Keep in mind that in Seoul, English is not widely spoken. Basic, helpful Korean words to know are annyeonghaseyo (an-yoo-uh-seyo – hello), annyeonghi gaseyo (an-yoo-nee gaseyo – goodbye), gamsahabnida (khun-sanga – thank you) and dangsin-eun yeong-eoleul hal su issnayo (honch-nin yomo-dinuh swee-niyo – do you speak English?). In Seoul, cars travel on the right-hand side, currency is the South Korean Won and the drinking age is 19 years old. Seoul accommodations are some of Eastern Asia’s best. Before we get to Seoul accommodations, let’s take a look at some more background information on the area to help you along the way.

Humans have inhabited the Seoul-area for an estimated 40,000 years. Umjip, pit-houses with lowered floors, housed the area’s people around 4,000 BC. Stone Age materials have been discovered at Amsa-dong Neolithic Site. Following the 108 BC Wiman Joseon dynasty collapse, Chinese Warring State refugees fled to the Han River basin. These Chinese refugees brought with them culture and technology that would influence the Seoul-area during the Iron Age. After the refugees’ arrival, the region’s Jin confederacy of statelets having been disintegrated, dozens of new statelets emerged, which all competed for influence over the Han River basin. By the 2nd century AD, the region’s dominant local power became the kingdom of Baekje, with its capital located at Wiryeseong (modern-day Seoul area). In the summer of 553, Baekje ceded control of the region to the eastern kingdom of Silla. Early-on, the Han River likely was named Namcheon (Nam River). In 603, the Goguryeo dynasty (located near Pyongyang), allied with Silla, attacked Seoul’s Bukhansanseong fortress and won. The following year, Silla abolished Namcheon Province, which had been established in 568 by Silla’s 24th monarch, Jinheung Taewang. Silla subsequently reestablished Bukhansan Province, thus strengthening the Kingdom’s northern border. Unified Silla was succeeded by the Korean state of Goryeo in the 11th century, and a summer palace was built in modern-day Seoul. Referred to as the “Southern Capital”, Seoul started to become a larger settlement around this time. Founding father of the 505-year Joseon dynasty, Yi Seong-gye chose Seoul as Korea’s planned capital sometime around 1392, the year when Yi Seong-gye enthroned himself at then-capital, old Goryeo. Yi Seong-gye changed the Kingdom’s name from Goryeo to Joseon in 1393. Hanyang (Seoul) officially was chosen as Joseon’s new capital in September 1394. An embodiment of Korean Confucianism, the new capital city Hanyang started being built in October 1394. Gyeongbokgung (palace) and Seoul City Wall were two of Hanyang’s major early developments. Governed by the national agency Hanseongbu, Hanyang’s two main sections were partitioned into Seong-jung (inside the Fortress Wall ) and Seongjeosimni (around the Fortress Wall). Hanyang city’s downtown area became known as Doseong-an, or more popularly Sadaemun-an, meaning ‘areas inside of the Four Great Gates’. Not until the late-19th century did Seoul open its gates to foreigners. Modernization thus ensued, and Gyeongbokgung became East Asia’s first palace to introduce electricity, while electrical street lights were implemented shortly thereafter. In 1897, the Korean Empire was proclaimed by the monarch Gojong. Temporarily called Hwangseong, Seoul engaged in trade with foreign countries such as France and the United States. Seoul Electric Company, Seoul Electric Trolley Company and Seoul Fresh Spring Water Company were examples of joint Korean–US owned enterprises. The Japan-Korea Treaty of 1910 resulted in the annexation of the Korean Empire by the Empire of Japan, and Hwangseong’s renaming to Gyeongseong. Under Japanese colonial rule, Gyeongseong’s city walls were removed, roads were paved and Western-style buildings were built. During the Second Sino-Japanese War, Yeongdeungpo District was annexed into Gyeongseong in order to serve as a steel and metalworking industrial complex. Following World War II, Gyeongseong was liberated by US forces. The American military assumed control of what would become known as Seoul in 1945, with the city becoming a municipal corporation. Soviet-Chinese-backed North Korean forces and American-backed South Korean forces swapped control of Seoul four times during the Korean War. Seoul’s extensive Korean War damages resulted in South Korea’s capital being relocated to Busan for a short period. The Seoul metropolitan area’s population reached around 1.5 million by 1955. During the late-1960s, Hannam Bridge and Gyeongbu Expressway were constructed. North Korea had claimed Seoul as its de jure capital until 1972. Seoul hosted the 1986 Asian Games and 1988 Summer Olympics, and was a 2002 FIFA World Cup venue.

Home to around 9.5 million inhabitants, Seoul is known officially as Seoul Special Metropolitan City, with over 26 million people inhabiting the overall metropolitan area. US citizens comprise around 7.5% of Seoul’s population. The word Seoul means “capital city”. Around 16,360 high-rise buildings, to include 126 skyscrapers, illuminate the Seoul skyline. At 1,821 feet tall, Lotte World Tower is the city’s tallest building. Not only a modern metropolis, Seoul is home to five UNESCO Heritage sites: Changdeok Palace (15th century Joseon Dynasty palace), Hwaseong Fortress (Joseon dynasty burial fortress est. 1796)), Jongmyo Shrine (Joseon dynasty royals Confucian shrine), Namhansanseong (fortress / military stronghold) and Royal Tombs of the Joseon Dynasty (40 Joseon Dynasty tombs). Seoul typically ranks in the world’s top-five metropolitan economies, with a GDP at around $635 billion. In 2023, over 8 million foreign tourists visited the city. High temperatures hover around 85 degrees in August, and 35 degrees in January. Additional points on interest are Gangnam (affluent district / nightlife area), Sungnyemun (historic gate), National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul Museum of Art, Myeongdong Cathedral and Jamsil Baseball Stadium. Local foods include bibimbap (rice dish), bulgogi (“fire meat”), samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup), tteokbokki  (stir-fried rice cakes), hotteok (stuffed pancake) and odeng (fish cake). Seoul street foods can be found at places such as pojangmacha (street stalls) and bunsikjip (snack bars). A traditional Korean side dish, Kimchi (salted and fermented vegetables) is a South Korean staple. Popular Seoul drinks include soju (a sweet spirit), bokbunja ju (fruit wine), banana milk and various teas, while lager-style is the most popular beer. With some background information on the city, we’re ready for Seoul accommodations that are sure to inspire.
