Stay was comfortable and the hotel is well located. The rooms are quite old and some upgrading works are needed. Overall it has been a good stay. However, beware that staying here in summer can be a struggle as they do not allow your air conditioning to drop below 24°C. They use central cooling and so our rooms were feeling really stuffy and warm.

The hotel offered a comfortable stay with clean rooms and attentive staff. The location was convenient, close to local attractions and dining options. Amenities like free Wi-Fi and breakfast added value, though the gym was a bit small. Overall, a pleasant experience and good choice for both short and extended stays.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The location is great and I´m sure the hotel was great when it first opened but it really needs a renovation. I was in the upper floor, where the rooms are supposed to be better and even so, all the rug in corridors was wrinkled all over. It just feels too tired, a bit of paint would make the difference. The breakfast was very good and again, the location is perfect.

Great hotel in a great location. We were able to explore every night and find new things to do. Very close to a number of subway options which make transport around Seoul so much easier. Would recommend to anyone wanting the convenience of Seoul at your fingertips
