    Aria Breakfast Buffet 아리아 조식 뷔페 Meal budget per person (without drinks) Category 1 (under 60000 KRW, 50 USD) 07:00-10:00 for Mon-Sat and 11:00 for Sunday & Holidays. Free access with 1 guest for Marriott Platinum elite or above members. Extra Charge: 59,000 for adults and 29,000 for Children The window tables have a small garden as a view. Aria Buffet Restaurant has 10 sectors of live stations. Other stations are similar to those of other hotels but some distinctive are: - Udon is one of the popular one, noodles are chewy and soup is light. - Freshly squeezed fruit juices are tasty. - Various confections are sweet, soft and crispy. - Those who like bread will like this Aria because of many kinds of breads. Butter from France (Isigny Beurre Doux) goes well with them.

    It’s the most expensive hotel buffet in Seoul, yet the quality makes it well worthwhile. The selection isn’t huge, which is actually beneficial for quality control—whatever is out is fresh and prepared well. The wide variety of dishes, with Asian noodle station, pasta station, sushi station, etc. is sure to please anyone’s palette. The desserts were amazing, especially fresh strawberries. Had a great time sampling everything (still didn’t get to many things).

    One of the better buffets in Seoul. The breakfast isn’t all that, however. Don’t get me wrong: The quality and variety are there, and they have all the usual suspects, e.g., eggs, breakfast meats, drinks, etc. It’s just not out of this world. The lunch and dinner buffets are much better. A variety of Japanese, Indian, Italian, Korean, and other Western dishes are always good and plentiful. If you ask for something that’s not on display, and they are able to prepare, they will go out of their way to put it on your plate. For example, one time they didn’t have cheese cake in the dessert section, but they went to the bakery and setup a whole cheese cake. Service is also fabulous like most Korean places.

    One of the more high class and popular hotel buffet in Seoul. During our stay in June, we have seen local Koreans queuing up outside the restaurant on numerous days both for lunch and dinner. We decided to give it a try after checking out the food and the environment inside the restaurant. The staff was very friendly and helpful and even informed us we were entitled to 20% discount since we were in-house guests. The price of good quality buffet isn't cheap in Seoul and we sure appreciate the discount we got as the price per person was Won145,000 for weekday lunch buffet. All in all we were satisfied with our meal, although the variety weren't overwhelming but good enough for us and they even provide each table with 2 bottles of good quality water. We dont't really mind less varieties of buffet spread as this allows better quality control. We certainly enjoyed the seafood provided and love both the sashimi as well as grilled meat, esp the lamb which is really delicious. It was a memorable time spent in the Westin Josun.

    Went there for dinner. Phenomenal food. Great seafood options, different types of beef, some great indian food, ice cream. All was wonderful. Expensive but worth every penny. For dinner it was 160K won each.

    If I could give it 0 stars I would. The booking system is absolutely USELESS for foreigners. 1) You are unable to book without a Korean phone number / credit card. 2) When you ring up to attempt to make a booking, you are informed that the bookings will not open up until a certain date (1st of mth). Fair enough but the issue is if you wait until this date you will miss out on bookings for Fri, Sat, Sun and public holidays as you CAN'T BOOK ONLINE NOR GET THROUGH ON THE PHONE. When you explain this is the case from previous experience, they tell you they can't do anything about this. 3) It seems to be available on catch table english website which allows for foreign payment BUT Westin TAKES IT OFFLINE from the english version of catch table THE DAY BEFORE RESERVATIONS OPEN FOR THE NEXT MONTH! My friend and I have both tried to ring up separately and explain but to no avail. Given this restaurant is in a 5 star hotel you would expect they would be able to accept foreign credit cards. This is absolutely ridiculous and backwards.

    There is nothing negtive to say about this place. The food was amazing. Atmosphere was adequate and the attention to detail by the restaurant staff is ideal. Definately a must try if you are in Seoul. 연말이라서 조금 비쌌지만, 맛있었어요. 생각보다 복잡하지도 않고, 추천이요.

    Aria is a buffet at the 조선 Hotel. The delicious foods that were filled at that time were fresh and so delicious. The overall seasoning was not strong and suitable, and I was very satisfied with the sweet cake, fresh fruits, and cold ice cream. It was very good to be able to eat comfortably because of the kind staff all the time. I was so satisfied that I wanted to recommend all the food at the buffet.

    Seafood section was great. Not so much in variety but the quality of taste was excellent.

  • 5/5 Ssobang 5 years ago on Google
    One of the top 3 buffet restaurants in Seoul. It deserves their title with great and tasty foods! All the staffs were very kind and professional as well.

  • 3/5 Anne R. 1 year ago on Google
    I heard josun hotel buffet is one of the best hotel buffet in Korea. But to be honest, it was not as great as I expected. Food taste just okay, it was not amazing. Similar standard to Crown buffet in Sydney.

  • 4/5 Joshua Minki K. 1 year ago on Google
    Time limit is a little bothering (you have about 1hour and 50minutes to eat excluding the entering time). Food was good. But the Price is very high (around $130 per person.)

  • 4/5 Vermilion L. 3 years ago on Google
    Good place to meet business partners casually. But ventillation system doesn't look so good, a bit dry, mixed food smell made me not comfortable.
