I asked my wife and she told me to go with the better hotel. I'm tempted to go with the W. Which one would you choose?
The W hotel is near the shopping district of Seoul. The Westin is near the many palaces and touristic sights of Seoul. Which area do you prefer?

Personally I prefer the Westin and it's locale. The rooms were older but nice and I dislike loft style rooms like the W (no bathroom privacy). And the club lounge and breakfast for Plats is fantastic at the Westin.
