We are currently staying at the Four Seasons Seoul, and unfortunately, our experience so far has been very underwhelming — especially when it comes to customer service.||We intentionally switched from the Park Hyatt Seoul to the Four Seasons, expecting a similar if not elevated level of hospitality given the Four Seasons brand. In hindsight, that was a mistake. The service here has consistently fallen short in ways we did not expect from a property of this caliber.||One of the most noticeable issues is the lack of warmth from the staff. It’s a small detail, but telling: rarely does anyone greet you first. Both my husband and I have had to initiate hellos or acknowledgments with staff throughout the hotel, whether we needed assistance or not — something we never experienced at the Park Hyatt, where hospitality felt genuine and proactive any time of the day.||More concerning, however, were the moments where we actively needed help. One night, my husband needed to hail a cab late in the evening, and not only did the staff fail to offer help, they showed clear attitude when asked directly. For a luxury hotel, this is unacceptable.||Just last night, our family of five (including three young children) was getting out of a car with several bags — not a single staff member stepped in to offer assistance. It honestly felt like our presence was a burden. That sense — that we’re somehow inconveniencing the staff by simply being guests — has been a recurring theme during our stay.||We came here with high expectations, thinking we’d be treated with the level of service Four Seasons is known for worldwide. Unfortunately, it has been quite the opposite. Had we known this would be the experience, we would not have booked such a long stay here. It’s a shame, and frankly quite disappointing, to feel this way while still staying at the property.||We never leave reviews, but this stay warranted one. We hope management seriously considers how far this property is falling short compared to not just global standards, but even other luxury hotels in Seoul.
