This hotel is in a great location, within walking distance of palaces and temples, while surrounded by a very business-like district. Easy to get around by walking and using the subway. Comfortable and quiet room (if very slightly small). A great place from which to enjoy Seoul

Great stay!

Hotel Breakfast buffet was great- lots of variety but mostly Korean food. Bathroom set up with glass walls and auto flush toilets may not be ideal if you’re traveling with people other than close family - we stay in 2 single bed room as there were no doubles or king sized bedrooms left. Location was quick walk to nearby tourist destinations, without it being busy. The airport bus was 5 min walk from the hotel. Great stay - would come back again

Everything was very good, the only thing that kind of stood out was the very basic design of the room. I would recommend to give it a more personal touck, paintings on the wall, or something like that

I like the fact that easy access or near shopping area, but room is too small, no space for luggages and only mirror in the bathroom, it would be nicer if there is map for places to go or shopping because most foreigners are not formiliar to direction where about so nice to have map to look for the places for directions.
