Reviews

  • Eliza from Philippines (9/10)

    There is a bus stop for airport limousine bus right in front of the hotel! Ticket exchange and bus station for Seoul City Tour Bus is also less than 100m away from the hotel. Subway is also walking distance. There’s a convenience store right beside the hotel. This hotel has the most accessible location. Staff (front desk and housekeeping) are very friendly too. We never missed our daily supply of bottled water.

  • Rtkp from Singapore (9/10)

    Location was so close to the palace that it is walkable. Hotel offer hanbok rental at competitive prices. Free entry to palace with hanbok. Hotel offer free rental of bicycle to explore the area.

  • David from Australia (8/10)

    Hotel was in excellent location, however needs a little TLC, (Tender Loving Care) it needs to be brought up to
    a standard that guests would be happy with. You can see that the Maintenance has somewhat been neglected,
    some of the staff particularly in the restaurants need to smile more! A smile from staff goes a long way to make guests feel at home.
