Seoul

From soaring skyscraper retreats to storied garden sanctuaries, Inspectors' Key hotels in Seoul blend the best of old and new in the South Korean capital.

The 10th-anniversary edition features 233 restaurants across Seoul and Busan, including 10 newly awarded Stars within a total of 46 MICHELIN-Starred establishments.

These are the best restaurants in Seoul and Busan, according to our Inspectors for the big 10th-anniversary edition of The MICHELIN Guide in South Korea.

This year’s Bib Gourmand selection welcomes eight new additions, bringing the total to 71 restaurants that strike a balance between quality and price across South Korea.

The top hotels in Seoul are equal parts creative and comfortable, incorporating the arts as much as the sights that make one of the most bustling cities in Asia such a compelling destination.

This 2020 edition celebrates Seoul's rich and dynamic culinary scene with the addition of two new two-star restaurants and seven new one-star establishments, plus the emergence of new styles of contemporary cuisine.

This year’s guide welcomes two new two-starred and five new one-starred restaurants to the capital of South Korea.
