Charles H.

A place to go after plenty of nights out in Seoul enjoying loud places with beer and soju. A speakeasy bar with great ambiance, that helps you disconnect from what’s above. A very wide range of selection of cocktails, inspired by different locations around the world. Very fun experience to order, and the flavors are creative. Highly recommended the spilled milk cocktail ( their twist on White Russian, with coffee and banana milk) or their velvet martini which Odd (the bar manager) recommended. Odd runs a tight ship with all bartenders being extra friendly, talkative but not too much, and really everyone trying to make the experience feel authentic. Kudos for giving a small glass of champagne on arrival, that helps choosing with more calm. Very much recommend arriving to the 5-8 happy hour, where food and drinks are given at a discounted price. Their bites are all flavorful and the portions are decent! Their fried chicken with the sauces is amazing, and felt good to have an upscale version of this Korean staple.

AMAZING! We spent new years eve here with our two amazing bartender/hosts that created an astonishing, local-ingredients focused tasting menu, highlighting the best that Korea has to offer. The setting is inspired by science laboratories; the design language is meticulous, intricate, yet sophisticated all at the same time. Culinary bites were served between each cocktail course by one of the lead chefs at the Four Season's kitchen. Our night was filled with insightful conversations, extraordinary drinks, and great laughs. An unforgettable experience! All the best to our hosts!

Caution: be prepared to spend 10,000 won cover charge and 80,000 won per person as minimum charge if you're not a hotel guest I visited the bar years ago, and fell in love with the vibes and sought to return. To my horror, not only has the place changed, so did the level of service and ridiculous policy Strike 1: as mentioned above, the bar requires a minimum spending of 80,000 won per person. I confirmed this with the bar staff. This is ridiculous because it means you've to have two and a half drinks, whatnot with the drinks priced at around 30,000+ won each Strike 2: when the waiter was pouring my sparkling water, he haphazardly poured and spilled the water on my coaster but did not wipe it (see photo) Strike 3: they're really pushy, constantly circling by my table to ask whether I would like another drink even when my glass is still half full I'm never coming back again; really disappointed by the weird minimum spend policy for non-hotel guests and terrible service. Bring your business to other better and legitimate cocktail bars such as Alice Cheongdam or Bar Cham

An unforgettable night at Charles H inside the Four Seasons Seoul. ✨🥃 From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was nothing short of exceptional — intimate lighting, timeless sophistication, incredible music, and impeccable service that made the entire evening feel elevated from start to finish. The breathtaking views of Seoul paired perfectly with the ambiance, creating the ideal setting for a refined date night experience. We experienced the whiskey tasting menu, and it absolutely did not disappoint. Each pour was thoughtfully curated, beautifully presented, and full of depth and character. You can truly tell the level of craftsmanship and attention behind every detail. Charles H embodies luxury nightlife in Seoul — elegant, immersive, and unforgettable. A place that leaves a lasting impression long after the final glass. 🍸🌃

Charles H isn’t just a bar, it’s a mood. Step inside and you’re instantly wrapped in a world where vintage elegance meets modern edge. The interior is stunning, almost cinematic, with every detail dialed in to perfection. Service? Flawless. The team moves with that rare mix of warmth and finesse. Cocktails are crafted like stories, layered, bold, unforgettable… and the food is genuinely delicious, not just an afterthought. It’s the kind of place where one drink turns into three, and you’re already planning your next visit before you’ve even left. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates style, substance, and a touch of indulgence.
