Would appreciate advices on whether I should stay at the Andaz or move over to the Grand Hyatt which is on the other side of the river and closer to Seoul Station since we will also be taking a short trip to Busan on the Bullet Train.

I would also appreciate advices on getting to either hotel from Incheon Airport as Uber is not really a good option in Seoul (or so I was told). I know that there is an express train from Incheon to Seoul Station and then I could take a taxi? How much would the taxi cost?
My vote would always go to Andaz Seoul for the public transit, location and newer hardware. GH was a good Cat 1-4 cert redemption but a terrible points redemption. They don’t give anything beyond a view upgrade and your earned GC usage.
My advice would be to stay at Andaz Seoul and use Subway Line 3 (or taxi) and take an SRT bullet train from Suseo station to Busan.
