Just completed 4 more stays at the Seoul Grand Hilton in the last 2 weeks. Once again, the staff there was excellent and provided amazing service. I just wished I could spend more time at the hotel but was way too busy running around town taking care of business this time. I noticed they now have a conference room dedicated as a children's playroom which has 4 XBOX machines with a bunch of games and alot of other toys with an attendent on duty the whole time that it is open. I found this out when my cousin stopped by with his 4 year old who didn't want to leave. During one of my stays, the hotel was hosting the summit between North and South Korea and the place was crawling with security. Last month, the Argentinian soccer team was on my floor and there was a bunch of security in front of my monster suite that looked at us funny everytime we stepped out of the elevator to get to our room. They were hanging out in front of our door. I am usually dressed like a bum so I think they were surprised that my wife and I were staying in a suite that had a east and west wing. They only looked at us funny the first time. After that, they quickly moved out of the way when we approached our room and greeted us. They were not hotel security as far as I could tell. Enough about hotel seccurity. If you get a chance to stay here, I highly recommend it.
