Recommended Trip type: Family "Great Hotel"

Reviewed by Kristen of Seattle on Jan 21, 2009

We stayed here since we needed free internet access and other 'nicer' hotels charged for it. But after staying here I would consider it one of the nicer hotels. It was great; it had everything we needed and a great price! We could see the Seoul Tower out our windows and the rooms were very clean and modern. There's a convenience store steps away for a soda on the go, the subway station is just down the block and the airport bus stop is right out front. Since Im unfamiliar with the neighborhoods of Seoul, Im not sure if it's the ideal one for tourists, but we found it really convenient for every place we went. There were a couple of street vendors near by that you could get a quick and cheap breakfast at, with a big smile! Extremely helpful hotel staff; they directed me to a pharmacy that I would have never found on my own, which I visited for cold medicine, not because of street vendor food :)

This is a great hotel. The sink was really cool. Free internet was great and hotel readily supplied converter. The bed was super comfy too. The hotel didn't have vending machines but there was a tiny store next door to buy stuff. Subway location just up the street and very easy to use. I would definitely stay here again!

Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Aug 7, 2008

Very modern interior design. Excellent views of the city. Excellent customer service. Very clean hotel. This is one of the best hotels i've been to. Free in-room internet. Flat-screen TV. Japanese-style toilets. There isn't really a lounge area. Nor is the neighborhood very nice late at night, meaning that it's not lively and upbeat as the hotspots such as Myeong Dong, as it is mainly a industrial business district. Well, so it seemed to me. Regardless, this is where i will stay the next time i'm in town. 5 stars.

Recommended Trip type: Business "Great room!"

Reviewed by Em Gee of California on Dec 25, 2007

This is a great find. Great decor, super clean, and with heated toilet seats! The one drawback, while it is in the the center of downtown, it is not immediately near all the action. The action is about a one stop metro ride away or a 15 minute walk. If that doesn't matter, then I highly recommend it. (The metro stop is about 20 steps from the main door), and the airport express bus picks up right from the front door. All in all, a great place to stay, and there is free DSL in every room.

Fin service og et engelsktalende personale. Flot interieur og helhedsindtryk. Det eneste minus var at aircondition-anlægget ikke virkede mens vi var der, så der var konstant 30 grader på værelset. Det var åbenbart et problem på flere værelser mens vi var der, så vi fik tilbudt en blæser. God brunch, som dog ikke var inkluderet i prisen, men til at betale. Ville bestemt komme igen.
