OFF-SITE ACTIVITIES Within a 10-minute walk of the Hotel

Gyeongbokgung Palace Gyeongbokgung Palace, constructed in 1395, was home to King Taejo (Yi Seonggye) of the Joseon Dynasty. It was also the heart of Hanyang, which is Seoul today. The expansive palace grounds and its architecture shed light on authentic Korean history and culture. Arguably one of Korea’s most famous palaces, Gyeongbokgung Palace is viewable from select rooms in Four Seasons Hotel Seoul and is located near the Blue House, the President’s residence. Within a 10-minute drive of the Hotel

Changdeokgung Palace Established in 1405, the Changdeokgung Palace is another remarkably restored and preserved attraction that shows a glimpse into the Joseon Dynasty. Changdeokgung reflects Korean harmonization with nature (its buildings were carefully framed into the landscape), compared to the more contemporary Gyeongbokgung Palace. Within a 15-minute drive of the Hotel

National Museum of Korea The National Museum of Korea showcases thousands of years’ worth of history, including a gold crown from the Three Kingdoms Period, paintings from the Joseon Dynasty and photos from contemporary Korean artists. Within a 12-minute drive of the Hotel

N Seoul Tower Observatory Take in the true size and grandeur of Seoul by seeing it from above. Arguably the most popular attraction of the lush Namsan Park is the N Seoul Tower, which offers observation platforms that tower over the park and Seoul. At night, N Seoul Tower transforms into a light-up piece of art. Within a 25-minute drive of the Hotel

TAILORED MENUS Our expert culinary staff creates menus that fit your event's purpose, the season and your food preferences.

Water Sports on Han River Take a short car ride to Han (Hangang) River, where you can jet ski, water ski, wake board, kayak and more on the water, all while taking in the views of the Seoul cityscape. Within a 35-minute drive of the Hotel

Hiking at Bukhansan National Park Despite the booming metropolitan setting nearby, the tranquil Bukhansan National Park is easily accessible from the Hotel thanks to the city’s road system. The park is home to Bukhansan Mountain and Dobongsan Mountain, with many gorges, streams and hiking trails in between. Within a 10-minute walk of the Hotel

Ice Skating at Seoul Plaza Located by Seoul City Hall, Seoul Plaza hosts an array of events, such as concerts in the warmer months, then transforms into an outdoor ice skating rink in the winter. Skaters of all levels are welcome, and skate rentals are offered.

KIOKU Esteemed Japanese Chef Sawada Kazumi, previously of Tokyo’s Michelinstarred Banreki Ryukodo and most recently of Kumoi in Guangzhou, heads up the kitchen at Kioku, which features a high-energy Tokyo-style sushi bar overlooking the hip and cool main dining area, where in-the-know diners linger over elegantly prepared Kyoto-style small plates.

BAR BOCCALINO Sidle up to Bar Boccalino with a shrug of the shoulders and a “ciao” on the lips and you might as well be in Milan – all that’s missing is the Vespa parked on the curb. Bar Boccalino is a dramatic, airy space where the old-meets-new wine, spirits and aperitivo selections perfectly complement the bar’s singular ambience, making this Seoul’s best choice for unforgettable nights on the town.

CHARLES H. Legendary bon vivant Charles H. Baker, an American who drank and ate his way around the world during the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s, lends his name to Seoul’s most unique cocktail bar. Exotic, glamorous and steeped in the romance of world travel, Charles H. is housed in an intricate subterranean space, giving it the feel of an American speakeasy. Cocktail connoisseurs and nightlife mavens alike come here to sample the concoctions of skilled barmen, who tap into the lore of Baker’s writings to create classic and contemporary libations, often with a distinct Asian flavour.
