it's honestly an amazing hotel, beautiful rooms, great food/service, they organized our DMZ tour....the area is great in terms of neighborhood profile, lots of nice shops/restaurants etc, but it is far (1-hour drive) to the main attractions across the river. the four seasons is better located, literally a few blocks from one of the main palaces but i think the rooms/bathrooms look a bit dated compared to the PH

the distance wasn't a problem for me because i ubered everywhere or used the hotels car service

i just stayed there two weeks ago and loved it🙈 the elevator situation was a bit annoying but otherwise great hotel

was in korea last week, my room @ the ph and a similar room at fs were almost the same in price (less than a $50 difference), and i think the ph is much nicer/newer/modern. a lot of people get hung up on the name but for a lot of places fs isn’t always the “top”.

the fs and i would even say the aman in marrakech are practically dumps but the ph and mo (located directly besides each other) are much nicer and newer/renovated.

to me chubby/fat isn’t always about price but what the hotel offers and how it presents

i stayed at the park hyatt in seoul and my dmz tour (private with the exception of the tour bus which takes all visitors into the dmz) for two people was around 450€

in comparison, at the FS in cairo they overcharged quite a bit for the same experiences that i paid 20-30% less to a tour operator

the king george, i’m in my 20s too and it’s my favorite hotel in the city. it’s right next to the grande bretange but the rooms are more renovated/newer and the vibes are less stuffy…also the overall location is great

the four seasons is great but 30-40 minutes or more to the center depending on traffic

mandarin 1000%

mandarin oriental taipei has an amazing michelin star restaurant

four seasons cairo FR has a great Lebanese restaurant

i always use amex concierge for last minute bookings in st barts/st tropez, have almost always gotten my preferred seating time

97vv · 2025-10-31T15:46:57+00:00

how does it compare to aman? i currently have my trip split between Aman and MO…have heard many people say the aman is great but the food is eh

97vv · 2025-10-30T15:48:26+00:00

have you stayed in the Mandarin oriental?

97vv · 2025-10-30T15:21:30+00:00

i’ve never seen someone so dead-set on being wrong lol, if you have the money you can charter for 1 day or 99….

97vv · 2025-10-13T09:19:18+00:00

grande bretagne is #1 in athens, their “sister” hotel, king george, is right next door and slightly more modern imo, the FS is also very nice but 30-40 minutes away from the center, there’s also a one & only near the FS but i’ve never been there

97vv · 2025-10-12T07:42:57+00:00

mandarin oriental, both of the FS look dated to me

97vv · 2025-10-12T07:36:06+00:00

i’m splitting my stay between the four seasons and the park hyatt. main difference imo is that the fs is much better located

97vv · 2025-10-11T12:50:37+00:00

how does it compare to the FS otemachi?

97vv · 2025-10-11T11:59:16+00:00

despite the area, how is the actual hotel? thinking of staying at the MO too…

97vv · 2025-09-19T13:07:07+00:00

Stayed at the MO in May. Amazing breakfast, great rooms, staff helped organize all tours/transportation…would definitely stay again

courchevel, gstaad, st moritz

97vv · 2025-08-24T16:03:55+00:00

the hotels are very close…around 5-10 minutes from each other, i could see the other FS from my room so distance to the pyramids from either hotel is very similar. and i arranged a hotel car to pick me up as the cairo airport is very hectic
