So rich!
Jelly.

Get a hotel north of the river.
Nothing much south of the river.

Sorry but I have no idea which hotels are north or south of the river :s11:

I think $220/night is a very good price for either of the hotels, so why not? :o

Hi folks,

I have a choice of Ritz Carlton Seoul, Conrad Seoul, Lotte Downtown Seoul and Grand Hyatt Seoul for my upcoming trip in Apr 2015 (cherry blossom season). Pricing roughly the same ~$220 SGD/night. Which hotel would you guys recommend? We would like to see the cherry blossoms as well as take in some shopping and eating.

Thanks!

Look at the locations of the hotels on a map.

Most of the attractions are north of the river.

Could you kindly post the link for the Shangri la BKK booking here?

I don't mean to be rude but having frequent glitches on hotel booking websites don't seem very credible. One off, I can believe but multiple glitches that coincide with your travel plans? Highly dubious won't you say? To that point, you mentioned SQ offered flights to HK @ $198 nett last year in another thread but I have had a casual chat with someone in SQ's revenue management and they don't seem to recall any sub $200 fares last year.

Please don't take this the wrong way. I am just voicing my doubts and am genuinely happy for you if you really managed to snag those great deals :)

icic... I think I think I reply different posting mixed up .
The 197 was for Bangkok . HK cheapest is abt 270+ coz the tax itself is more than 197 already :)
