Following an 18-month facelift, The Ambassador Seoul – A Pullman Hotel has reopened on 27 January 2022, offering 269 keys, event spaces and a new wellness space.

Located a one-and–a-half hour's drive from Incheon International Airport and 50 minutes from Gimpo International Airport, the hotel also offers quick access to Seoul Station (10 minutes by taxi), the central business districts and Gangnam.

Planners can pick from five venues, including a 760 sqm grand ballroom hosting up to 400 pax, with the option to turn the Keumsoo room into a cooking studio; and the 200 sqm Namsan room on the 19th floor which includes use of the hotel's urban sky rooftop.

Renovation highlights span six restaurants and bars, as well as a wellness centre spread across two floors. It offers both indoor and outdoor pools, a golf driving range, a studio for fitness, yoga and Pilates, and professional trainers who can tailor training programmes for hotel guests.

Six restaurants and bars have also been refurbished, including 'The King's, the first hotel buffet in Korea, and '1955 Groceria', a gourmet grocery dining concept.

Long-stay guests can also consider the 49 serviced residences on top of 269 guest rooms.

First opened in 1995 under the name 'Geumsujang', the hotel is now managed by Pullman, an Accor brand. The Ambassador Seoul – A Pullman Hotel's opening joins a Pullman network of more than 140+ hotels and resorts worldwide.
