Excellent facility, kind and helpful staff. Basic but has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Very convenient location with great transport links. Good breakfast. The only area of improvement I could think of was maybe more channels for the TV as we only had Korean Cartoon Network lol. Apart from that would recommend 10/10.

We had a great stay at Ibis. We arrived early in the morning and Jacob, the manager very kindly allowed us to check in. The room was decent and the compact toilet was cleverly designed. We slept well and throughly enjoyed the convenience of the location. There were heaps of restaurants and retail around the vicinity. We took the airport limo bus 6015 to and from the hotel. The bus stop was right in front of the hotel. We would definitely stay here again!

Good location and Jacob was amazing! He helped me out greatly when I had to check out of my first room booking and check in to my second room booking (as it was a different room type). Because of him, the move to my new room was made so smooth.

Great location in Seoul.

Nice hotel. Great location. Walking distance to lots of sites. Great restaurants all around. I couldn’t turn down the heat in the room and it got a little warm. Maybe my fault. I would stay here again and recommend it.
