Value for the price”

I had never been to the Walker Vista before so it was the first time. My wife and I had wanted to go to an outdoor pool hotel but unfortunately it wasn't open until June 22nd which was a let down when we first arrived. Still the manager did her best to make us feel better about our stay by giving us an upgrade which was much appreciated. Even without the use of the outdoor pool I feel this hotel has a lot to offer such as one of the best hotel gym's that I've been in within Seoul. The indoor pool was bright and has an outdoor sunbathing patio which I thought was a great extra to cool off as it gets a bit humid in there. The hotel was extremely clean, even the TV remote has a plastic cover that is replaced with every guest. This hotel also has a unique outside garden patio area to sit that has foot sauna's and hammock to watch the stars at night. I believe that this hotel holds one of the best value for money in Seoul especially in the summer months.

Great service and awesome view”

Check in was a breeze as the staff guide you along from the moment you step into the hotel. Everything you would expect from a W hotel. The room was really spacious and they asked if I wanted to upgrade to have a better view of the Han River. I did and they arranged everything for me. The only downside is the location as it's on the edge of Seoul and everywhere is at least a 20 min cab ride away.

good”

fantastic good very good but... noisy, Bcus festival (pool party)

Would stay again.”

Even though it is out of the way it is easy to find...got a little confused with both hotels right next to each other but the staff was very helpful. We showed up for an event and since we checked in late they gave us a later check out time which was a very pleasant surprise. The room was clean and spacious, we could see out over the water and a soak in the tub was divine. The bed wasn't hard and uncomfortable like most places I've stayed so I got a good nights rest. They have a nice bar area that had a cozy décor. All around pleasant stay.

Stylish hotel, staff attitude an issue”

Stayed one night and hotel was meeting expectations. Hotel shuttle to nearby subway stations worked well. Staff attitude in lobby bar is an issue, quite arrogant and not really interested in guest (despite high prices).

awesome!”

I spent a weekend with my sisters, it was girls' night! I checked in right after leaving office, so I missed so many daily necessaries. Using Whatever/Whenever (whatever the name is, it's overall services for guests) I could get a lot of help, quickly, and kindly. It's a little bit expensive, but not a total waste of money.

Really great”

We stayed at this hotel for one night and it was lovely. The Sunday brunch was amazing. The centre of Seoul is a bit away, however the shuttle bus service is prompt and frequent. The view we had was to the mountains, aided by the floor to ceiling windows. Service at the hotel was excellent with staff speaking English and Korean. My only quibble was a faulty loose plug socket meaning that I had to hold the plug in place with my finger to boil the kettle, maybe not so safe. Also, the room could have done with some paint touch ups to make it really worth the money we paid. Having said that, the bed was massive and very comfortable and I would definitely return.

one of the best W hotel in the world”

being one of the most unique design hotel , it earns its reputation with the art installations and fun , trendy interior, i will recommend people with more open mind about design and life to experience this hotel, you will not find traditional hotel elements here, function wise this is a little small but the hotel right next to it has all the necessary programs and things you might need, overall this is a enjoyable stay!

Good Trendy Place, reliable W Brand”

The stay at W Seoul WalkerHill Hotel was fine. I didn't actually get a chance to sleep in the room as I was too busy losing money in the casino. The room was fine, exactly what you'd expect out of a W hotel. Not cheap at all so you kinda expect the place to be great.

hip and stylish interior, artsy installations”

the hotel is overall a good hotel, although small in size but it serves its purpose as a design botique hotel, however, i think the restaurants can offer more and the spaces are perfect for hosting events and shows.

service is excellent.”

Due to their delay on my check-in (almost got 45minutes) they upgrade my room to waterview on the top floor ever i do ask anything. staff is helpful on everything. 5 stars service. the view is excellent (waterview), the hotel provide free shuttle bus to subway (every 10 mins), even the location is a bit far away from subway, it's still convinence for me to travel around.

Beautiful property on the edge of Seoul”

This is one of the best maintained and most well run luxury properties at which I’ve stayed. It is a good ways from the center of Seoul, but if you are OK with that I highly recommend it!

Fabulous hotel but not so convenience”

Comfortable area with nice design and great customer services, only the location is not convenience to go but this is why the hotel is very comfortable.

Very Good. I'm very Satisfied ! Good Food Good Loc”

Very Good. I'm very Satisfied ! Good Food Good Location Good Services !!!! I'm very pleased !

Chic design hotel but far away from city”

I enjoyed the stay but may not stay here again as it is not closed to other places in Seoul

very nice hotel”

Disappointing - find somewhere else to stay”

So many missed opportunities. Concierge (??) more interested in Facebook than helping paying guests - didn't suggest the Cathedral for Christmas Eve service, didn't recommend Seoul's #1 shopping district, and didn't help find somewhere for dinner on Christmas day (Hotel had left no capacity at any of their restaurants for in-house guests). Had to call at 6pm for our room to be serviced (hadn't been done and probably wouldn't have been if we hadn't called) - and then they didn't even bother changing the sheets, cleaning the mirror or leaving a full set of new towels. Not what you expect from a five star hotel (and we were there for 5 nights). Overall, very disappointing. We've stayed at W Hotels in Hong Kong and Taiwan - but after this experience will think twice before using this brand. Perhaps more focus on customer service and less on trying to be cool and hip. If you're going to Korea look at other options - perhaps something more central. The W Hotel is not particularly convenient, and you'll end up spending a lot of time and money on taxi's.

No tattoos”

Tattoos are not allowed in the pool. Nowhere did their website mention this prejudice, no one at the check in counter mentioned it, even though they were clearly visible upon check in, and they removed my comments on their facebook page about. I was left to be refused pool access after unpacking and paying. If I had known in advance, I would have never supported this hotel. The staff upgraded me and did their best, but I refuse to ever go back. They claimed it was Korean culture, but I have lived and worked in Korea for 5 years and hav never been rejected anywhere else. What kind of place refuses to even mention their rules unless they know they are discriminating?

Mixed feeling for wrong room type first night”

We'd booked Wonderful Hangang Twin room with River View (same pic as the Studio Suite) via Agoda and then it turned out to be a regular twin bedroom the first night. Receptionist explained that rooms were fully booked so we might change to the original room type the second day. We went to the front desk and they refused to change cause the type we booked was supposed to be a regular twin bedroom. They tried to liaise with Agoda but not turned out with a disappointed answer. But after all, W agreed to upgrade us with a reasonable additional surcharge. The Studio Suite is impressive and really enjoy the round-shaped designs all over the room. Thanks W for offering a nice discount as this is the engagement trip for us! Overall I satisfied the experience at W but disappointment towards the misleading pic on Agoda.

famous hotel in eastern seoul”

Actually, I couldn't stay in this hotel. Because I changed my itnerary suddnly. If i stay there, i presume it was wonerful.
