Room TOO hot

The Hotel was nice and clean. However it was a warm March weekend and the hotel didn’t have its air conditioning on. Our room was 27 degrees C (78 degrees F) the entire stay. It was absolutely terrible to try and sleep. They offered us a standing fan which was something, but it didn’t help.

The hotel was in an amazing location, steps to all shopping and food. Hotel itself was good, had to pay an upgrade fee for a king bed which I had reserved a queen. The room direction could have been better since I did upgrade, I was facing a roof of a building. Included breakfast which was good. I would stay again for the location.

Comfortable and convenient

Me and my daughter had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is excellent, and as soon as we walked in, we were welcomed by a pleasant fragrance. Whenever we got tired from walking around, we could quickly return to our hotel room for a short rest and then head back out to explore again. It was very convenient! Room is clean. Bed is very comfortable and the overall experience was both comfortable and convenient. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this hotel.

Service was exceptional !

My recent & 2nd time experience staying 4 nights at this strategically located hotel was alot better than the previous one ! My daughter & I had a wonderful stay, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Check-in & check-out was quick and easy, our room was beautifully appointed and well-maintained. The housekeeping service was impeccable. We especially appreciated the warm welcome note left in the room. Our daily requested for extra towels, toiletries delivered promptly including front desk receptionist, bellhop's assistance with our luggage & taxi booking to airport. Breakfast was delicious, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing and welcoming. We'll definitely be back again soon !

The hotel is situated in a very central location, close to the night market, shopping streets and metro station. The room was of average size, after adding an extra bed made it feel small. The breakfast buffet was good with a wide selection.

Great location

Location is good but our room with a doible bed does not have much room for our luggage. The toilet area quite small and in need of renovating. Unfortunately, our assigned room has a strong perfume odour so they moved us to another room away from our kids rooms. Overall, i guess you pay for the location as it is located in myeongdong shopping area.
