1. Location & Check-in


📍 Location: 108 Yeouidaero, Yeongdeungpo-gu (영등포구), Seoul (서울)
📍 Check-in/Check-out: 3 PM / 11 AM
📍 Nearby Subway Stations: Yeouinaru Station (여의나루역) on Line 5, Yeouido Station (여의도역) on Lines 5 & 9
It's a clean and spacious lobby.
I arrived right at the check-in time of 3 PM.
As it's one of Yeouido's top hotels, there were many people checking in.
However, I didn't wait long, and the staff member checked me in quickly and kindly.

Fairmont Hotel is located right next to The Hyundai Seoul (더현대 서울) department store.
There's an entrance from the hotel lobby directly to the department store, so you can go straight to The Hyundai without going outside.
Being able to move indoors only, especially in cold weather like this!
It was really great, haha!
2. Fairmont Room: Inside the Guestroom


As soon as you enter, you get a strong sense of luxury.
The bathroom is to the left of the entrance, the closet is to the right, and the guestroom is at the end of the hallway.


The Fairmont Room comes in King bed and Twin bed options.
We booked the Twin bed room.
The bed condition was, simply put, perfect.
It was extremely clean and comfortable.

I absolutely loved the single armchair with a footrest!
It's beautiful and comfortable, perfect for enjoying a beer in the evening and soaking in the ambiance. 👍🏻



A Nespresso machine, a coffee maker,
And even teacups and wine glasses are perfectly equipped.


Inside the drawer-style refrigerator, a simple minibar is provided.

The closet is also spacious!
Open the drawer, and there's a mini safe.

3. Bathroom and Amenities

As I mentioned before, the entrance to the bathroom is on the left side of the hallway.
Beyond that, if you open the sliding door that I thought was just a wall next to the bed, another bathroom entrance appears!
The interior design was unique and absolutely beautiful.

To the left of the entrance, there's a large bathtub.



Another sliding (?) door separates the shower room and the toilet.
When you close the shower door, the toilet door opens, haha. It's a shared door, so when you close the toilet door, the shower door opens...

The amenities at Fairmont Ambassador (페어몬트 앰베서더) are Le Labo (LE LABO)!
It was my first time trying Rose 31.
The scent was absolutely amazing!
It was so much my style that I immediately went to The Hyundai (더현대) and bought the body lotion... it's no secret! ❤️



Even the body lotion and soap at the sink are all Le Labo Rose 31!


According to the Resource Recycling Act, items like toothbrush sets and razors are sold for a fee.
There's also a scale, but since I'm in Seoul (서울) after a long time and planning to eat a lot... I'll just ignore it, haha!

On the first basement level of the Fairmont Ambassador Seoul hotel, you'll find a swimming pool and a fitness center.

And don't forget to bring a swimming cap along with your swimsuit!

It has pretty much all the exercise equipment you could need.
They even have a Stairway to Heaven, haha!
