to & from

I flew here from Hong Kong which was a breeze and back to SFO non-stop 10 hours. Traffic can be a challenge in Seoul so give yourself extra time to get into town and if possible, avoid rush hour.

Where to Stay

We stayed at the Westin which was central and had all of the necessary amenities. There is a Four Seasons available and The Shilla Seoul was highly recommended.
