For Americans new to South Korea, expect hotel rooms to be smaller than what you are used to. Hand Picked Hotel is no exception. Then again, the Hotel rates are far lower than in the USA. If you’re expecting a 4star experience and room sizes, book a Five Star Hotel. I would give a 4 star to the staff, only because I ran into a situation where no staff were present when I accidentally locked myself out of my room. Apparently the young reception crew were out back taking a break together. When I found them, and asked for assistance, they said they were taking a break and will be back in about 5 minutes. In all other instance, all the staff, from doorman to cleaning ladies were curtious and helpful. The hotel itself seems old and run down. We had a false fire alarm due to the elevators malfunctioning. Apparently water had flooded the elevator shafts. Then one of the two elevators the hotel had was shut down for the remainder of our stay. I will chalk it up to the rainy season. Our stay at Hand Picked Hotel was at the end of July.

Just okay…

Pros: Staff is very kind, helpful & English speaking, the cafe in the basement is nice, the maids come in to change your towels, make your bed, take your trash out etc every day, eco friendly shower products, airport bus Cons: Location: 20-30 minute taxi ride to popular spots in Seoul, 40-50+ mins with the subway or bus, scuffs on the walls and furniture, room would get up to 80+ degrees even though the heat was turned off and the curtains were closed, no airflow unless you open a window which I often had to do to cool the room down but then the street noise was very loud and disruptive, toilet didn’t flush very well, yellowing grout in the shower, dirty screens/windows, rips and holes in the towels and bedding (the strings in the bottom of our duvet covers where they’re supposed to tie together were completely ripped off, there was a loud electrical crackling coming from the wall by the door one night too ?… could be a nice hotel it’s just run down and needs some refreshing

Average hotel

The double room is not very spacious which is inconvenient to manage with 2 luggages. It is close to a subway station, but traveling time is longer as it is located in the north of the river. Computer for guest at the front desk is very slow, I wasn’t even able to open the web browser to do my check-in. Very useless! Overall the stay was average, nothing stood out.

Great travel hotel

Loved the shower, the pillows and bedding, condition of room and small sized boutique hotel. Suggestions for improvement: Update the computer in the business center so it has Chrome, Firefox or Microsoft Edge browsers. The only browser on that computer was Internet Explorer, which is no longer used by ANYONE and not supported by newer websites or email sources. This is simple fix for your Computer staff. Also, it would be really nice to have some other options for food in the lower court instead of just dessert foods. The coffee was good, but it would be nice to stock Western -style breakfast food like fruit, cereal, milk, etc. Simple touches that make travel easier. I had to use Starbucks and Paris Bagette to get food for breakfast.
