Location is not too bad, a 10 minute walk from the closest subway station. However, many taxi drivers do not know whether the hotel is actually situated. Great swimming pool, average fitness facilities. Charges at the hotel's bar are pretty pricey, if not ridiculously expensive: you may be charged almost 10 euros for an espresso. Also, sending a fax to Italy (one page, 20 seconds) turned out to cost slightly more than 5 euros. Breakfast costs in the region of 20 euros - probablyt it's the normal rate for a hotel in Seoul - so I can't object. Staff at reception could smile a little more, concierge very professional - with a kinder approach - on the other hand. The driver of the hotel shuttle proved to be one of the kindest Koreans I've met in my trip. All in all, quite a good deal, though I may tend to choose another hotel, next time, a bit closer (say on foot) to downtown - city hall/myeng dong.

| "Upon check-in, we were pleasantly surprised to be upgraded from a standard room to a business suite as they were unable to cater to our request of a non-smoking room. Even without the upgrade, I believe the rate is very good value for money, compared to other hotels of a similar price and stars. Although more catered to business travellers, the hotel's location (5 mins walk from metro station and only a few stops from the main city centre), quality, and the fact that it is one of about only 10 hotels in the city to offer direct transfer to the airport by KAL limousine bus (at a very reasonable rate) made this hotel a very good choice. Would stay again!" |

| "I have stayed there twice and have had very good experience so far. I appreciated that for both stays, they honored my requests for king-sized bed and non-smoking room, and upgraded me to business floors.
The only minor point to note is with the in-room internet service charge. For my latest trip, my package didn't include internet service, and I was offered the chance to buy the service upon checking in. Once in my room, when I tried to go on-line, Iwas asked to provide password which you would have to call the business center for it. However, upon checking out, I found I was double-charged for the internet--one for what I opted at the counter, and one for calling the business center when I asked for the password. It took a while to explain this to the staff but once clarified the mistake, they were happy to remove the charge.
All-in-all, this is very good value for Seoul." |
