I had a pleasant stay overall at this hotel. The room was spacious with modern decor and a nice view of Namsan Tower from our window, although the lack of a peephole on the door was a downside. I also got a good rate through Booking which was a bonus.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and filled with toiletries and freebies, making me feel right at home. The service provided by the reception staff was excellent, despite a small misunderstanding about my shopping bag. The location couldn't have been better, just opposite the bustling Myeondong shopping area and a short walk to the subway station. The dining experience was convenient but could be improved with better communication. Overall, a great value for money with fantastic facilities.

The hotel is in a convenient location, right next to Myeongdong train station exit and perfect for shopping. The rooms, although not ready until 3:20 pm, were a good size for a couple and well-designed with a separate bathroom. The service was exceptional, especially with helpful assistance in using foreign languages. However, the dining options were limited, and informing guests about restaurant availability in advance would be beneficial.

The hotel is in a great location, just opposite Myeong Dong shopping street with many food choices nearby. The rooms are spacious, clean, and quiet at night, but showering can wet everything. The service is formal, courteous, and the staff are helpful, managing to communicate in English and a bit of Mandarin. The facilities are modern with a recently finished full renovation, though some find the location a bit far from the airport shuttle stop.

I couldn't have asked for a better location! Right across the road from the vibrant Myeongdong shopping area, this hotel offers cozy and clean rooms with a lovely view of N Seoul Tower. The service was exceptional, and the gentleman who helped me with calling customer service deserves special praise. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the breakfast timing was not the most convenient. Overall, a great value for the money!
