middle-aged and older customers with a lot of assets will use it. It feels somehow formal and classy. The spacious gym equipment is also great, and the swimming pool in particular is full of an old feeling. If you like saunas, you must visit the hotel sauna. Even the sauna feels classy. The number of people, the size, and the healing feeling are all the more comforting. 📍Imperial Palace Seoul Gangnam #Ho-kang-seu
