Reviews

  • Jinsook from United States (9/10)

    very clean and perfect location for us

  • Michelle from United States (9/10)

    Clean, beds were very comfortable, great friendly staff, and very close to subway lines.

  • Christian from Switzerland (8/10)

    The hotel is ideally located right at the express bus terminal, surrounded by a variety of restaurants. Additionally, it is conveniently connected to the Shinsegae Department Store, offering even more dining & shopping options. The location truly stands out for its excellent food choices and for good transportation connections. Furthermore, the gym is among the best I have ever experienced.

  • Yoshiko from Japan (9/10)

    Very good stuff

  • Masako from Japan (8/10)

    Located above Express Bus terminal station, it's incredibly convenient for dining and shopping, and it's also in a great area for a stroll along the Han River, making the location perfect. Breakfast options are varied downstairs at the department store and the terminal, so we didn't choose 80,000 won breakfast at the hotel. The service at the lobby, concierge, and bell desk within the hotel was good. I brought my elderly mother, and they accommodated our request for a late checkout as much as possible. Pool is great with sauna access, but we didn't use the spa since it costs 40,000 won. Oh, but their bed was so comfortable and the bathroom was spacious.

  • Mustafa from Tanzania (9/10)

    Everything, it's an epitome of home away from home. Exceptional Korean hospitality at its best

  • Raphael from Germany (9/10)

    Superb service! Great location! Beautiful hotel.

  • Truc from Guam (9/10)

    We like our room! The bed was cloud like soft, clean, and a very nice feeling. The staff were amazing from check-in to restaurants. Our room had lounge access and the lounge was a great space for a quick bite or drink. Both afternoon and breakfast were great! I didn't get to the pool but I did use the gym at night and it was the biggest hotel gym I've been to. It had every equipment you may need during your stay. The hotel is located next to Shinsegae and a bus terminal. There is a lot of food options and a food market downstairs. I'd definitely stay here again.

  • E from United Kingdom (9/10)

    Surprisingly spacious for a standard twin room and a bathroom with a bath tub and shower. Comfy beds too. Fab breakfast – such a shame we couldn't eat much as it was 6.30am before leaving for the airport. On the whole, it was a relaxing and comfortable stay.

  • Daniel from United States (9/10)

    Everything. The facilities, the staff, the breakfast, were all incredible.
