Nestled in the heart of Seoul’s diplomatic, business and financial districts, Somerset Palace Seoul sits beside the tranquil and picturesque Gyeongbok Palace.

It is located in an ideal spot for a leisurely stroll to the myriad of restaurants, shopping arcades and entertainment outlets along the nearby Insa-dong and Jongno area. Other parts of Seoul are easily accessible as well by hopping on the metros at Anguk, Jonggak and Gwanghwamun stations all within five-minute walks from the serviced residence.

Somerset Palace Seoul is more than just about the location. Spacious surroundings and a sophisticated ambience greet visitors upon their arrivals. Professionally trained staffs are at hand to fulfill every need of the visitors. Whether you are on a business trip or enjoying a holiday, Somerset offers a level of luxury and comfort that is unsurpassed in Seoul.

Somerset is especially designed with families in mind, knowing the importance of keeping a balance between work and family life.

Its luxurious, family-friendly apartments range in size from studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and penthouse. Each provides an enriching living environment for the busy executive and family with state-of-the-art communications and entertainment facilities.

Fully-equipped kitchens in many apartments let residents enjoy home cooking, while rooming living/dining areas make entertaining a breeze. Each residence is wired for high-speed broadband connectivity and includes a home office with writing desk. Fitness center, billiards room, sauna rooms, residents’ lounge and children’s playroom are also provided at the hotel.

Another notable attraction is the rooftop garden, which is filled with flowers, plants and fruit trees, placed on the 18th floor. The roof-garden is an example of a growing trend in “going green” and Somerset’s effort to fight global warming. The flowers and plants have been selected and nurtured in “stages” so there is a continual change in color throughout the year.

Through its signature “Heartware” service, which recognizes each guest’s individuality and ensures that their stay will be remembered with pleasure, Somerset makes sure of the guests’ comfortable and seamless transition to the new environment. Somerset Serviced Residence is managed by The Ascott Limited, a member of CapitaLand. It is the largest global serviced residence owner-operator in Asia Pacific, Europe and the Gulf region managing the Ascott, Citadines and Somerset brands in over 70 cities across more than 20 countries.

From among these three brands, Somerset Serviced Residence was especially conceived for executives and their families who seek a harmonious balance between work and family life.

Somerset Serviced Residence supports this important work-life balance by providing a warm and stylish home with recreational facilities, lifestyle activities and business support services.
