Book a hotel near Kyobo Tower, Gangnam-gu

"Shila Stay is great. Everything meets expectations. The hotel is well maintained, and the overall experience is very satisfying."

"Avoid this hotel at all costs. Seriously—do not stay here. This place is a complete disaster. The staff is useless and completely unresponsive. The so-called “HQ” phone number doesn’t even connect you to the right person, which tells you everything about how badly this place is run. The kitchenette and washer are absolutely unusable—clearly no maintenance is being done at all. The entire property feels neglected and poorly managed. I booked for five days and couldn’t even last past the second day. They have zero system for handling cancellations or complaints. No manager, no accountability, no support—just chaos. The only thing this place has going for it is the location. Everything else is a joke."

"Tokyo style hotel in Seoul. Positive: Very clean for the price. Negative: Lacks amenities. Mitigant: Buy your own toothbrush, toothpaste, beer, beer food. The front desk person will tell you to buy from the vending machine, but choices and prices are limited. I bought tooth paste & brush there, but for beer & some nuts, I went around the block to a convenience store instead. To me this Toyoku was excellent, hence I leave a review, because I value cleanliness above all. I don’t sleep well if it looks or smells bad, but I slept better than last place. For this price, in Gangnam, it’s very clean, hence, one of the best in value."

"We did not have breakfast. Airconditioning was not setup, so the room was warm because of the regulated heater temp. Staff were excellent. Cleanliness was up to par. It is a no frills hotel. Room was spacious and was very clean which matters to us. Location was near Line 9, very accessible. Will book again. "

"Great"

"The room was nice and clean as well as the view being beautiful. I would highly recommend Shilla Stay Seocho Gangnam Station for anyone staying in Korea!"
