I thoroughly enjoyed my second stay at the Prima Hotel. The hotel is located in a great area, with plenty of food options available, and within easy walking distance of tourist attractions such as Jongmyo Shrine. The breakfast buffet is varied and has plenty of tasty choices, and the room had great air conditioning and a huge number of TV channels to choose from. I hope to stay at the Prima Hotel again soon!

위치는 너무 좋았고요, 직원분들도 친절히 맞아주셨습니다. 한가지 샤워기 고정이 ㅜㅜ 정말 문제였어요. 물이 탕밖으로 새어 욕실 바닥으로 다 나가서 불필요하게 깨끗한 수건들을 낭비해야했습니다. 청소하시는 분들이 아셨을것 같은데 왜 안고치시는건지 모르겠네요.

We loved this hotel. Firm beds, clean rooms, great staff. Walking to subway and Insadog for shopping. Close to Palaces. The rooms are small so if you have a lot of luggage you may want to upgrade to a bigger room. Amenities were fabulous. All in all, I would stay here again. Only the tiniest critique, the bathroom lighting could be brighter for older women wanting to put on makeup.

Everything was good. The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were nice and clean. The only thing is they don't have a belhop service or luggage carts to help you carry your luggages to your rooms. We had to bring five luggages up to our rooms ourselves. Their beds were a little too firm. I'm a side sleeper and it gave me a bit of discomfort when I've been sleeping on one side for a while.
