I'd like to see the sights, get a bit of the culture, do some shopping, relax. Good restaurants and artsy stuff (museums etc.) aren't considerations as I'm not interested in either.
I was thinking three nights at the Park and two at the Grand but I've really got no idea.
In addition to what lagunas2k said, if you just want regular dining the PH is across the street from Coex mall, which has lots of lower and mid-scale places to eat. The mall has lots of stores, including huge department stores, but isn't upscale; it's mid-level.
Last summer, I stayed 6 nights. The Park Hyatt is also one of my favorite hotels. I liked it enough to consider it this summer, even though I needed to meet people almost completely opposite on subway line 2. I've also read nice things about the GH, but I think the PH would work well for you.
