About HotelSeoul.biz

HotelSeoul.biz is a small independent site that turns Korean prices, taxes and fares into clear calculators for visitors to Seoul.

Why this site exists

Visitors to Seoul meet charges that are easy to misread: a hotel rate that leaves out service charge and VAT, a tax refund that is a table and not a percentage, and an airport transfer whose best option depends on the group. Each tool here answers one such question with the numbers that apply in Korea.

Who writes it

The HotelSeoul.biz Editorial Team prepares and reviews every page. We check figures against the publishing organisation's own pages where possible and show the date of the last check on each page. Methods, sources and our correction policy are on the methodology page.

Independence

We do not sell hotel rooms, tickets or tax-refund services and we do not take payment from companies to feature them. The site is supported by advertising shown by Google AdSense. Ads do not influence the calculations or the order of the options.
