| "Great hotel for the price. The only bad things are that it's a bit far from the subway station and there is nothing near to the hotel except offices and a big park." |

| "We stayed at the Kobos 4 nights. In general we are very happy with the choice and would probably stay there again. It is a newer hotel. Small lobby and no amenities. Room we stayed in was an average Asian size room - bit on smaller size for North American rooms but still comfortable. Nice king size bed, TV with many channels, PC with high speed access (but Korean version of Windows - ended up unplugging network cable and using my own laptop - worked quite well), small fridge restocked with juices and other refreshments daily, and rather large bathroom with nice jacuzzi soaker bathtub and steam sauna/shower. Overall room was clean adn the design was quite pleasant. The air conditioner was quite high tech but to operate it you need to know how to read Korean as all selections on remote and AC LCD display are in korean. Same for remote for lights but these are much easier to figure out. The hotel itself is in Yeoido area, which is mostly business area. It is about 10 minute walk to Yeoido subway station on line #5 which is relatively convienient (but you need to transfer to line #1 if you want to get to Seoul main station or Yongsan station - or pretty much any part of central Seoul). Also since the hotel is quite small no taxi driver will know if it by name - its easiest to ask to be taken to the Lexington hotel which is more known and just 1 block away from Kobos). The best way to get to the hotel from airport is to take the Hannam-Dong bus limo line and the first stop is right outside of the Lexington hotel. Go behind the Lexington hotel, cross the street - go to the second street turn right and Kobos will be on the right side." |

| "The hotel has very friendly staff and is situated in the heart of Seoul's commercial destrict. The rooms and bathrooms are generous in size and are well cared for. I would recommend this hotel as highly comfortable, good value accomodation in Seoul. " |

| "Just want to add that the staff need to be able to speak english more fluently. Apart from this, I would recommend this hotel for business travellers." |

| "Really nice hotel. We were initially placed in a small room but were changed when we requested a DVD player. The new room was bigger and nicer, and had a jacuzzi where the other one did not. I would have hoped that we would have gotten the bigger room when we first booked in, as we had booked in advance and it was not a busy time of year (Chuseok).
The DVD player turned out to have a fault but we could still watch movies ok (which the hotel provided a good selection of).
There was a nice big bed, but no bathrobes, which I was surprised about.
Because of the time of year there was not much open in the area, meaning we had to taxi to get dinner. This wouldn't be a problem at any other time.
Breakfast is served in the cafe (just toast and coffee) between 7 and 9 (?) so you have to get up to eat, as opposed to other hotels I have stayed at where they will deliver breakfast to your door.
The staff were polite and helpful, but I have stayed at hotels of a similar standard for the same price. " |

| "This hotel was great! Really luxurious! Your own computer plus internet connection, flatscreen tv, steamshower and bubblebath. The only bad point was that the bubblebath didn't work." |
